COMPONENT MATCH-UP
- 6636 Series Package Air Conditioner. (Reference specifications for model number breakdown and identification.)
- 6636 Series Electronic 12 VDC Wall Mounted Thermostat. This thermostat is pre-wired to two electrical connectors. Both the thermostat supply and control wiring can be quickly attached (plugged in) to the thermostat.
THERMOSTAT OPERATION AND SPECIFICATIONS
THERMOSTAT OPERATING AND WIRING REQUIREMENTS
The 6636 series air conditioner is designed to be operated from an RV Products electronic wall mounted thermostat. See component match-up sheet for thermostat part number and description. The thermostat is designed to operate 12 VDC controlled heating and air conditioning systems. The thermostat is designed to operate 12 VDC controlled heating and air conditioning systems. The thermostat must be operated from a 12 VDC power source.
The thermostat can control one stage heating and two stages of cooling. (The thermostat used to operate the 6636 series air conditioner must be capable of controlling two stage cooling systems.)
Maximum thermostat output for any load including the furnace control wire must not exceed one amp. Should the installer desire to hard wire this connection rather than purchasing the receptacle; the three pin connector can be cut from the wire ends, the wires stripped and spliced to complete the required connections. For further wire identification and function, reference Chart 2.
IMPORTANT Current draws in excess of one amp or shorting any thermostat wires will cause permanent thermostat failure.
The installer must provide the power source used to operate both the thermostat and its control circuits. This power source must provide one amp of continuous current at 12 VDC.
The thermostat is pre-wired at RV Products with two quick connect electrical receptacles. There is one 9 pin receptacle carrying the 8 control wires required to operate the air conditioner, and a 3 pin receptacle carrying the two power supply leads and the one furnace control lead.
The thermostats 9 pin receptacle mates with a receptacle on one end of the RV Products 35′ pre-wired thermostat harness. See component match-up sheet for harness part number and description.
The thermostat 3 pin receptacle has no mate in either the thermostat harness wiring or the thermostat package. Should the installer desire a total plug in system, then the mate for this connection will have to be purchased separately. Both the receptacle and the pins are manufactured by AMP (Aircraft Marine Products, Inc., Harrisburg, PA). In most cases the parts can be obtained through a local supply house.
The AMP part numbers are:
- 3 pin male receptacle #7-480700-0
- female pin (for male receptacle) #350218-1
IMPORTANT
When using wire nuts to complete electrical connections, always apply a U.L. approved electricians tape and secure the wire nuts to the wires in a workmanlike manner.
THERMOSTAT HARNESS
RV Products produces a pre-wired 35′ thermostat wiring harness for this system. See component match-up sheet for harness part number and description. This harness consists of the eight wires required for operating the air conditioner and quick connect receptacles for both the thermostat and the air conditioner connections.
At the thermostat, the connection is completed with a square 9 pin receptacle that slides together and snap-locks in place. When making this connection:
- verify that the connectors are properly aligned
- do not use excessive force when joining the connectors
- verify that the connectors have snapped together on both sides.
The thermostat umbilical attaches to the unit with a rain-tight fitting. To install, remove the ring-nut from the rain-tight fitting and insert the wire end and fitting into the hole in the wirebox side. The ring-nut will now slide over the wire end and reinstall onto the rain-tight fitting threads. Tighten securely. The wire end plugs into the receptacle on the wirebox printed circuit board. Insure that the plug “snap-locks” into the receptacle. Routing of the thermostat wiring harness must comply with all local and national electrical codes. Collect any excess thermostat harness in the air conditioner mounting compartment. Be sure to secure the excess wiring within the compartment. Coiling the excess harness into 3″ diameter circles or larger is acceptable.
THERMOSTAT MOUNTING
Follow the instructions packed with the thermostat to select a location for thermostat mounting. Pay particular attention to choose a location which is not isolated from air currents and not subject to direct discharge from a cold air register. Included in the thermostat installation instructions is a mounting template to aid in the installation.
IMPORTANT
To reduce the potential for thermostat failure: always connect the -12 VDC supply lead to the BLUE wire in the thermostat 3 pin receptacle before removing the “anti-static” protective covering. This will ensure that the thermostat circuitry is not damaged by static electricity during installation.
THERMOSTAT CHECKOUT
- Before engaging power to any system, ensure the following:
All tools have been removed from the equipment.
All wiring is attached, routed and properly secured.
All panels (both mechanical and electrical) are in place.
The thermostat system switch is placed into the “OFF” position.
All co-workers have been warned that the equipment is being energized. - System wiring may be checked by referring to the wiring diagram located on either the back of the wiring box door or the back of the manual. The wiring diagram is a total system diagram including the wall thermostat and air conditioner. The wiring diagram is drawn so that all wiring box components are shown “positionally correct”.
- Before beginning the checkout procedure, thoroughly read the checkout instructions in either the thermostat installation instructions or in the owners manual provided with this product.
Keep in mind that the wall thermostat provides a 3 minute delay between off and on cycles. A 2.5 minute delay begins both as soon as the compressor cycles off, and as soon as the thermostat becomes energized. After completion of the 2.5 minute delay, an additional 30 second delay will begin as soon as the thermostat demands cooling.
There is also a 30 second delay between 1st and 2nd stage cooling. This is to prevent both compressors from starting simultaneously. To ensure that the thermostat calls for both 1st and 2nd stage cooling, verify that the cool setpoint is well below actual indoor temperature. - After complying with steps 1 through 3, engage power to all systems and begin checkout procedure.
