Quick facts
The Élios LI2C1 large 24 V interface is a wall-mounted box that lets you pair an inverter Élios outdoor unit with indoor equipment controlled by a 24 V thermostat: a coil installed on a furnace, an air handler or a unit from another brand. It is powered at 208-230 V single-phase.
Adding an Élios heat pump without changing everything indoors
When you replace a central air conditioner or add a heat pump to a home heated by a furnace, the indoor equipment does not have Élios’s original controls. The LI2C1 receives the thermostat signals, reads the room and coil temperatures, and communicates with the outdoor unit over a current loop or RS485. Élios presents it for its multi-zone outdoor units and some single-zone units.
What it handles
- 2 cooling stages and 2 heating stages.
- Dehumidification, electric auxiliary heat and emergency heat.
- Sensors supplied: T1 for the room (0.8 m, with a 5 m extension) and T2 for the coil (1.6 m).
Installation
The box measures 16.07 × 2.95 × 10.24 in. It mounts on the wall, vertically, in a dry location, at least 150 mm above the floor, with 180 mm of clearance around it. The T1 sensor cable must not exceed 7 m. Depending on the thermostat, some functions are not available; Élios recommends the MI3C1 mini interface when it is suitable.
