UCM 4.2 Installation and Wiring
Communication Wiring
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper
lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to
disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Electrocution and Fire Hazards with Improperly Installed and Grounded
Field Wiring!
Improperly installed and grounded field wiring poses FIRE & ELECTROCUTION hazards. To avoid
these hazards, you MUST follow requirements for field wiring installation and grounding as
described in the National Electrical Codes (NEC) and your local/state electrical codes. All field
wiring MUST be performed by qualified personnel.
Failure to follow these requirements could result in death or serious injury.
Communication Link Wiring
The “Communication Link” is the communication wiring between Tracer Summit® and all VAV box
Unit Control Modules (UCM). Tracer Summit can be connected to the UCM communication link in
a “daisy chain” configuration.
Note:
It is not necessary for each UCM to be connected to the line in sequential order by address.
Also, multiple communication links may be run and terminated at the Tracer Summit.
However, a consistent, documented wiring path will help troubleshoot communication
problems after installation.
Field wiring for the communication link must meet the following requirements:
1.
Communication link wiring must be at least 18 AWG twisted shielded pair wire. Shields must
be grounded at the Tracer Summit or Central Control Panel (CCP) only. More than one ground
reference will cause communications failures. Shields must be daisy chained. Tape the shield
at the last VAV UCM to prevent any connection between the shield and ground. Wire
specifications are as follows:
Plenum Cable
Stranded, tinned copper insulated with extruded FEP. Conductors cabled and shielded with
overall aluminum/Mylar tape and stranded, tinned copper drawn wire. Extruded jacket, 300
volt, 150°C NEC 725-2 (b) class 2, type CL2P, 25 pF/ft.
Non-Plenum Cable
Stranded tinned copper insulated with polyethylene. Conductors cabled and shielded with
overall aluminum/polyester tape and stranded, tinned copper drain wire. Chrome gray PVC
jacket, 300V, 60°C NEC type CM, 24 pF/ft.
