1.0 Principle of Operation of T775U Controller

1.1 Principles of control of temperature and humidity.

Commercial systems requires a high control accuracy of temperature and humidity.

The environment to be conditioned is controlled at a targeted dew point

temperature and then reheated to a specified air temperature. Maintaining a

constant dew point and air temperature will produce a very constant relative

humidity [1].

Figure 1 Principles of control the temperature and humidity

A. The air is directed through a water spray area with a closely controlled

temperature. The water spray is adjusted to maintain the dew point

temperature of the targeted condition. As the air passes through the water

spray, it is cooled down to the temperature of the water and approaches

saturation.

B. The air leaves the spray chamber through a mist eliminator and is mixed with

air that has by-passed the spray area.

C. The air passes over an electric heater (to warm the air back to the desired

temperature).

The temperature of the water spray is automatically adjusted by the T775U

Controller by the feedback from a RH sensor in the controlled space.

2

Also the power of heating of the electric heater is adjusted by the T775U

Controller by the feedback from a temperature sensor in the controlled space.

1.2 T775U Controller

The Stand-Alone Controller uses a variety of sensors via an analogue input for

processing and analysis. T775U uses a PID controller algorithm to compute the

relevant output to control Humidity and Temperature. T775U can make all

decisions at the access point - the device is able to operate independently from

any other device or system[2].

The T775U has an easy setup for configuring control of temperature or humidity

with a range of inputs, such as:

0-5 Vdc

0-10 Vdc

4-20 mA

Control humidity with % RH displayed, CO2 with ppm displayed, or control pressure

with psi, Pa, or kPa displayed. Outputs include two modulating and two relay

outputs that can each have their own set-point. The T775U offers complete

versatility in a single control[3].

T775U Universal Stand Alone Controller (see Fig.2) that controls pressure,

humidity, temperature or any control medium that inputs 1097 Ω PTC, 0-10 Vdc or

4-20 mA. [1].

Figure 2 Honeywell T775 Series 2000 Stand-Alone Controller

The T775U Controller is equipped with 2SPDT, 2 Analogue outputs and 2 x sensor inputs

and can be used for applications where electronic accuracy and remote sensing of

temperature, humidity or pressure are required [2].

2.0 End-User Instructions.

2.1 Features.

Graphical Interface

User-friendly Graphical Interface (see Fig.3) - easy and the intuitive programming

will save time [6].

Protective Enclosures

Possible purchase the controllers with NEMA 4X enclosures - to protect them from

water and corrosion.

Internal Time Clock Scheduler

The Setback and Disable Output options, controlled by the built-in scheduler or

digital input). Helps save energy during unoccupied times and gives more control of

the equipment without needing to purchase an additional time clock. Run times

can be displayed for the first 4 relay outputs.

Modulating High Or Low Limit Control

To protect equipment from freezing or overheating, models have the ability to

adjust the control temperature at Sensor A to protect equipment at Sensor B. The

controller adjusts its modulating output to prevent exceeding the user-entered

High or Low limit for Sensor B

Sensor Calibration

Calibrate input sensors up to +/-6°C for temperature and up to +/-10 % of range for

other sensors (e.g. pressure, humidity) to compensate for resistance drops in

longer sensor wire runs (see Fig.4).

All T775s can be powered with low or line voltage (24/120/240 Vac)

No need to add a separate transformer

Configurable Minimum Off Time

Setting a minimum off time can protect equipment and reduce the need for a

separate time delay device (See Fig.8).

Figure 8 Minimum off Time Setting

Optional Configurable Integral and Derivative Times Standard on every device.

This feature provides pinpoint (PI or PID) control on modulating outputs set up.

The reaction times and behaviour can be adjusted to give more control. Anti-

integral wind-up is standard (See Fig.9).

3.0 Outline of Installation and Connectivity Failure to follow instructions given by manufacture guidelines could result in

damaged controllers or hazardous conditions.

The manufacturer recommends that installation be provided by a trained,

experienced service technician.

Following installation, product operation must be re-checked and verified

3.2 General Mounting Instructions

IMPORTANT

The producer recommend to install the controller in environment free of acid

fumes or other deteriorating vapours that can attack the metal parts of the

controller circuit board.

The controller should be installed in a place that allows clearance for wiring,

servicing, and removal.

