The unit circuit board incorporates six relay outputs with the following uses: 
 

 

K1 – Auxiliary relay for cooling valve on a two valve unit or heat valve on a                                     

dehumidification unit. 

 

K2 – Heating Relay  

 

K3 – Alarm Relay 

 

K4 – Compressor Relay 

 

K5 – Low Fan or Fan Relay for belt drive units 

 

K6 – High Fan or Compressor #2 on belt drive units 

Each of these relays have, in parallel, a green LED indicator that lights up when the relay is energized. 

 

The board incorporates digital inputs that are opto-coupled to a 24V AC source. These too have amber 
LED  indicators  located  near  the  input  locations  that light up when the input is closed. These inputs 
include: 

 

High Pressure Switch 

 

Low Pressure Switch 

 

Heat Call (W on thermostat terminal) 

 

Cool Call (Y on thermostat terminal) 

 

Fan Call (G on thermostat terminal) 

 

Auxiliary (A on thermostat terminal) 

 

Compressor shutdown (24V AC signal thru O/O). 

   Providing a continuous 24V potential to O/O will terminate and prevent compressor                    
operation. This can be used for duty cycling, or for minimizing power consumption during a power 
failure while maintaining the heating function. 

 

Unit shutdown (24V AC signal thru A/O). Providing a continuous 24V AC potential to A/O will 

terminate and prevent unit operation. This can be used for a simple night shutdown. On both 
arrangements a single small 24V AC can shutdown many units. ¼  VA is required per unit.  

 

Finally, the board has four analog inputs provided via thermistors. These inputs are as follows: 
 

 

Ta – Discharge Air Temperature 

 

Tr – Refrigerant Temperature 

 

Tw – Outgoing Water Temperature 

 

Co – Condensate Level 

Ta, Tr, And Tw are 10k Ohm NTP thermistors, while Co is a 100 Ohm NPT thermistor. These Inputs do not 
have LED displays.
