WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

ACI recommends 16 to 26 AWG twisted pair 
wires or shielded cable for all sensors. 
Signal wiring must be run separate from 
low and high voltage wires (24/120/230 
VAC). All ACI thermistors are non-position 
sensitive. All thermistor type room units are 
supplied with a two-pole terminal block. 
The number of wires needed depends on 
the application. All wiring must comply 
with all local and National Electric Codes.

Note:

 When using a shielded cable, be sure 

to connect only (1) end of the shield to 
ground at the controller. Connecting both 
ends of the shield to ground may cause a ground loop. When removing the shield from the sensor end, 
make sure to properly trim the shield to prevent any chance of shorting.

Wiring Instructions for optional ACI/LCD

The optional ACI/LCD must be powered with either a 24 VAC or 9-35 VDC power source. The ACI/LCD uses 
a half-wave bridge rectifier to convert the AC voltage to a useable DC voltage. Two separate cables must 
be pulled for the ACI/LCD to work properly. One 2 conductor 18 to 22 AWG shielded cable for the supply 
voltage and a second 18 to 22 AWG 2 to 4 conductor shield cable for the Temperature sensor, Set Point and 

Override Outputs to the controller.  ACI recommends18 to 
22 AWG twisted pair wires or shielded cable for all sensor 
installations.
