CAUTION
Improper installation and operation of this control could result in damage to the equipment and possibly even personal injury. It is your
responsibility to ensure that this control is safely installed according to all applicable codes and standards. This electronic control is
not intended for use as a primary limit control. Other controls that are intended and certified as safety limits must be placed into the
control circuit.
STEP ONE
GETTING READY
Check the contents of this package. If any of the contents listed are missing or damaged, please contact your wholesaler or tekmar sales
representative for assistance.
Type 262 includes:
One Boiler Control 262, One Outdoor Sensor 070, One Universal Sensor 071
Data Brochures D 262, D 070, D 001, User Brochure U 262, Application Brochures A 262,
Essay E 003.
Note:
Carefully read the details of the Sequence of Operation to ensure that you have chosen the proper control for your application.
STEP TWO
MOUNTING THE BASE
Remove the control from its base by pressing down on the release clip in the wiring chamber and sliding the control upwards. The base
is then mounted in accordance with the instructions in the Data Brochure D 001.
STEP THREE
ROUGH-IN WIRING
All electrical wiring terminates in the control base wiring chamber. The base has standard 7/8” (22 mm) knockouts which accept common
wiring hardware and conduit fittings. Before removing the knockouts, check the wiring diagram and select those sections of the chamber
with common voltages. Do not allow the wiring to cross between sections as the wires interfere with safety dividers which should be
installed at a later time.
Power must not be applied to any of the wires during the rough-in wiring stage.
• Install the Outdoor Sensor 070 and Boiler Sensor 071 according to the instructions in the Data Brochure D 070 and run the wiring
back to the control.
• If a DHW Sensor 071 is used, install the DHW Sensor according to the installation instructions in the Data Brochure D 070 and run
the wiring back to the control.
• If a Room Temperature Unit (RTU) 062 or 063 is used, install the RTU according to the installation instructions in the Data Brochure
D 062 and run the wiring back to the control.
• If a Slab Sensor 072 or 073 is used, install the Slab Sensor according to the installation instructions in the Data Brochure D 070
and run the wiring back to the control or RTU.
• If a Remote Display Module (RDM) 040 is used, install the RDM according to the installation instructions in the Data Brochure
D 040 and run the wiring back to the control.
• If a tekmar Zone Control is used, run the wires from the Zone Control to the 262. Refer to the instructions supplied with the Zone
Control.
• Run wire from other system components (pumps, boilers, etc.) to the control.
• Run wires from the 120 V (ac) power to the control. Use a clean power source to ensure proper operation. Multi-strand 16 AWG
wire is recommended for all 120 V (ac) wiring due to its superior flexibility and ease of installation into the terminals.
• 120 V (ac) to be provided from a 15 A circuit breaker and must have a circuit disconnect installed.
• Connect ground wires to ground bus bar in wiring area.
STEP FOUR
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE CONTROL
The installer should test to confirm that no voltage is present at any of the wires. Push the control into the base and slide it down until
it snaps firmly into place.
Powered Input Connections
120 V (ac) Power
Connect the 120 V (ac) power supply to the
Power N and Power L terminals (6 and 7).
This connection provides power to the microprocessor and display of the control. As well,
