EC3-X33 Superheat Controller and ECD-002 Keypad/Display Unit
Description Electrical Installation
EC3-X33 is a universal superheat controller used in conjunction • Refer to the electrical wiring diagram for electrical connections.
with Emerson Electrical Control Valves EX4...EX8. • Do not apply voltage to the controller before completion of wir-
ing.
• Ground the metal housing with a 1/4 in spade connector.
• Important: Keep controller and sensor wiring well separated from
mains wiring. Minimum recommended distance 1.2 in.
Warning: Use a class II category transformer for 24VAC power
supply. Do not ground the 24VAC lines. We recommend to use
individual transformers for EC3 controller(s) and for 3rd party
controllers to avoid possible interference or grounding problems
in the power supply. Connecting any EC3 inputs to mains voltage
