TE-6800 Series Temperature Sensors Installation
Guide
Applications
The 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 DIP switches 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 Zone Bus 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.
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.
Installation
Special Tools Needed
A 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) hex wrench or a Johnson Controls
®
T-4000-119 hex-head adjustment tool is required during
installation.
Accessories
To install the TE-6800 Series Temperature Sensor on a
wallbox requires accessory NS-WALLPLATE-0, ordered
separately.
Mounting
About this task:
Location Considerations
Locate the TE-6800 sensor:
• on a partitioning interior wall, and approximately
5 ft (1.5 m) 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 interference
Note:
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 point
To mount the sensor to the wall:
1. Use a 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) hex wrench or Johnson
Controls 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.
Important:
Do not remove the Printed Circuit
Board (PCB). Removing the PCB voids the
product warranty.
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.
