AIRXCEL 9630-351 INSTALLATION, OPERATION & APPLICATION GUIDE

AIRXCEL 9630-351 Thermostat

Application

The thermostat wiring is factory installed by the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer). RV Products suggests the thermostat wiring be a minimum of 18 gauge. The thermostat is intended for use with a 12 VDC control circuit that does not exceed 1 amp. The thermostat is equipped with a replaceable 2 amp fuse located on the base of the thermostat. The fuse is designed to “open” if the circuit is mis-wired or if there is a short in the system. Before replacing the fuse, the cause of the failure must be located and corrected.

Caution This thermostat should be installed by trained technicians only. Adhere to all local and national codes and ordinances. Disconnect all power to the system before installing, removing, or cleaning.

Operation

The display indicates the mode and the room temperature. When the mode button is pressed once, the thermostat will wake. If your thermostat is equipped with a backlight, the backlight will illuminate. When the mode button is pressed again, the mode will change. Press thebutton to wake the thermostat; the set temperature will display and the mode will flash. Press thebutton again to change the set temperature. The thermostat will return to sleep mode after 5 seconds if no button is pressed.
In electric heat mode, if the heat pump is unable to satisfy the thermostat call, the heat pump will go into lockout (See heat pump and backup heat example for conditions of heat pump lockout). When thermostat is in lockout, ELEC will flash on the display.
In gas heat mode, the gas furnace will provide the only source of heat and the heat pump is locked out.

Temperature
Mode	Range
	°F	°C
Cooling (set)	33°F to 99°F	1°C to 37°C
Heating (set)	33°F to 99°F	1°C to 37°C

Refer to the operation chart for a more detailed listing of operation sequence.

Installation

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD – Turn off power at the main service panel by removing the fuse or switching the appropriate circuit breaker to the Off position before removing the existing thermostat.

A. THERMOSTAT LOCATION
This thermostat is a sensitive instrument. For accurate temperature control and comfort, the following considerations should be taken into account:

1. Locate the thermostat on an inside wall about five feet above the floor. Pick a dry area where air circulation is good.
2. Do not install thermostat where there are unusual heating conditions, such as direct sunlight, near heat producing appliances (televisions, radio, wall lamp, etc.), or a furnace or air conditioner supply register.

B. INSTALLING THE THERMOSTAT

1. Place mounting screw template against the wall where thermostat will be mounted.
2. Using supplied screws, mount the template to the wall.
3. Remove plastic from between mounting screws.
4. Connect thermostat wiring to motorcoach wiring.
5. Place thermostat on mounting screws and gently push the thermostat down to lock the thermostat onto mounting screws.
6. Turn on power to the thermostat.

Wiring Diagrams

Note: When used to replace a thermostat which previously did not use plugs, please remove the plugs and use wire nuts as needed.
