RC-112 / RC-112B Two Speed Heat Pump
3 Stage Heat / 2 Stage Cool - With Energy Efficient Control
Thermostat Installation Instructions
APPLICATION
This RC-112 thermostat is applicable to heat pumps with two stages of heating and cooling, plus a third stage of
heating called "auxiliary" heating. The heat pump may have a two-speed compressor (low and high speeds), two
compressors (stage 1 and stage 2) or a "superheater" or other device as the second stage. In normal operation,
stage 1 and 2 (or low and high speed) will be used as required to maintain the set temperature. In heating mode,
the auxiliary heating will only be used if the heat pump cannot maintain a rate of temperature rise with both
stages running (high speed).
The RC-112 is capable of being controlled both locally and by remote control. It offers programmability, stand-
alone operation, and robust, optically isolated communications with automation systems, utility control systems,
and personal computers. The RC-112B is equipped with a “cool blue” backlight display.
