rating. T he cables shall be connected in accordance with the guidelines of the manufacturer and the
applicable local and national agencies. A 4-core screened cable (such as RS 379-384) is to be used

using
P/N RS 367-347 or a similar component.

Input Power
The Q7 Flow input voltage should remain within 10% of the specified input voltage range. Input
voltages approaching the upper or lower limit sett ings may require that the overvoltage and

Q7 Flow Mounting and Connections
The Q7 Flowmay be set up initially by performing a few simple configuration setting s. To operate
properly, the Q7 Flow must be securely mounted and connected to a power source (3-phase AC input at
the L1/R, L2/S, and L3/T ter minals). The c ontrol terminals of the Q7 Flow may be used by connecting
the term inals of the Control Terminal Strip to the proper sensors or si gnal input sources (see the
section titled I/O and Control on pg. 15 for an expanded description of the system control options).

Q7 Flow Installation and Operation Manual29
The Normally Open (NO) and the Normally Closed (NC) contacts remain
in their normal states during normal operation. Both contacts change
states during an overload trip.
The contacts may be used with ancillary circuitry to annunciate an
overload trip or to control other system features.
There ar e three types o f Q7 Flow control panels available. The panel used will be a function of the
system feature s available for a given system. Two of the panels provide the user with control and
monitoring features and one is used as a cover for an unused panel mounting hole and has no active
features.

Stage 1 Function
Power is ap p li e d to stage one via th e Control Power Transformer (CPT). The 120 VAC signal is
applied to the Shunt Trip circuit and LED 5 (Control Power). If the LS switch is open, the Shunt Trip

Stage 2 Function
Stage two has two operating modes: Test operation and INV operation (K2 energized). If the Test
switch (SW1 ) is closed or if K2 is energized via SW2 (SW2 to INV, OL closed [open = overload], and
CIA-to-B clos ure required), the K1 relay is en ergized an d the states of the K1 contacts change. The 1M
contactor energizes which closes the 1M contacts (see Figure 3. on pg. 19; 3-phase input is applied to
the ASD).
Stage 3 Function
The closures of the OL contacts and the CIA/B contacts are requi red to provide 120 VAC to stage 3.

closure also provides power to the 2M coil allowing for the ASD output to be applied to the motor.
Switching SW2 to t
he Bypass operating mode (jumpers JPDS1 and JPDS2 are req uired) energizes K3.
The K3 contact closure (at PCB11) applies power to the damper motor. Once the damper-mo unted
DRA-to-DRB contacts are closed (fully open damper required), the 3M coil is energized providing
utilit y power to the motor.
The DRA-t

ontacts are provided via a reversible limit switch mounted on the damper. The
switch terminates power to the damper motor once the damper is full y open or fully closed (reversible
means that onl y the opposite function is available once reaching the fully open or fully closed position).
Only a fully opened damper provides the DRA-t
o-DRB conn
ection that is required for normal s ystem
operation in either mode.
