International Environmental 71520318 Thermostat
The International Environmental 71520318 is a high-performance digital non-programmable fan coil thermostat engineered for precise climate control in commercial and residential 2-pipe and 4-pipe hydronic systems. As the direct replacement for 71520304, this unit offers a seamless retrofit for technicians servicing legacy IEC fan coil units. Operating on 24VAC low voltage, it features 3-speed fan control capabilities (Low, Medium, High) and auto-changeover functionality to maintain tight setpoint tolerances without manual intervention.
Built with a large LCD display and a "No Logo" VenStar faceplate, the 71520318 prioritizes functional clarity and durability. The solid-state sensor ensures 1-degree accuracy, while the non-volatile memory preserves all installer configurations during power interruptions. This thermostat is compatible with auxiliary sensors for unoccupied mode via dry contact, making it a reliable solution for energy-efficient zone management in hospitality and multi-family applications.
