Operation
Main air enters through the main air passage. Filtered air
goes to Logic Module A and into the pilot chamber of the
valve unit flow amplifier (see arrows in Fig. 17). When the air
reaches Logic Module A, it cannot pass because the spring-
loaded diaphragm is adjusted to pass only 18 psi (124 kPa)
of air. In this condition, no air pressure is applied to the
diaphragm of Logic Module B and it stays in the up position,
allowing air to pass from the pilot chamber through Port B1.
This air is routed on to the flapper-nozzle of the cooling
bimetal and the Thermostat operates in a cooling mode. The
spring-loaded diaphragm of Logic Module B stays open until
air pressure is applied from Logic Module A.
When main air enters the Thermostat at 18 psi (124 kPa), as
previously described for the cooling cycle, the spring of
Logic Module A is overcome and air passes through the
Module. The air pressure is applied to the diaphragm of
Logic Module B, closing off Port B1, and opening Port B2.
Now the air is directed to the flapper-nozzle of the heating
bimetal and the Thermostat controls in the heating mode.
TP974A ROOM TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
General
The TP974A (Fig. 19, 20) is a bimetal-element, proportioning
temperature sensor for either two- or one-pipe applications.
The sensor bimetal is direct acting (signal pressure
increases as the temperature increases). The TP974A is
factory calibrated for 50 to 100°F (10 to 38°C), for a fixed
span of 50°F (28°C). This span is equal to a corresponding
pressure change of 12 psi (83 kPa) for 3 to 15 psi (21 to
103 kPa). The TP974A has no setpoint adjustment and the
TR is factory preset.

Operation
Figure 21 shows a TP974A used with a direct-acting
RP920A Controller for control of a normally open heating
valve. A fall in temperature at the TP974A lowers the signal
to the RP920A. The RP920A responds by decreasing the
BLP to the valve to admit more hot water to the heating coil.
