Sensi simplifies HVAC thermostat wiring

USA: Copeland has launched its Sensi equipment interface module to simplify HVAC thermostat wiring in both indoor and outdoor applications.

This new interface module, launched at this week’s AHR Expo in Orlando, eliminates the need for pulling additional HVAC wiring to the thermostat, helping solve installation challenges currently faced by contractors during system upgrades in light commercial or household applications, including those using heat pumps.

As contractors look to upgrade customers to heat pump systems or integrate indoor air quality products, they often encounter challenges, as this equipment almost always requires more wiring than the equipment it replaces. The Sensi Equipment Interface Module for use with Copeland’s Sensi Touch 2 smart thermostat is an alternative to having to pull additional wires for the upgrade.

Sensi EIM enables the Touch 2 thermostat to manage household IAQ through three universal terminals, supporting humidification, dehumidification and ventilation equipment. It’s compatible with products from other major IAQ manufacturers.

The module also comes equipped with Sensi Connect technology, employing a strong wireless sub-GHz connection to allow communication between products.
