Description The TH 192 HC thermostats are proportional single output, dual setpoint, 2-pipe (high
air capacity) sensor controllers. Each thermostat includes a wall mounting plate for
installation in a variety of rough-in terminal boxes. Sensitive bimetals respond to
temperature change to modulate control air through a flapper nozzle. Two setpoint dials
are provided. When the supply air pressure changes from 18 to 25 psi (124 to 172
kPa), the thermostat automatically switches from the cooling to the heating setpoint
respectively. Air connections are made with 5/32” (4 mm) O.D. plastic tubing, directly to
the thermostat chassis for retrofit applications or with plug-in adapters (provided with
the TH 192 rough-in terminal box or optional accessories) which slide into the wall
mounting plate.
Features •Direct and reverse acting models for heating and cooling modes.
•Separate adjustable temperature setpoint indicating dials for heating and cooling.
•Fahrenheit or Celsius setpoint dials.
•Highly sensitive bimetal thermostatic element.
•Individual field adjustable sensitivity with graduated scale.
•Operating mode automatically switches between heating and cooling on change of
main air supply pressure.
•Integral field adjustable limit stops.
•Control pressure test port accessible without removing cover.
•Easily replaceable thermometer, setpoint dials, filters, and restrictor plate.
•Covers available for concealed or exposed thermometers and for either concealed,
key, or exposed knob adjustment and setpoint indication.
•Standard plastic thermostat covers provide Desert Beige or white finish.

Application TH 192 HC thermostats provide all-season temperature control for two-pipe hot
water/chilled water heating and cooling applications (Figure 1) such as air conditioners,
space heaters, and unit ventilators. Thermostats maintain energy management
(maximum economy) and occupant comfort automatically as seasons change from the
heating setpoint (65-68°F, 10-20°C) to the cooling setpoint (76-80°F, 24-27°C).
TH 192 HC thermostats are available with covers that conceal or expose the setpoint
adjustment dials.

Operation
Heating-Cooling
Operation
The TH 192 HC thermostat combines direct or reverse acting heating control with direct
or reverse acting cooling control. In direct acting control, an increase in temperature
increases the control air pressure and a decrease in temperature decreases the control
pressure. In reverse acting control, an increase in temperature decreases the control air
pressure and a decrease in temperature increases the control pressure.
The TH 192 HC provides two separate bimetal elements; one for heating mode control
and one for cooling mode control. Each bimetal element operates independently of the
other. Use of two different supply air pressures accomplishes changeover from heating
to cooling modes. A supply pressure of 18 psi (124 kPa) or 25 psi (172 kPa) positions a
changeover switch so a changeover relay operates in the cooling or heating mode
respectively.

Thermometer
Calibration 1. Use a test thermometer to read the current room temperature.
2. Place a screwdriver in the center of the thermometer assembly (Figure 5). Carefully
rotate thermometer assembly until pointer tip indicates the correct room temperature.
NOTE: Avoid breathing on or touching the bimetal spiral since this influences the
temperature reading.
Changeover Point
Adjustment The changeover point is factory set to occur between 19 and 22 psi (131 and 152 kPa). The
changeover point can be field adjustable to occur between 14 and 22 psi (96 and 152 kPa).
1. Connect pressure gauge or manometer to measure supply pressure to thermostat. Use
30 psi (207 kPa) supply through a positioning switch so pressure can be fully variable.
2. Determine current change over point. Turn cooling dial so cooling and heating control
pressures are different. Then note the changeover point on the control gauge as the
supply pressure changes.
3. Remove thermometer for access to changeover adjustment screw. Use a 1/16’ Allen
Hex Key to adjust changeover adjustment screw as follows:
a. If changeover is too high, turn off supply pressure and rotate changeover
adjustment screw clockwise. One turn decreases changeover point by about 3 psi
(20 kPa). Turn on supply pressure and recheck to verify new changeover point.
b. If changeover is too low, turn off supply pressure and rotate changeover
adjustment screw counterclockwise. One turn increases changeover point by
about 3 psi (20 kPa). Turn on supply pressure and recheck to verify new
changeover point.

Figure 6. Changeover Point Adjustment.
Limit Stop
Adjustment Thermostat limit stops define the
minimum and maximum thermostat
setpoints. The limit stops engage in the
setpoint cam gear teeth and cause
interference between the setpoint cam
gear and the adjustment knob gear.
To change limit stop settings, use needle
nose pliers to pull limit stop between the
setpoint cam gear teeth. Rotate limit
stop to its new position. Do not pull limit
stop any more than necessary to clear
the gear teeth. Changing the limit stop
position one gear tooth changes the limit
stop setting by 1-1/3°F (0.7°C).
Figure 7. TH 192 HC Limit Stop Adjustments.
Sensitivity
Adjustment To change thermostat sensitivity, use a flat blade
screwdriver to carefully move the sensitivity slide to
the desired position as follows:
Graduation

rigid end of the
bimetal element
4 psi/°F
(50 kPa/°C)
Graduation

NOTE: If the thermostat sensitivity is adjusted, the
thermostat must be recalibrated.

Thermostat
Calibration The thermostat is factory calibrated to a control pressure of 7.5 psi (52 kPa) when the
setpoint and the ambient temperature are both at 72°F (22°C). The factory sensitivity setting
is approximately 2.5 psi/°F (31 kPa/°C). No adjustments are required if these settings are
appropriate for the application. If the thermostat has been tampered, the sensitivity
changed, or is out of adjustment, use the following steps to re-calibrate the instrument.
Cooling
Calibration
Step 1 —
Remove cover using 192-632
calibration tool. Verify room
temperature is between 70 and 80°F
(21 and 27°C).
Step 2 —
Verify that supply pressure is 18 psi (124 kPa).
Set cooling dial to room temperature by turning
the exposed adjustment knob or using a hex key
as shown. Allow thermostat to stand for about five
minutes to adjust to the new setting.
Step 3 —
Moisten needle and insert 192-633 test
gauge and needle adapter in the test
port. Read control pressure.
Step 4 —
If control pressure does not read 7 to 8 psi (48 to
55 kPa), turn calibration screw using 192-632
calibration tool or 1/8” (3.2 mm) wrench until
pressure is 7 to 8 psi (48 to 55 kPa). The sensing
element is now in calibration and the setpoint can
be changed to the desired room temperature.

Troubleshooting Before troubleshooting thermostat per Table 4, make certain there is clean dry supply air
at 18 psi (124 kPa) for cooling and 25 psi (172 kPa) for heating. Use test probe gauge
and needle adapter to measure control pressure at thermostat test port.
The output pressure test port is accessible without removing the thermostat cover
through the 8th opening from the top left side for two-pipe thermostats.

1. Remove thermostat chassis from wall. Terminal does not have a ball check valve.
NOTE: You must close off the supply air. For example, use a connector with the supply air
terminal plugged.
2. Remove two Phillips head screws from connector on back of thermostat chassis. Pull
connector out of recess. If necessary, pry connector loose with a screw driver, but be
careful not to damage restrictor plate and gasket.
3. Remove gasket from under connector. Remove restrictor. Remove second gasket from
under restrictor.
4. Use restrictor replacement kit 192-321 to replace gasket, restrictor, and second gasket.
NOTE: The restrictor plate is keyed to ensure proper orientation during installation.
5. Remove filters from existing connector and insert in new connector. Or, if filters are
dirty, use restrictor replacement kit 192-321 to replace filters.
6. Use chassis tube connector replacement kit 192-525 to replace connector and mounting
screws.
