Lux TX500E

Replacing 12 yo Lux thermostat due to a lightning strike ! 5/2 is practical - weekday and weekend - absolutely overrideable when needed. I leave the cover open when I override or hold so I remember to reset back to program. This product has worked perfectly for 12 years. Looking forward to 12 (or more). PexSupply shocked me. PexSupply has the best price - exp important since I needed 9. I ordered these at 10 one day and received them before 3pm the next day (I used 2-3 day shipping!) Just in time for the electrician (although I could have installed them).

Lux Thermostat

It was similar to my previous thermostat. I took notes before removal of the old one which made it easier when installing the new one.

It's OK

I got this as a replacement for TX500E that croaked right before the holidays. Good value and fine thermostat...until it isn't. I find I get about 5 years from one of these on average before the temp sensor goes crazy and the unit has to be replaced. Chose to get another mostly because it was the holidays and just popping a new one in 5 seconds was more attractive than taking 30 minutes to put a new base on the wall and xfer the wires. Service from SupplyHouse was great, with next day delivery even thoguh I ordered late afternoon.

So far so good!

This product seems to be working fine but you do need a flashlight if you don't have ample lighting to see the numbers on the screen.

Q: I just installed a Pellet Stove and it came with a LUXPRO PSM30SA. I would like to replace it with a Programmable Thermostat. Will the Lux TX500e do the trick without having to rewire?

Asked by Gretchen 14 years ago

They're both low-voltage thermostats, so we see no reason why you couldn't use this thermostat (although you may want to check with the pellet stove manufacturer to be sure).

- Another PexSupply Customer

I believe it will do the trick because the Lux TX500e has many configurations. All you need is choose the one that best matches with your system wire configuration. I like the Lux TX500e very much because it allows me to change the temperature four times per day and seven days per week. It also has combination to lock out the keypad so nobody can change temperature without knowing the combination. I removed the name and model on my to protect the combination. I hope this information will help you!

Q: My thermostat indicated OL next to temperature set. What's the OL means? Why did the temperature changes have no effect or not working?

Asked by James 15 years ago

Add your answer

* Required Field
Verified Author and ReplyVerified Reply- PexSupply Staff

According to the manufacturer, "OL" means Out of Limits. The sensor is reading outside the thermostat's display limit of 32°F to 95°F. When the temperature returns to within these limits, the temperature display will reappear. If the actual room temperature is not outside these limits, there may be a malfunction. Press RESET using a small Philips screw driver, then reconfigure and reprogram.

We suggest looking at the following manual: http://s3.pexsupply.com/manuals/1273849501144/30418_PROD_FILE.pdf Also, ensure that the heat emitter in the room is big enough to bring the room to 72 degrees.

It sounds like you should check the program set in the thermostat. You may need to change the program that is saved.
