HONEYWELL TRADELINE T6052A (01) PDF Document

Locate the HONEYWELL TRADELINE T6052A thermostat about five feet above the floor on an inside wall where it will be affected only by the average temperature of the room. The T6051A model may be mounted either vertically or horizontally.

If you are mounting your HONEYWELL TRADELINE T6052A horizontally, the coverplate must be changed. To do this:

1. To remove the vertical coverplate, bend the four corner tabs to the outside and push out on the cover.

2. Place the horizontal coverplate on the cover frame and bend the four corner tabs to the inside to secure it.

1. Mount a 2 by 4 inch outlet box either vertically or horizontally, as desired.

2. Run conduit between the outlet box, power source, and the unit being controlled. Leave about six inches of wire in the box for connections.

3. Place the mounting plate on the outlet box either vertically or horizontally. Insert the two furnished mounting screws, leaving them loose enough to move the mounting plate for leveling.

4. Level the mounting plate and then tighten the mounting screws.

5. Connect the heating and/or cooling system wires or the Series 60 equipment wires to the back terminals of the thermostat.

6. When wiring is complete, secure the fiber insulator by snapping the holes in the flap over the switch rivet heads. When the normally open terminal is used, clip the flap to allow it to pass around the wire.

7. Hang the thermostat on the mounting plate tabs.

8. Take the socket-head cover mounting screw (furnished) and insert it in the tab at the bottom of the base. Do not tighten it yet. Replace the cover.

9. Insert the set point knob into the socket-head screw and tighten. This fastens the cover and thermostat to the mounting plate previously attached to the outlet box. Remove the knob.

Before making any wiring connections to your HONEYWELL TRADELINE T6052A, it is critical to disconnect the power supply to prevent electrical shock and equipment damage. All wiring must agree with local electrical codes and ordinances. Refer to the wiring diagrams in the manual, instructions packed with the subbase, and the heating and/or cooling equipment manufacturer’s instructions for specific hookups.

The HONEYWELL TRADELINE T6052A was calibrated at the factory for accuracy at 1,000 feet above sea level. You may need to reset it for your local altitude. Each notch on the calibration mechanism represents 2,000 feet. Use the chart below to determine how far to move the indicator. If you do not know your altitude, consult your local U.S. Weather Bureau or Public Library.

After the HONEYWELL TRADELINE T6052A is installed and wired, operate it manually to make certain it is connected properly. The checkout procedure will depend on the type of hookup and the equipment being controlled.

For cooling control check: Turn the setting knob to move the indicator down the scale. This initiates a call for cooling, and the cooling equipment should respond.

For heating control check: Turn the setting knob to move the indicator up the scale. This initiates a call for heat, and the heating equipment should respond.

For heating/cooling control: Check both heating and cooling as described above.

For Series 60 control check: Cycle the equipment through the thermostat and make sure it functions as intended.

If the HONEYWELL TRADELINE T6052A is controlling a compressor, you must allow at least two minutes between “on” cycles to equalize the internal pressure. Rapid cycling might damage the compressor and overload the electrical circuit.

To lock the set point on your HONEYWELL TRADELINE T6052A, first complete any altitude adjustments. Then, replace the cover and set the cover screw with the set point knob. With the knob in place, move the set point indicator to the desired temperature setting. To complete the process and lock the setting, remove the set point knob.
