TE-6800 Series Temperature Sensors Installation Instructions1 Refer to the QuickLIT website for the most up-to-date version of this document.ApplicationsThe TE-68xx-xN00S Series provides temperature sensing in room wall mount applications. It allows local setpoint temperature adjustment and temporary occupancy override. A warmer/cooler dial is included on certain models for minor temperature adjustments from the setpoint. An occupancy override button allows the user to request a time-of-day scheduling override when the space is occupied outside of the normal occupied hours schedule. All sensors have DIPswitches that enable or disable unit functions.Depending on the model chosen, the wires connecting the sensor to the controller can be terminated using a screw terminal block or modular jack connection, offering wiring flexibility. All models include a ZoneBus access port for connecting accessories to access the 6-pin modular jack. This feature allows a technician to commission or service the controller via the sensor. InstallationSpecial Tools NeededA 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) hex wrench or a JohnsonControls® T-4000-119 hex-head adjustment tool is required during installation.AccessoriesTo install the TE-6800 Series Temperature Sensor on a wallbox requires accessory NS-WALLPLATE-0, ordered separately.IMPORTANT:The TE-6800 Series Temperature Sensor is intended to provide an input to equipment under normal operating conditions. Where failure or malfunction of the sensor could lead to personal injury or property damage to the controlled equipment or other property, additional precautions must be designed into the control system. Incorporate and maintain other devices, such as supervisory or alarm systems or safety or limit controls, intended to warn of or protect against failure or malfunction of the sensor.IMPORTANT :Le TE-6800 Series Temperature Sensor est destiné à transmettre des données entrantes à un équipement dans des conditions normales de fonctionnement. Lorsqu'une défaillance ou un dysfonctionnement du sensor risque de provoquer des blessures ou d'endommager l'équipement contrôlé ou un autre équipement, la conception du système de contrôle doit intégrer des dispositifs de protection supplémentaires. Veiller dans ce cas à intégrer de façon permanente d'autres dispositifs, tels que des systèmes de supervision ou d'alarme, ou des dispositifs de sécurité ou de limitation, ayant une fonction d'avertissement ou de protection en cas de défaillance ou de dysfonctionnement du sensor.TE-6800 Series Temperature SensorsInstallation InstructionsTE-68xx-xN00SPart No. 24-10409-1, Rev. GIssued April 2018*24104091g*24-10409-1, Rev. GTE-6800 Series Temperature Sensors Installation Instructions2MountingLocation ConsiderationsLocate the TE-6800 sensor:•on a partitioning interior wall, and approximately 5ft(1.5m) above the floor in a location of average temperature•away from direct sunlight, radiant heat, outside walls, behind doors, air discharge grills, stairwells, or outside doors•away from steam or water pipes, warm air stacks, unconditioned areas (no heating and no cooling), or sources of electrical interferenceNote:The TE-6800 Series sensor is shock and vibration resistant; however, be careful not to drop the unit or mount it where it could be exposed to excessive vibration.The following ambient operating conditions apply:•Temperature: 32 to 131°F (0 to 55°C)•Humidity: 10 to 95% Relative Humidity(RH), noncondensing; 86°F (30°C) maximum dew pointTo mount the sensor to the wall:1.Use a 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) hex wrench or JohnsonControls T-4000-119 hex-head adjustment tool to loosen the security screw on the top of the unit.2.Insert a blade screwdriver into the slot next to the security screw location, and then carefully pry the top edge of the sensor assembly away from its mounting base and remove.3.Pull out approximately 6 in. (152 mm) of cable from the wall, and insert the cable through the hole in the mounting base.4.Align the mounting base on the wall, and use the base as a template to mark the location of the two mounting holes on the surface. Note:Confirm that the mounting base is positioned with the proper edge up. The mounting base is positioned properly when the security screw is located on the top edge of the base.5.Secure the mounting base to the wall using the appropriate mounting hardware (field furnished).6.Set DIP switches for the desired operation. See Setup and Adjustments and Internal Wiring Diagrams for additional information.For models featuring a screw terminal block, wire the unit as illustrated in Figure4.7.Align the tabs on the bottom edge of the mounting base with the slots on the bottom edge of the sensor assembly, and rotate the assembly onto its mounting base.Note:On models featuring a screw terminal block, be certain that the terminal block pins align with the holes in the terminal block.8.Use a 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) hex wrench or JohnsonControls T-4000-119hex-head Adjustment Tool to tighten the security screw and fasten the network sensor assembly to the mounting base.IMPORTANT:Do not remove the Printed Circuit Board (PCB). Removing the PCB voids the product warranty.TE-6800 Series Temperature Sensors Installation Instructions3Wiring Keep wires as short as possible to minimize sensor error. Each 250 ft (76 m) run of 18 AWG wire or 50 ft (15 m) of 24 AWG wire creates 1F° (0.56C°) error for a nickel sensor or 1.5F° (0.83C°) error for a platinum sensor due to wire resistance. To maintain less than 1F° (0.56C°) error for nickel or 1.5F° (0.83C°) error for platinum, hold the total resistance of all sensor wiring below 3 ohms. When wiring the TE-6800, do not run low voltage wiring in the same conduit as line voltage wiring or other conductors supplying highly inductive loads.Internal Wiring DiagramsInternal wiring diagrams are shown in Figure2 and Figure3. Terminal block designations are shown in Figure4. The terminals are identified in Table1. See the Setup and Adjustments section and Figure5 for an explanation of the Light-Emitting Diode (LED) and Push Button (PB) modes. Make connections pairing the following wires:•sensor (Terminal 1 and Terminal 2)•setpoint (Terminal 3 and Terminal 4)•Zone Bus and Common (COM) (Terminals 6 and 7)Shielding is not required. If used, follow the system controller’s recommendations for grounding the shield.Note:The Manual Override PB does not respond when the DIP switch positions are all down (LED mode NO PB, as shown in Figure3 and Figure5). Risk of Property Damage.Do not apply power to the system before checking all wiring connections. Short circuited or improperly connected wires may result in permanent damage to the equipment.Risque de dégâts matériels.Ne pas mettre le système sous tension avant d'avoir vérifié tous les raccords de câblage. Des fils formant un court-circuit ou connectés de façon incorrecte risquent d'endommager irrémédiablement l'équipement.IMPORTANT:Use copper conductors only. Make all wiring connections in accordance with local, national, and regional regulations.Figure 1: Modular Jack Pin Number AssignmentsMainPort18pin # assignmentTE-6800 Series Temperature Sensors Installation Instructions4Figure 2: Terminal Block Wiring Designations (LED ON Mode [Factory Default] and Manual Override PB Enabled)RTD1TemperatureSensor2TemperatureSensor Common3SetpointCommon4SetpointSetpoint524 VAC/ +15 VDC1K Ohms6Common7 Zone BusManual OverrideButton8 LEDLED(3)(4)(7)(2)(5)(6)(8)(1)Internal wiring diagram with DIP switches set as shown on the right, LED Mode = ON and Manual Override push button enabled.ONterm_block1Modular Jack Pin Numbers: Figure 3: Terminal Block Wiring Designations (LED OFF Mode and Manual Override PB Enabled)RTD1TemperatureSensor2TemperatureSensor Common3SetpointCommon4SetpointSetpoint524 VAC/ +15 VDC6Common7 Zone BusManual OverrideButton8 LEDLED(3)(4)(7)(2)(5)(6)(8)(1)Internal wiring diagram with DIP switches set as shown on the right, LED Mode = OFF and Manual Override push button enabled.ONterm_bloc2Not ConnectedModular JackPin Numbers:TE-6800 Series Temperature Sensors Installation Instructions5.
