21、ds publication defines the basic standards for the construction and performance of the line-voltage integrally mounted thermostats for electric heaters. It has been developed in the public interest and is designed to provide a better understanding between the manufacturer and the user and to assist
22、the user in selecting and obtaining the proper thermostat for his or her particular need. If a value for measurement as given in this standards publication is followed by an equivalent value in other units, the first stated value is to be regarded as the requirement. The given equivalent value may b

27、008, R2013) Page iv 2013 National Electrical Manufacturers Association History of Standards The Residential Controls Section of NEMA was formed in 1940 to promote the standardization of products within the scope of the Section. These product standards cover definitions, ratings, performance, testing
28、, and dimensions. NEMA Standards are voluntary and are designed to eliminate misunderstandings between the purchaser and the manufacturer. This publication is one of a series sponsored by the Residential Controls Section. Other publications in this series are identified as Pub. No DCXX (followed by
29、the year of issue). The development of NEMA Standards for line-voltage integrally mounted thermostats for electric heaters was prompted by a need for a basic set of standards for construction and performance that were not covered by other standards. Action was first taken in 1963 to develop standard
30、s for line-voltage integrally mounted thermostats for electric heaters by the NEMA Subcommittee for Room Thermostats. The first publication was issued in 1964 and designated DC 13-1964. NEMA DC 3- 2003 covers wall-mounted thermostats.DC 13-1979 (R1985, R1991, R1997, R2002, R2008, R2013) Page 1 2013

36、The control point is the value of the mean air temperature at the thermostat under specified operating conditions. cut-in point: The cut-in point is the air temperature at the thermostat at which it initiates actions. cut-out point: The cut-out point is the air temperature at the thermostat at which
37、 it initiates action. differential, mechanical: The mechanical differential is the difference in temperature set-point between the cut-in and cut-out points as determined by manually raising and lowering the thermostat setting with no electrical load. differential, operating: The operating different
38、ial is the difference between the cut-in and the cut-out points as measured at the thermostat under specified operating conditions. line-voltage integrally mounted thermostat for electric heaters: A line-voltage integrally mounted thermostat for electrical heaters is a device which acts to automatic
39、ally control the temperature of the room or space in which it is installed by directly controlling the electrical load. It is factory installed or field installed within the normal wiring compartment of the heating device such as a space heater or a baseboard heater. load, electrical: The electrical
40、 load is any load expressed in volts with appropriate: a. Amperes and power factor, or b. Horsepower, or c. Motor currents, full load and inrush, or d. Volt ampere pilot duty designation, or e. Non-inductive load load, heating: The heating load is the rate of heat loss of the space being controlled.
41、 offset: Offset is the intentional difference between the cut-in point and the temperature set-point with no electrical load. operating range: Operating range is the temperature difference in C (F) from the maximum to the minimum scale setting of the thermostat. rating, electrical: The electrical ra
42、ting is the maximum specified electrical load of the thermostat. temperature set-point: The temperature set-point is the indicated temperature to which the thermostat is set. sensing element: The sensing element is the part of the thermostat that senses temperature and initiates control action. ther
43、mostat calibration: Thermostat calibration is the temperature at the cut-in point as measured at the thermostat for a specified scale setting.
