INSTALLATION

When Installing this Product...

Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow

them could damage the product or cause a hazard-
ous condition.

Check the ratings given in the instructions and on

the product to make sure the product is suitable for
your application.

Installer must be a trained, experienced service

technician.

After installation is complete, check out product

operation as provided in these instructions.

CAUTION

Disconnect power supply before connecting wiring
to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage.

Location and Mounting

Locate the C7189 Wall Mount Temperature Sensor where
the setting will not be subjected to tampering.

Choose a location for the sensor on an inside wall

about 5 ft (1.5 m) above the floor. A horizontally
mounted standard 2 x 4 in. (51 x 102 mm) junction
box can also be used at the selected location for the
C7189.

Be sure that the wire distance between the C7189

and the W8900 does not exceed 200 feet.

Make sure that there is good air circulation at

average temperature at the chosen location. Avoid
the following locations because they can introduce
errors in sensor measurements. See Fig. 1:

Hot areas caused by:

• Concealed pipes or ducts.
• Drafts from fireplaces or other heat sources.
• Convection or radiant heat from the sun or

electrical equipment.

Cold areas caused by:

• Concealed pipes or ducts.
• Drafts from windows and doors.
• Unheated areas on the other side of the wall

location.

Dead air areas:

• Behind doors, furniture and curtains.
• In corners and alcoves.

Mark the area on the wall where the C7189 Sensor

or junction box will be mounted.
