PREMIER
ZONE CONTROL PANEL
The Robertshaw SlimZone
®
Premier zone panel is
ideal for light commercial applications. It’s a constant
volume zone system that controls 3 to 19 zones
from a single heating and cooling unit. Dedicated
thermostats in combination with motorized dampers
serve each zone. The control module monitors the
zone thermostats and energizes the HVAC system
to the requested mode of operation. The SlimZone
®
Premier automatically controls equipment staging,
and all setup and monitoring is achieved by a
4-button keypad with a 4-line by 20-character
LCD display.
The basic system consists of the SlimZone
®
Premier
control module which controls up to 3 zones.
Additional SlimZone
®
expansion modules add 2 zones
per module and up to 8 expansion modules can be
connected to the system for a total of 19 zones.
The SlimZone
®
Premier requires a DSL-520P
communicating zone thermostat for each zone. The
zone panel is wired to HVAC equipment. A dedicated
24 VAC, 75 VA transformer is needed to power the
zone panel. Separate transformers are required for
the zone dampers. The SlimZone
®
Premier provides
power to the DSL-520P communicating zone
thermostat and any expander modules.

The Robertshaw DSL-520P zone thermostat is the exclusive
thermostat used with the SlimZone
®
Premier zone control system.
These thermostats exchange data with the control panel to
optimize the zoned environment. It’s the most advanced solid
state, microprocessor temperature control device on the market
today. The DSL-520P uses an adaptive control routine based on
fuzzy logic to determine an area’s heating and cooling needs. The
routine calculates the load by evaluating recent room conditions
from the sensor within the thermostat or connected remote
sensor. It has a symbol to confirm the communication link and
temporary timed override when in an unoccupied schedule. The
thermostat comes with setpoint adjustment, zone address
confirmation buttons, dry contact relay, optional remote sensor
terminals, and perimeter heat LED indication.
