Honeywell 013g8562 Wall Mount Operator 6 Ft Capillary

Product Description

The HONEYWELL 013g8562 is a wall-mounted sensor and operator dial designed for use with RA2000 series radiator valves in hydronic heating systems. The unit features a 6-foot capillary tube that connects the wall-mounted dial to the valve actuator, allowing the sensing element to read room temperature at the wall rather than directly at the radiator. This remote-sensing arrangement improves temperature control accuracy in spaces where the radiator is located in a poor sensing position, such as behind furniture or under a window sill. Licensed HVAC technicians and hydronic heating installers work with this component during new installations and control upgrades.

The 013g8562 is intended for residential and light commercial hydronic heating applications where RA2000 radiator thermostatic valve bodies are already installed or being installed. The wall-mount configuration is commonly selected in rooms where the radiator placement would otherwise result in inaccurate thermostat sensing. The 6-foot capillary length provides adequate reach from a standard wall-mounting location to the valve body in most room layouts.

Key Features

• Wall-mount design keeps the sensing element at room level for accurate temperature reading
• 6-foot capillary tube connects the operator dial to the RA2000 valve actuator
• Compatible with RA2000 series radiator thermostatic valve bodies
• Dial operator allows manual setpoint adjustment at the wall
• Remote sensing reduces influence of radiant heat from the radiator on the control setpoint

Compatibility

Designed for use with RA2000 series radiator valves as stated by the manufacturer. Verify valve body model and capillary connection fitting before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or hydronic heating professional familiar with thermostatic radiator valve systems. Shut down the heating system and relieve system pressure before working on valve components. Mount the operator dial on an interior wall at standard thermostat height, away from drafts, direct sunlight, and other heat sources that could affect sensing accuracy. Route the capillary tube carefully to avoid kinking, as damage to the capillary will affect sensor function and may require full unit replacement.
