below).
TH132-A
This model has been designed to control a room’s ambi-
ent temperature.
The TH132-A has one temperature sensor located in the
control module.
TH132-AF
This model is designed to use a floor sensor to control the
room temperature.
The TH132-AF has two temperature sensors:
• The first one, installed in the control module, controls
the ambient temperature.
• The second one, installed in the floor (and connected
to the power base), limits the temperature of the floor
(the default setting of this limit is 82°F).
TH132-F
This model is designed to control floor heating systems.
The TH132-F has one temperature sensor installed in the
floor (sensor is connected to the power base).
The TH132 has two switches, located on the upper-left
part on the rear of the control module, which are used to
set the following options:
Early Start
When the Early Start function is enabled (disabled by
default), the TH132 calculates the optimum system start
time to obtain the desired temperature by the set time. To
enable this function:
Position switch #1 down.
Note: When this function is enabled, the
system can be activated before the pro-
gram’s start time.
Temperature Display
By default, the TH132 displays the temperature in °C. If
you wish to change to °F:
Position switch #2 up.
Note: When you switch from °C to °F or vice
versa, the , and setpoints must be
redefined.

TH132 Description
Models Overview
Configure the Switches
Align the bracket tabs on the control module with the
holes located on top of the power base.
This control module must be installed on a PB130 series
power base.
Note: Keep the thermostat's air vents clean and free from
obstructions.
Note: The screw cannot be removed completely.
On the first installation, the screen displays:
0:00, MO, and temperature (room/floor).
For Floor Heating Installations:
One of the two following messages may be dis-
played when a problem occurs:
LO: The floor temperature is below 32°F (0°C), or
the temperature sensor is defective, or not
connected.
The heating indicator is displayed and
the relay is closed (energized).
HI: The floor temperature is above
140°F (60°C), or the temperature sensor is
defective.
nSet the time (HOUR - MIN).
oSet the day (DAY).
If you remove the module from its base for more than
2 hours, the time and day will have to be reprogrammed.
Comfort and Economy Setpoints
These setpoints are associated with the schedule’s pro-
grams (prog. 1 & 3 = Comfort, prog. 2 & 4 = Economy)
and are preprogrammed as follows:
A & AF models— 68°F, 64°F
F model— 82°F, 68°F
To modify a setpoint:
nSet the temperature using and press and hold the
or button until it is displayed on the screen.
oPress MODE/RETURN to exit.
Vacation Setpoint
The vacation setpoint is associated to the Vacation oper-
ating mode and is preprogrammed to 50°F. To modify this
setpoint, repeat above steps.
Floor Temperature Setpoint (AF model only)
The floor temperature limit is preprogrammed to 82°F to
avoid damage to your floor.
To modify, press the adjustment button (below ) using a
pointed object, set the desired temperature using and
press MODE/RETURN to exit.
The TH132 offers three operating modes:
Automatic —Executes the schedule.
nPress MODE to select . The current
program number is displayed.
You can temporarily bypass the current
program by setting a specific temperature setpoint
or by selecting one of the pre-defined setpoint
buttons ( ). The new setpoint will be maintained
until the beginning of the next program.
Manual —Maintains a constant temperature.
nPress MODE to select .
oSet temperature or select one of the pre-
defined setpoint buttons ( ).
Vacation —Maintains the Vacation setpoint
during a prolonged absence.

The schedule is used with the Automatic mode. The
schedule controls the heating system to automatically
switch between the Comfort and Economy temperature
setpoints at the times you have programmed.
The schedule consists of 4 programs per day defined as
follows:
To enter the programs’ start time
To shorten programming, you simply have to enter the
start time for each program.
nPress PGM.
oPress DAY to select the day (hold for 3 seconds to

Note: After 60 seconds of inactivity, the thermostat will
automatically exit programming mode.
To clear a program time:
When you clear a program time entry, the TH132 will
maintain the temperature setpoint of the last executed
program until the beginning of the next program.
nRepeat steps 1 to 3 above.
oPress CLEAR to erase the time entry. The time por-
tion of the LCD indicates --:-- when the program is
inactive.

Temperature Control
The TH132 thermostat works differently than conventional
electromechanical thermostats.
It is equipped with a proportional integral adaptive (PIA)
controller which determines heating cycles by analyzing
the temperature behavior history within the room.
The PIA controller reduces temperature swings providing
accurate temperature control while increasing user com-
fort.
The controller determines the amount of power required
by the heating system to maintain the setpoint tempera-
ture.
When the heating system is activated, one of the following
icons is displayed:

PB130 400-130-001-E 19/9/05 1/1
The PB130-230 power base is used to power a TH13x Series control
module. The resistive load must not exceed 3450 watts (NI) @
230 VAC (15 A).
nOne (1) PB130-230 power base
oOne (1) floor sensor (for AF and F control modules only)
pOne (1) wall plate (optional, in certain countries)
Turn off power to the heating system at the main power panel to avoid
electrical shock. Installation should be carried out by an electrician.
All work must conform to the applicable country standards for
electrical installations and wiring.
This thermostat should be connected on a circuit equipped with
a fuse or a circuit breaker. It must be installed on a certified
electrical box.
For a new installation, choose a location about 1.5 m above the
floor.
For electric baseboards, convectors and fan-forced heaters, the
thermostat must be installed facing the heating system.
The thermostat must be installed on an inside wall.
Avoid locations where there are air drafts (top of staircase, air
outlet), dead air spots (behind a door), direct sunlight or
concealed chimneys or stove pipes.
Model: PB130A-230
Supply: 230 VAC, 50 Hz
Load: 15 A maximum (resistive only)
Power: 3450 Watts (NI) @ 230 VAC
Conformity: EN60730-2-9 / EN50081-1 / EN50082-2
Storage: -20°C to 50°C
Protection: Class 2
Protection degree:IP21
Automatic action: Type 1.B
Environment: Normally polluted
Size(H•W•D): 2.95 x 2.95 x 0.55 in. (75 x 75 x 14 mm)
NOTE: The terminals are designed to handle a cross-section of wire
measuring 0.33 to 3.1 mm2.
nRemove the screw holding the
control module to the power base
and lift the lower part upwards.
The screw cannot be completely
removed.
oBefore making the connections, make sure
that the base covers the electrical box
entirely. If not, install a wall plate at the
back of the base as shown.
pConnect the wires:
•Power:
Terminals 1 & 5
•Load:
Terminals 2 & 4
see note 1
•Pilot Wire:
Terminal 3
see note 2
•Floor sensor:
Terminals 6 & 7
(no polarity)
see note 3
Note 1 If a contactor is used between the thermostat and the load,
install a snubber at the contactor’s coil terminal to ensure
the proper operation of the thermostat.
Note 2 This connection is required on some models only.
Note 3 For the proper operation of the thermostat, the floor sensor
must be centered between two heater wires having a
maximum temperature of 80°C. The floor sensor wire must
not cross any heater wire or be placed close to it.
rPush wires into the electrical box and
secure the base to the electrical box
anchorage. The head of the screw
must be less than 2 mm thick.
sBEFORE installing the control
module onto the base, set the
configuration switches (if any)
on the control module (refer to
the user guide).
WARNING: This power base must be used only with 15-minute
heating cycles. If your control module has a selector switch for
choosing the heating cycle, ensure that the switch is correctly set.
tReturn power to the heating system.
