Thermostat Figure 1–Two-Pipe Remote Thermostat (Reverse-Acting) Thermostat Selection and Location In general, both one- and two-pipe Tee thermostats have a gain of 2.5 psi per Two-Pipe degree Fahrenheit, unless special Remote-Mounted thermostats are used that provide a T-Stat different gain. The major difference (Reverse-Acting) between them is that a one-pipe thermostat is considered a low- capacity thermostat and a two-pipe thermostat is considered a high- capacity thermostat.

Reversing Relay Calibration Figure 8–Recalibrating Reversing Relay By using the “bias” adjustment on the relay, the factory-set 8.0–9.0 “cross- over” can be changed. To recalibrate, Gage the relay should be connected as illustrated in Figure 8. 1 Pressure Bias Regulator C Adjustment M Screw 3 M If the new desired “cross-over” pressure is 11.0 psi, this must be applied to port #3 by adjusting the pressure regulator . The “bias” adjustment is then turned until 11.0 psi is obtained on the output ga

Loosen damper selection switch screw and align to either the NO or NC pointer with damper pointer and tighten screw. 2. Now determine the type of thermostat that will be used. If a direct-acting thermostat is used, the reset start pressure is typically 8 psi. If a reverse-acting thermostat is used, the reset start pressure is typically 3 psi (see Figure 11)
