6A. WIRING AND SET-UP – MODEL A77 CONTROL

The Model A77 will measure the relative humidity and turn the dehumidifier on and off to control the humidity level to the desired setting. The 
humidity setting can be adjusted from the control, while the display allows easy access and monitoring of the humidity level in the space. It is 
recommended that the Model A77 be mounted at/near canopy height. Shield the Model A77 from direct exposure to HPS or LPS lighting.

NOTE:

 Use 18-22 AWG wire for control wiring.

Humidity can be controlled using the internal dehumidifier control, a Model A77 control, or a different external control like a thermostat.

Installing an external control eliminates the need to run the dehumidifier blower for sampling, as the control is constantly measuring the humidity 
close to the canopy. When the humidity level rises above the setting, the dehumidifier is turned on.
