4. ENVIRONMENTAL SENSORS

  

(Terminals 24, 25, and 26)

Sensors are all connected in parallel. Use #18 AWG 

extension wire for distances up to 1000 ft. (304.8m) and 

#12 for up to 2000 ft. (609.6m). Running sensor wiring 

and power line voltage wiring in the same conduit is not 

recommended.

5. HIGH TEMPERATURE LIMIT SENSOR

  

(Terminals 1, and 2)

The high temperature limit sensor is connected across 

terminals 1 and 2. There is no polarity requirement. 

If the high temperature limit sensor is not used, then a 

470k ohm resistor must be connected in its place, across 

terminals 1 and 2 of the EUR–5A. This is necessary to allow 

the EUR–5A to operate without the sensor. If the circuit 

is left open, the Heat indicator on the EUR–5A panel will 

flash and the control will be disabled.

6. RCU–3 INSTALLATION

  

(Terminals 4, and 5)

The RCU–3 remote control unit mounts in a single gang 

switch box. It can be located up to 500 feet (152.4 m) 

from the EUR–5A at a location convenient for observing 

snow melting system operation. The RCU–3 connects 

to the EUR–5A at terminals 4 and 5. There is no polarity 

requirement.

7. REMOTE HEATER TOGGLE CONNECTIONS 

 

(Terminals 28, and 29)

This  is  for  a  user-supplied  panel-mounted  momentary 

pushbutton switch for Heater Cycle control. It can be 

mounted at a location that may be more convenient than 

the EUR–5A panel. The connections are simply shorted 

together when the pushbutton is pressed. There is no 

polarity requirement.

8. ENERGY MANAGEMENT COMPUTER INTERFACE 

 

(Terminals 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16)

The  EUR–5A  provides  three  contact-closure  outputs  to 

the EMC to indicate operational status with indications of 

Supply Present, Snow Present, and Heat On. These floating 

relay contacts share a common connection (terminal 13).

•  The SUPPLY PRESENT terminal (14) connects to the 

common terminal (13) when the EUR–5A is receiving 

24- volt power.

•  The SNOW PRESENT terminal (15) connects to the 

common terminal (13) when the sensors report the 

presence of ice or snow.

•  The HEATER ON terminal (16) connects to the common 

terminal (13) while the heaters are on. When connecting 

to ECM connect as follows:

•  OVERRIDE ON: when the ECM connects terminals 10 

and 11 this forces the heaters to be on.

•  OVERRIDE OFF: when the ECM connects terminals 10 

and 12 this forces the heaters to be off.
