2. Safety Information

Read and understand all instructions before installing or operating this transformer. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or property damage.

Disconnect Power: Always disconnect power at the main service panel before installing, servicing, or removing the transformer.
Qualified Personnel: Installation and servicing should only be performed by qualified, licensed electricians or HVAC technicians.
Local Codes: All wiring must comply with national and local electrical codes.
Proper Grounding: Ensure the transformer is properly grounded according to local electrical codes.
Voltage Verification: Verify input and output voltages with a multimeter before connecting any loads.
Overload Protection: Do not exceed the transformer's 40VA rating. Overloading can cause overheating and damage.

4. Installation Instructions

Follow these steps for proper installation. Always ensure power is disconnected before beginning any work.

Power Disconnection: Turn off the main power supply to the circuit where the transformer will be installed. Verify with a voltage tester that power is off.
Mounting: Mount the transformer securely in a suitable enclosure or location, ensuring adequate ventilation and protection from moisture and physical damage.
Primary Wiring: Connect the appropriate primary voltage wires (120V, 208V, or 240V AC) to the designated primary terminals on the transformer. Refer to the transformer's labeling for specific terminal identification. Ensure connections are tight and secure.
Secondary Wiring: Connect the low-voltage control circuit wires to the 24V AC secondary terminals.
Grounding: Connect the transformer's ground terminal to a proper earth ground according to local electrical codes.
Verification: Double-check all wiring connections for correctness and tightness. Ensure no bare wires are exposed.
Restore Power: Once all connections are verified and secure, restore power to the circuit.

Note: If you are unsure about any part of the installation process, consult a qualified electrician or HVAC technician.

5. Operation

The Diversitech T2404 transformer operates by converting a higher primary voltage (120V, 208V, or 240V AC) to a lower, constant 24V AC secondary voltage. Once properly installed and powered, it will continuously supply 24V AC to the connected low-voltage control circuit, provided the total load does not exceed its 40VA rating. The transformer is designed for continuous duty within its specified parameters.

6. Maintenance

The T2404 transformer is designed for reliable, long-term operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can help ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Visual Inspection: Periodically inspect the transformer for any signs of physical damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
Cleanliness: Keep the transformer free from dust, dirt, and debris, which can impede heat dissipation.
Ventilation: Ensure that the installation area maintains adequate ventilation to prevent overheating.
Connection Check: Occasionally check terminal connections to ensure they remain tight and secure.

7. Troubleshooting

If the transformer is not functioning as expected, refer to the following troubleshooting guide:

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
No 24V AC output	No primary input power Incorrect primary voltage connection Loose wiring connections Internal transformer failure	Check circuit breaker/fuse for primary power Verify primary wiring matches supply voltage Tighten all terminal connections Replace transformer if internal failure is confirmed
Low 24V AC output	Transformer overloaded Loose wiring connections Faulty connected device	Reduce load to below 40VA Tighten all terminal connections Test connected devices for faults
Transformer overheating	Transformer overloaded Insufficient ventilation Short circuit in secondary circuit	Reduce load to below 40VA Ensure proper airflow around transformer Check secondary circuit for shorts

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, contact a qualified technician.
