R8845U Universal Switching Relay PRODUCT DATA
FEATURES • Replaceable, socketed relays. • Replacement relay common to other Honeywell hydronic replacement controls. • Two troubleshooting LEDs. • Push-to-test button. • Replaceable transformer fuse. • Low-voltage contact ratings for Powerpile® applications. • Long-life DC relay drive control technology. • Relays can be used with external 24 Vac or 24 Vdc supply, line-voltage control, or with internal 24V transformer. • One model replaces several competitor models. • One model replaces many Honeywell models: R182A,B,C,J; R482A,B,C,J; R845A, R882A,B,C,J and RA832A. (See Table 1, Replacement Cross Reference.)
APPLICATION The R8845U Universal Switching Relay provides intermediate switching of line- and low-voltage devices from a line- or lowvoltage controller. The R8845U may be used to replace several Honeywell or competitive switching relays and is typically applied in hydronic heating systems.

R8845U UNIVERSAL SWITCHING RELAY
SPECIFICATIONS IMPORTANT The specifications given in this publication do not include normal manufacturing tolerances. Therefore, this unit may not exactly match the listed specifications. Also, this product is tested and calibrated under closely controlled conditions, and some minor differences in performance can be expected if those conditions are changed. TRADELINE® Model: R8845U Universal Switching Relay with 24V controller for switching one- or two-line voltage loads and one low-voltage load.
Humidity Ratings: 0 to 90% rh, non-condensing. Electrical Connections: No. 8 captivated wire clamp screw terminals. Finish: Zinc plated steel. Knockouts: Case Bottom: Three 1/2 in. (13 mm) for conduit box. Case Top: One 7/8 in. (22 mm) for wiring. Approvals: Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Listed: File no. E4436, Guide no. XAPX. Canadian Underwriters Laboratories Listed: Guide no. XAPX7.
Electrical Ratings: Voltage: 120 Vac, 60 Hz. Thermostat Heat Anticipator Setting: 0.12A. Transformer Ratings: Primary: 120V, 60 Hz. Secondary: 24 Vac, 12 VA maximum, 9 VA available for external loads. Secondary protected by replaceable 1A automotive fuse. Contact Ratings: 7.4 AFL, 44.4 ALR on each set of line-voltage contacts; maximum connected load is 2000 VA. Switching Action: Two Spst, plus Powerpile® rated low-voltage Spst. If normally closed contacts are needed, use RA889A. Temperature Ratings: Ambient: -20°F to 120°F (-29°C to 49°C).
Dimensions: See Fig. 1. Cross Reference: The R8845U replaces Honeywell models R182A,B,C,J; R482A,B,C,J; R845A, R882A,B,C,J and RA832A, as well as several competitive models. See Table 1 for additional cross reference information. Thermostat Compatibility: All Honeywell electromechanical and most electronic 2- or 3-wire. Select thermostats with 0.12A heating anticipator settings to match the electrical rating of the R8845A Switching Relay. Replacement Parts: 32002190-001 Replacement Relay. Replacement Fuse: Use a 1A automotive fuse.

Mounting 4-7/16 (118)
In replacement applications, mount the new relay in the same location as the old relay. For new installations, locate the relay vertically on a solid wall or partition as close as possible to the device to be controlled. Select a location that is easily accessible for installation and service.

When two or more line-voltage load devices are to be controlled in parallel, the total current must not exceed the rating for the relay load outputs. Never connect load terminals to a load that uses more current than the amount listed in the electrical ratings on the relay. See Table 2 for maximum lowvoltage wiring length specifications.

The R8845U consists of a transformer, two Spst line voltage relays, a Spst low-voltage relay and wiring terminals. When line-voltage is applied to the transformer, the relay is powered on thermostat contact closure. The relay may also be used to provide electrical isolation in low-voltage circuits, if powered from a 24 Vac or 24 Vdc external source connected to W(T) and C. Fiber barriers separate line- and low-voltage connections.

Keep the cover on the relay during normal operation and remove only for service and checkout. Relay contacts require no cleaning; they are arranged to close with a wiping action and are self-cleaning. The contacts may turn black after being in service for some time; this discoloration does not prevent proper operation. After installation is complete, operate system through at least one cycle from the controller to make certain the relay controls the equipment as intended.

• The LED should light if there is a call for heat or if the test button is pressed. • If the LED remains off during a call for heat and turns on when the Test Button is pressed, the thermostat is not operating correctly. • If the LED remains off on a call for heat and also remains off when the Test Button is pressed, the R8845U is not operating correctly. Check the fuse; if the fuse is intact, replace the control.
