TEC3000 Series On/Off or Floating Fan
Coil Thermostats Installation Guide
Applications
The networked TEC3000 Series Thermostat Controllers are stand-alone and field-selectable
BACnet® MS/TP or N2 networked devices. Wireless networked models of the TEC3000 Series
Thermostat Controller are also available. On/Off or Floating Fan Coil and Individual Zone
Thermostat Controllers provide control of the following:
• Local hydronic reheat valves
• Pressure-dependent variable air volume (VAV) equipment with or without local reheat
• Two- or four-pipe fan coils
• Cabinet unit heaters
• Other individual zone equipment using an on/off or floating control input
The networked models feature a field-selectable Building Automation System (BAS) BACnet MS/
TP or N2 communication capability that enables remote monitoring and programming for efficient
space temperature control. The wireless models are compatible with the WNC1800/ZFR182x Pro
Series Wireless Field Bus System that enables communication with a building automation system
(BAS). All models include a USB port configuration that reduces installation time by allowing
simple backup and restore features from a USB drive, which enables rapid cloning of configuration
between like units.
Some models feature built-in occupancy sensing capability. These thermostat controllers maximize
up to 30% energy savings in high-energy usage commercial buildings, such as schools and hotels,
during occupied times by using additional standby setpoints.
All models feature an intuitive onboard touchscreen UI with backlit display that makes setup and
operation quick and easy. Multiple fan configurations are supported for fan coil equipment types,
as follows:
• Single-speed
• Multi-speed (two or three discrete speeds)
• Variable-speed/EC motors (0 to 10 VDC control)
Some models support dehumidification on two-pipe fan coil units with reheat, and four-pipe fan
coil units with or without reheat. When no heating is required, the thermostat controller monitors
space humidity and activates dehumidification control as necessary. Heat and/or reheat is used as
required to maintain the space temperature. For optimal dehumidification performance, use a fan
coil unit that has a multi-speed or variable-speed fan (VSF).
Important: The TEC3000 Series Thermostat Controller is intended to provide an input to
equipment under normal operating conditions. Where failure or malfunction of the thermostat
controller 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 thermostat controller.

Important: Le TEC3000 Series Thermostat Controller est destiné à transmettre des données
entrantes à un équipement dans des conditions normales de fonctionnement. Lorsqu'une
défaillance ou un dysfonctionnement du thermostat controller 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
thermostat controller.

TEC3000 Series On/Off or Floating Fan Coil Thermostats Installation Guide2

Location considerations
For networked models, locate the TEC3000 Series Thermostat Controller:
• On a partitioning wall, approximately 5 ft (1.5 m) above the floor in a location of average
temperature, allowing for vertical air circulation to the TEC
• Away from direct sunlight, radiant heat, outside walls, outside doors, air discharge grills,
stairwells, and from behind doors
• Away from steam or water pipes, warm air stacks, unconditioned areas (not heated or cooled), or
sources of electrical interference
• In a clear path between the integrated passive infrared (PIR) occupancy sensor (if equipped) and
the space being monitored
For wireless models, also locate the thermostat controller:
• Outside of a recessed area, metal enclosure, or shelving unit
• On the same building level as the other wireless devices on the same personal area network
(PAN)
• At least 2 in. (51 mm) away from any metal obstruction
• In the direct line of sight to other wireless devices on the same PAN. Signal transmission is best
if the path between the TEC3000 and other wireless devices is direct as possible. Line of sight is
desirable but not required. See Table 1 for recommended and maximum distances.
• Away from metal and large solid obstructions (including equipment rooms and elevator shafts
and concrete or brick walls) between the TEC3000 and the ZFR Pro Router/Repeater or ZFR Pro
Coordinator Radio
• Within range of two or more wireless devices on the same PAN. Redundancy in the layout
provides the best reliability in wireless installations
• At least 20 ft (6 m) from a microwave oven
For integrated PIR models, be sure that the thermostat controller is located centrally, where
occupant movement is frequent. Ensure that the unit is not blocked by a plastic tamper resistant
enclosure (such as the GRD10A-608). The plastic enclosure blocks the occupancy sensing capability.
The use of insulating foam pads is required for installations where wiring passes through the wall
to the thermostat.
For wireless models, the effective transmission range and distance for indoor applications vary
because of wireless signal absorption and reflection due to metal obstructions, walls or floors, and
furniture found in typical building interiors.
