T25 Type Two-Stage Room Thermostat
Low or Line Voltage--Also for Automatic
Changeover of Heating and Cooling
Application
T25 thermostats are for line or
low voltage service requiring
accurate control of two operating
functions. Choice of functions
include:
•control of two stages of
heating, such as two-rate
unit heaters or duct furnaces,
commercial heat pumps, etc.
•control of two-stages of
cooling, such as two-stage
compressors, dual
compressor units, etc.
•automatic changeover
control of heating and
cooling on three and four
pipe fan coil installations and
similar applications;
automatic changeover from
heating to cooling for unit
operation
All Series T25 thermostats are
designed for use
only
as
operating controls. Where an
operating control failure
would result in personal injury
and/or loss of property, it is
the responsibility of the
installer to add devices or
systems that protect against,
or warn of, a control failure.
Typical uses are for compressor
control, fan coils, etc. Two
SPDT switches permit
independent control circuits.
Each switch may be wired to
make or break the control circuit
on rise in temperature. A
removable jumper across the
“common” terminals is supplied
as standard.
Features
•Contact units are
dependable, dusttight, field
proven Pennswitches.
•A sensitive liquid charged
element and an efficient
lever mechanism provides
close operating differential
without anticipators.
Fig. 1 -- T25 Two-Stage
Thermostat.
•A bimetal thermometer is
standard.
•A semi-concealed high
temperature stop, which can
be set in the field, is built-in
feature of the thermostat.
•Attractive style matches
other Johnson Controls
thermostats and humidistats.
General Description
T25 thermostats have pleasing,
contemporary styling that is
adaptable to any decor. The
thermometer is a dependable
easy reading, bimetal pointer
type.
The liquid charged sensing
element is formed to achieve
maximum sensitivity to
surrounding air temperature
changes. (See Fig. 2.) Coupled
with a highly efficient diaphragm
and lever mechanism, the
element actuates totally
enclosed Pennswitch contact
units to provide a low operating
differential and dependable
switching action without the
necessity of either heating or
cooling anticipators.
Specifications

Fig. 2 -- Interior of T25. Note
high temperature stop and
convenient wiring terminals.
Elimination of anticipators
makes every thermostat a
“stock” control, which may be
used on single or two-stage
heating and/or cooling over a
wide range of current loads, at
voltages up to 277 V.A.C.
Thermostats are available with
concealed adjustments. All
thermostats have Allen-head
cover screws to discourage
unauthorized tampering.
T25 thermostats have a
concealed high temperature
stop with adjustments in 2°F
(1.1°C) increments between
68°F (20°C) and 80°F (27°C).
This feature prevents
unauthorized people from setting
the thermostat for temperatures
above a pre-determined
maximum.
Operating Temperature
Differential
The operating temperature
differential of any room
thermostat depends on: the
current flowing through the
thermostat (amperage load); the
velocity of air over the
thermostat; the rate of
temperature change to which the
thermostat is subjected; and,
whether the thermostat is
operating heating or cooling
equipment.
Graphs (Fig. 4, 5) show the
operating temperature
differentials of these thermostats
under various electrical load
conditions.
Fig. 3 -- T25 with concealed
adjustment.
Fig. 4 -- Heating operating
differential for T25.
Fig. 5 -- Cooling operating
differential for T25.
The air velocity was 25 feet per
minute, (.1 m/sec) and the rate
of temperature change was 6°F
(3.3°C) per hour. Higher air
velocities and/or lower rates of
temperature change result in
lower operating differentials.
(See Figs. 4 and 5.)
