KMC Controls CTE-5201-16 Thermostat

The KMC Controls CTE-5201-16 is a high-performance, single-setpoint direct-acting electronic room thermostat designed for precise climate regulation in commercial and industrial HVACR environments. Engineered with a modular connector, this unit streamlines field wiring to high-impedance relays or modulating actuators like the KMC MEP-4042 and MEP-4842 series. It operates on a 14?Çô19 VDC supply and provides a stable 2?Çô10 VDC output for proportional control. The integrated LCD display features a clear backlight, offering technicians real-time visibility of space temperatures within a 60 to 85??F range. Advanced calibration is accessible via a flip-open cover, allowing for manual adjustment of proportional band, integral time, and temperature offsets to fine-tune loop response. This analog electronic thermostat also supports unoccupied mode initiation via pushbutton, ensuring energy efficiency during off-hours while maintaining terminal unit control accuracy. Its flame-retardant plastic enclosure and robust internal circuitry make it a reliable choice for VAV system applications and specialized zone control.

Key Benefits

• Direct-Acting Control: Delivers a consistent 2?Çô10 VDC signal to drive high-impedance actuators (10K ohms or higher).
• Simplified Installation: The RJ-12 modular connector reduces labor time and prevents wiring errors during mounting.
• Precision Tuning: Features adjustable min/max limits and proportional-integral (PI) settings for stable temperature management.
• User Interface: Large backlit LCD allows for easy setpoint monitoring in low-light mechanical spaces.
• Versatile Scaling: Easily toggles between Fahrenheit and Celsius readouts to match site specifications.

Common Questions

How is the CTE-5201-16 powered?
This thermostat requires a 14?Çô19 VDC power supply, which is typically provided directly by compatible KMC modular actuators through the connection cable.

Can I use this for dual-setpoint applications?
No, the CTE-5201-16 is a single-setpoint device. For dual-setpoint requirements (heating and cooling), a model like the CTE-5202 would be necessary.

What actuators are compatible with this unit?
It is specifically designed to work with proportional electronic actuators such as the MEP-4042 and MEP-4842 that accept a 2?Çô10 VDC input.
