Product Overview:
Regulates temperature and coordinates heating, cooling, and fan operation in HVAC systems. The Peco Controls T8168W-3 Thermostat W/WiFi is an OEM programmable digital thermostat designed for fan coil units, PTAC systems, and conventional HVAC applications. Its built-in Wi-Fi supports remote temperature adjustments, scheduling, and holiday programming through the PECO Plus mobile application.
Temperature Control Operation:
The thermostat supports up to two stages of ON/OFF heating and cooling, along with alternative three-wire floating and 0–10 VDC proportional control configurations. Its digital outputs operate valves, dampers, relays, and other supported HVAC components. The proportional control arrangement regulates connected equipment according to temperature demand and the selected system configuration.
Wi-Fi and Scheduling Features:
Built-in Wi-Fi allows users to adjust temperature settings remotely through the PECO Plus application. Programmable scheduling and holiday settings accommodate changing occupancy and operating requirements. The thermostat also supports a single temperature set point, with configurable control settings for different HVAC applications.
Replacement Guidelines:
Replace the Peco Controls T8168W-3 Thermostat W/WiFi when testing confirms a control fault or manufacturer documentation specifies replacement. Before ordering, verify the existing thermostat wiring, power supply, output configuration, and HVAC system type. Confirm whether the application requires ON/OFF, three-wire floating, or 0–10 VDC control. Check fan-speed settings and sensor connections before installation. Follow the manufacturer's wiring and commissioning instructions.
Common Signs of Wear:
- Thermostat display becomes blank or intermittently loses power.
- Connected valves or dampers fail to respond to control signals.
- Fan-speed outputs operate inconsistently.
- Wi-Fi connection repeatedly drops or remote adjustments fail.
- Programmed schedules or settings do not operate as configured.
Equipment Compatibility:
The Peco Controls T8168W-3 Thermostat W/WiFi is an OEM thermostat designed for specified fan coil, PTAC, and conventional HVAC applications. It supports up to two heating and two cooling ON/OFF stages, three-wire floating control, and 0–10 VDC proportional outputs. Fan control supports one analog output or up to three 24 VAC fan speeds. Verify the equipment's voltage, control method, terminal arrangement, and fan configuration before ordering.
