T8424D Electronic
Multistage Thermostat
The T8424 Thermostat provides electronic control of
single-zone, multistage heating and cooling systems.
First and second stage cooling cycle rates are fixed at 3
cph. Heating cycle rate is selectable. Temperature
indication can be set for °F or °C.
The T8424 Thermostat is powered from the system
transformer. Batteries are not required because setpoints
are held permanently by non-volatile memory.
The T8424 includes a thermostat, wallplate (for wiring
and mounting thermostat) and owner’s guide.
MERCURY NOTICE
If this control is replacing a control that contains
mercury in a sealed tube, do not place your old
control in the trash.
Contact your local waste management authority
for instructions regarding recycling and the
proper disposal of an old control containing
mercury in a sealed tube.
