Introduction
The Low GWP Refrigerant Detection System ensures safe operation of the residential HVAC
systems equipped with low GWP A2L-classied refrigerant (R-454B).
The RDS Non-Communicationg Blower Control Board activates the blower in the event the
refrigerant concentration in the cabinet begins to rise. The control will activate the blower if the
concentration reach 12% of the lower ammability limit (LFL) whereas the UL standard is 20% of
the LFL. Power to ignition sources is also interrupted The refrigerant concentration in the cabinet
and interrupts power to ignition sources in the HVAC system when it detects a refrigerant leak in
the indoor coil.
After refrigerant concentrations have been reduced to safe levels, the RDS Non-Communicating
Blower Control Board allows the HVAC system to resume normal functionality. The HVAC system
“The RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control Board activates the blower in the event the
refrigerant concentration in the cabinet begins to rise. The control will activate the blower if the
concentration reach 12% of the lower ammability limit (LFL) whereas the UL standard is 20% of
the LFL. Power to ignition sources is also interrupted.”

Installation
Sensor Part Number Verification
Verify the refrigerant detection system sensor’s
part number, which is found on the sensor/
cable, prior to installation. The part number is
107648-01.
NOTE: All sensors paired to a single RDS
Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board must share the same part
number (107648-01) to ensure the
RDS Non-Communicating Blower
Control Board will function properly.
Mounting Methods
Some mounting surfaces may be di󰀩cult to
access after the RDS Non-Communicating
Blower Control Board is installed. To avoid this
or a similar situation wire the RDS Non-Com-
municating Blower Control Board unit prior to
mounting in a conned space.

included drywall hardware. For attic/crawl-
space/basement installations, use the included
and eld-provided hardware.
Mounting Location
The RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board can be mounted to the indoor unit, ple-
num, a stud, or joist in an attic, crawlspace, or
other unnished area within 48 inches of the
refrigerant sensor cable grommet on the coil
or air handler. Drywall anchors and screws
are provided for installation in nished areas,
such as closets. Mount the RDS Non-Commu-
nicating Blower Control Board in a clean, dry
environment that is away from dust, water, and
other contaminant accumulation.
NOTE: Mounting the RDS Non-
Communicating Blower Control
Board farther than 48 inches away
from the refrigerant sensor may
prevent reliable operation due to
cable strain and water seepage on
cable connections.
Do not place the RDS Non-
Communicating Blower Control Board in
secondary drain pan
Use the screws provided to mount the
RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board
Tighten the screws to a snug fit

Condensate Safety Switch (Float Switch)
In applications that require a condensate safety switch (oat switch) the oat switch must be
wired between the room thermostat and the Refrigerant Detection System. The oat switch’s
normally closed contacts may be wired to interrupt the “R” wire or the “Y” wire between
the thermostat and the RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control Board. See the RDS
Non-Communicating Blower Control Board wiring diagrams. This ensures the RDS Non-
Communicating Blower Control Board is powered continuously and operates normally. Do
not wire the condensate safety switch or any other eld installed safety switches between the
indoor unit transformer and the RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control Board. The RDS
Non-Communicating Blower Control Board must remain powered at all times.

Congurations other than the ones shown
above will cause a service fault.
Each DIP switch corresponds to a sensor
position (i.e., DIP switch 1 to sensor 1; DIP
switch 2 to sensor 2). The default factory switch
positions are set to OFF. The RDS software
reads the OFF position as an active sensor. A
sensor should be present for the corresponding
sensor connector. Setting the DIP switch to ON
disables the sensor position.
NOTE: Refer to 508467-01 (Installation
Instructions for Refrigerant Leak
Detection Sensor Kit - Indoor Coils)
to determine whether more than
one (1) Refrigerant Leak Detector
Sensor is required.
Modes of Operation
The modes of operation for the RDS Non-
Communicating Blower Control Board are
Initializing, Normal, Refrigerant Detected, and
Fault.
Initializing
The RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board is establishing connection with the
refrigerant detection sensor and is completing
an initial ve (5) minute purge sequence.
Normal
The HVAC system is functioning normally.
The RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board has not detected refrigerant.
Refrigerant Detected
When the RDS Non-Communicating Blower
Control Board detects refrigerant :
1. The RDS Non-Communicating Blower
Control Board shuts o󰀨 the (R) input
(24VAC power) to the thermostat,
which de-energizes the outdoor unit
compressor and heat sources, such as
gas and/or electric strip heat. No heating
or cooling demands will be met.
2. The RDS Non-Communicating Blower
Control Board activates the blower (high
speed). The blower purges refrigerant
from the cabinet, plenum, and ductwork.
3. After the RDS Non-Communicating
Blower Control Board determines the
refrigerant levels are below the safety
background
508636-01 Page 11 of 20
Issue 2432
threshold, the blower will continue to
function for an additional seven (7)
minutes.
4. After the blower sequence is complete, the
HVAC system resumes normal operation.
NOTE: The HVAC system may not
maintain a cooling or heating
setpoint if a significant leak exists.
Any refrigerant leaks that remain
unaddressed for an extended time
may cause the HVAC system to
shut down on a low refrigerant
pressure limit condition.
Fault
When a fault is detected within the RDS
Non-Communicating Blower Control Board,
the indoor unit blower engages and remains
engaged at a constant output until the fault is
cleared.
Diagnostic Codes
The RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board is equipped with a multicolor LED with-

Compatibility Verification
Complete the following process to determine
whether the thermostat is compatible with
the RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board.
1. Change the thermostat’s current setpoint
and operating mode.
2. Power cycle the breaker to the furnace or
air handler.
NOTE: Wait five (5) minutes before
supplying power to the furnace or air
handler breaker.
3. Note whether the thermostat maintained
its setpoints and operating mode.
a. If the thermostat maintained the
settings, the thermostat is compatible
with the RDS Non-Communicating
Blower Control Board.
b. If the thermostat did not maintain its
setpoint and/or operating mode, the
thermostat is not compatible with the
RDS Non-Communicating Blower
Control Board. Recommend replacing
with a compatible thermostat.
Additional Applications
In zoned applications, all dampers will remain
open when the RDS Non-Communicating
Blower Control Board is in Fault or Refrigerant
Detected mode. Normal heating and cooling
demands are permissible, but the blower will
remain engaged until the fault condition is
addressed.
Zone HVAC System
If the RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board is installed in a zone HVAC system,
the RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board will open all zone dampers if refrigerant
is detected.
NOTE: Proper wiring of the zone panel to the
RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board is required for all zone dampers
to open.
After the purge sequence is complete, the zone
system will resume normal operation.
External Alarm
(For applications with external alarms wired di-
rectly to the RDS Non-Communicating Blower
Control Board.)
The RDS Non-Communicating Blower Control
Board triggers the external alarm system when
it enters Refrigerant Detected mode. For alarm
notications, the RDS Non-Communicating
