SPECIFICATIONS

MOUNTING AND WIRING

All wiring should be installed by a qualified heating and air
conditioning contractor or licensed electrician, according to
local and national electrical codes and ordinances.
The control must be secured to an area that will experience a
minimum of vibration and remain below the maximum ambient
temperature rating of 176°F. The control is approved for
minimum ambient temperatures of -40°F.
When mounting the control, any orientation is acceptable.
Choose a location that will not damage, obstruct or place
stress on the control’s terminations, system wiring harness or
system components. After finding a suitable location, drill four
(4) 1/8” holes for mounting control. To ensure proper mounting
hole locations, use the control as a template. When drilling
the holes, take care so that the transformer, wiring harness or
other system components are not damaged. Four (4) #8 sheet
metal screws are provided to complete the installation.
Refer to the wiring diagram and wiring table when connecting
the 50M56U-843 control to other components of the system.
UL approved, 105°C rated 18 gauge, stranded, 2/64” thick
insulation wire is recommended for all low voltage safety circuit
connections.
UL approved 105°C rated 16 gauge min., stranded, 4/64”
thick insulation wire is recommended for all line voltage
connections.
After installation or replacement, follow appliance manufacturer’s
recommended installation or service instructions to ensure
proper operation.

CAUTION

!

WARNING

!

FIRE HAZARD

• Do not exceed the specified voltage.
• Replace existing control with exact model and

dash number.

• Protect the control from direct contact with water

(dripping, spraying, rain, etc.).

• If the control has been in direct contact with

water, replace the control.

• Label all wires before disconnection when serv-

icing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper
and dangerous operation.

• Route and secure wiring away from flame.

SHOCK HAZARD

• Disconnect electric power before servicing.
• Ensure proper earth grounding of appliance.
• Ensure proper connection of line neutral and line

hot wires.

EXPLOSION HAZARD

• Shut off main gas to appliance until installation

is complete.
