The Programmable Thermostat 521 is

designed for three different modes of

operation: single stage heating, two stages

of heating with a fan, or one stage of

heating and one stage of cooling with

a fan. Two auxiliary sensors may be

added to measure the floor, outdoor or

room temperature. A Slab Sensor 079 is

included to measure floor temperature to

protect the floor from overheating and

enhance comfort. The programmable

schedule supports either a 7 day or 24

hour schedule with 2 or 4 events per day.

A permanent temperature hold button

overrides the programmable schedule.

An optional Adaptor Plate 012 is available

to allow the thermostat to mount onto a

single gang electrical box.

Choose the placement of the thermostats early in the construction process to enable

proper wiring during rough-in.

Consider the following:

• Interior Wall.

• Keep dry. Avoid potential leakage onto the control.

• Relative Humidity less than 90%. Non-condensing environment.

• No exposure to extreme temperatures beyond 32-122°F (0-50°C).

• No draft, direct sun, or other cause for inaccurate temperature readings.

• Away from equipment, appliances, or other sources of electrical interference.

• Easy access for wiring, viewing, and adjusting the display screen.

• Approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) off the finished floor.

• The maximum length of wire is 500 feet (150 m).

• Strip wire to 3/8" (10 mm) for all terminal connections.

• Use standard 5 conductor, 18 AWG wire.

Removing The Thermostat Base

To remove the thermostat base:

• Locate the tab on the bottom of the thermostat.

• Push the tab with either your thumb or with a

screwdriver.

• Lift the thermostat front away from the

thermostat’s base.

Mounting The Thermostat

If mounting directly to the wall:

• Drill holes and install the wall anchors.

• Feed the wiring through the large hole in the thermostat base.

• Fasten the thermostat base to the wall using the wood screws to the wall

anchors.

• Terminate wiring to the wiring strip.

• Push the thermostat front onto the thermostat base.

If a single gang box is used:

• Adapter Plate 012 is required (sold separately).

• Feed the wiring through the hole in the adaptor plate and the thermostat base.

• Fasten the adaptor plate to the gang box.

• Fasten the base of the thermostat to the adaptor plate.

• Terminate wiring to the wiring strip.

• Push the thermostat front onto the thermostat base.

Thick Floor Coverings (greater than 3/8" (10 mm))

If a thick floor covering is to be installed directly to the subfloor, a groove 1/8" (4 mm) wide

by 1/16" (2 mm) deep can be cut into the back of the flooring material to accommodate

the wire for the sensor. Ensure that the sensor is located in such a position that the

attached wire is able to reach to a suitable junction location.

Splices under the floor covering should be avoided

to ensure trouble free operation. A groove 3/16"

(5 mm) wide by 3/16" (5 mm) deep by 1-3/4" (45

mm) long should be cut to accommodate the

sensor. The sensor should be located mid way

between the heating elements to ensure a proper

temperature reading.

If it is not practical to cut a groove in the surface

covering, follow the installation method used for

thin floor coverings.

Slab Sensor 079 Installation

Thin-Set or Thin-Pour Applications

If the floor covering is to be installed over either a thin-set or thin-pour material of sufficient

depth, the 079 slab sensor can be placed directly into either the thin-set material or the

thin-pour material and covered over. Ensure

that the sensor is located in such a position that

the attached wire is able to reach to a suitable

junction location. Splices within the thin-set or

thin-pour should be avoided to ensure trouble

free operation. The sensor should be located

mid way between the heating elements to ensure

a proper temperature reading.

Tile Floor Coverings

If a Slab Sensor 079 is to be installed into an existing tile floor with sufficiently large

grout lines, the sensor and wire can be installed in one of the grout lines between the

tiles. Select a low traffic area of the floor that is mid way between the heating elements

for the sensor location. Ensure that the sensor is located in such a position that the

attached wire is able to reach to a suitable junction location. Splices within the grout

should be avoided to ensure trouble free operation. Remove the appropriate grout line

and place the sensor and wire in the floor. Re-grout the area.

Installing the Sensor to the Bottom of a Subfloor

If the sensor is to be installed to the bottom of a subfloor, cut a piece of 1" (25 mm)

thick rigid insulation into a 6" (150 mm) by 6" (150 mm) square. A groove 3/16" (5 mm)

wide by 3/16" (5 mm) deep by 1-3/4" (45 mm) long should be cut into the insulation to

accommodate the sensor. Place the sensor in the groove and sandwich the sensor

between the insulation and the subfloor. Use a suitable fastening method to affix the

insulation to the subfloor.

Retrofit Installations

------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------

The Slab Sensor 079 is supplied with 10' (3 m) of cable. If a longer length is

required, 24 AWG or larger wire can be spliced onto the two wires from the sensor.

The splices should be properly soldered and protected in an accessible junction

box. Follow the sensor testing instructions given in this brochure and then connect

the wires to the control.

Slab Sensor 079 Wiring

Do not run sensor wires parallel to telephone or power cables. If the sensor

wires are located in an area with strong sources of electromagnetic interference,

shielded cable or twisted pair should be used or the wires can be run in a grounded

metal conduit.

Slab Sensor 079 Testing

A good quality test meter capable of measuring up to 5,000 kΩ (1 kΩ = 1000Ω) is

required to measure the sensor resistance. In addition to this, the actual temperature

must be measured with either a good quality digital thermometer, or if a thermometer

is not available, a second sensor can be placed alongside the one to be tested and

the readings compared.

First measure the room temperature using the thermometer. Disconnect the S1 or S2

and Com wires from the thermostat. Using an electrical meter, measure the resistance

of the S1 or S2 and Com wires at the thermostat location. Using the temperature

versus resistance table, estimate the temperature measured by the sensor. The sensor

measurement and thermometer readings should be close. If the test meter reads a very

high resistance, there may be a broken wire, a poor wiring connection or a defective

sensor. If the resistance is very low, the wiring may be shorted, there may be moisture

in the sensor or the sensor may be defective. To test for a defective sensor, measure

the resistance directly at the sensor location. Once the test has been completed,

reconnect the S1 or S2 and Com wires to the thermostat.

Do not apply voltage to the temperature sensor terminals at any time as damage to

the sensor may result.