Poor wiring will cause erratic readings from the sensor. For proper operation, good

mechanical connections are necessary to both the sensor and the controller.

7

3.21 Controller Mounting

The controller can be mounted on any convenient interior location by using the four

mounting holes provided on the back of the enclosure. The controller dimensions can be

checked in Fig. 12, [6].

The controller may be mounted in any orientation - however, installation follow the

orientation shown in Fig. 12 permits proper viewing of the LCD display and use of the

keypad.

3.22 Humidity Sensor Mounting and Location

Humidity Sensors (Sensor A only). The controller accepts 0-10 Vdc or 4-20 mA input with a

range of 0-100%. A range of sensors are available [7] and these may be mounted on a wall

or panel. During the installation the user is requested to follow the installation

instructions specific to the sensor used.

Figure 12 controller dimensions

8

3.23 Temperature Sensor(s) Mounting and Location

Temperature sensors may be located up to a maximum of 304 metres from the T775U

controller. The sensors may be:

mounted on a wall or panel for sensing space temperature

strapped to a pipe

inserted in an immersion well for hot or cold water sensing

taped to a standard cap or bulb holder for duct air sensing.

The manufacturer recommends mounting sensors with the lead wires exiting the bottom of

the sensor to prevent moisture or condensation entering the sensor [6]. See the available

Temperature Sensors (Sensor A or B) to purchase separately[7].

3.24 Wiring Connections Access.

The two screws on the left side of the enclosure can be removed to gain access to the

wiring connections. It is important that one avoids damaging the fragile ribbon cables

connecting the keypad and LCD display to the controller circuit board [6].

3.25 Controller Wiring

Used during the installation - wiring must comply with specified on installation wiring

diagrams or with applicable electrical codes and ordinances. Controller wiring is

terminated to the screw terminal blocks located inside the device[6].

Access to the terminals can be gained through standard conduit knockouts (A through E -

See in Fig. 13) located around the enclosure:

• Knockouts A and B are designed for sensor and low-voltage wiring.

• Knockouts C, D and E are designed to gain access to the load relay output terminals and 120/240 Vac power wiring.

NOTE: Only one source of power can be applied to the T775U (24 Vac or 120 Vac or 240 Vac).

IMPORTANT:

A 24 Vac power must not be used to power any external loads if 120 Vac or 240 Vac

is used to power the T775U.

A separate earth ground is required.

Electrostatic discharge can short equipment circuitry.

The wiring connection terminals are shown in Fig. 13 and are described in Table below

(See Fig. 14) [6].

3.26 Humidity Sensor Wiring

Sensors with a 0-5 Vdc, 0-10Vdc or 4-20mA input to the T775U must be wired to the Sensor

“A” terminal. Sensor B is used only as a temperature input. Sensors use standard AWG 18

unshielded wire. For cable runs greater than 25 feet, shielded cable is recommended [6].

For wiring details, see Fig. 15 (below).

Figure 15 Humidity Sensor Wiring [8]

3.27 Temperature Sensor Wiring

For wiring details, see Fig. 16 (below).

Figure 16 Temperature Sensor Wiring [8]

11

3.28 CHECKOUT

All connections made at the controller terminals should be inspected and verified with the

installation wiring diagrams. In case the wiring changes are required - the power from the

controller must be cut off. The power connection should be double checked. The power

can be applied after the controller is mounted and wired [6].

4.0 Setup Setup provides the ability to change the factory default settings for the temperature

sensors and outputs, to enable/disable reset control, and to enable/disable scheduling.

4.1 Humidity Sensor Calibration

A calibration parameter is available using Setup mode. The calibration range is +/- 10% of

the Min Value to Max Value range setup for the sensor. Examples of the Humidity Sensor

Calibration [8].

4.2 Temperature Sensor Calibration.

As wire length increases, resistance increases and thus the temperature reading increases.

If it necessary to calibrate the sensor input see "CALIBRATE (Sensor A or B)" [8].

4.3 Interface Overview.

The T775U controller uses an LCD panel and 6-button keypad to provide status information

and permit user input of the programming, setup, and scheduling parameters [9].

4.4 Programming the T775U.

The controller must be programmed before being placed into service. The Programming

process uses a hierarchical menu structure that is easy to use [9].
