Introduction
This Section describes the applicability of the Manual
Product Description
The E7L Bypass unit provides a means of bypassing the Drive while allowing the motor to operate at full speed, directly from
the AC line. It incorporates an AC Drive and two contactor Bypass arrangement in a single UL listed enclosure. The two
electrically interlocked IEC rated contactors isolate the Drive from the load when operating in B y p as s m o de .
Control logic provides industry standard Hand/Off/Auto functions and safety circuit interlocks in both drive and Bypass
op eratin g modes.
E7L Bypass components include: a fused 120 VAC control circuit transformer, an input disconnect, motor overload relay,
control keypad and indicating lights.
The E7 Drive, a component of the E7L Bypass package, is a Pulse Width Modulated Drive for 3-Phase AC induction motors.
This type of Drive is also known as an Adjustable Frequency Drive, Variable Frequency Drive, AC Drive, AFD, ASD, VFD,
and Inverter. In this manual, the E7 Drive will be referred to as the “Drive”.
The Drive is a variable torque AC drive, designed specifically for HVAC applications in building automation, including fans,
blowers and pumps. A new benchmark for size, cost, performance, benefits, and quality, the Drive includes numerous
built-in features such as network communications, H/O/A, PI, parameter storage and copy functions.
The Drive has embedded communications for the popular building automation protocols, Johnson Controls Metasys® N2 and
Siemens APOGEE™ FLN, as well as Modbus®. An optional LONWORKS® interface card is also available.
The LED keypad/operator is equipped with Hand/Off/Auto functions and copy feature. User parameter settings can be recovered at any time via “User Initialization”. Optional DriveWizard software allows upload/download, as well as graphing and
monitoring of drive parameters from a PC for ease of drive management.
Built-in PI control eliminates the need for closed loop output signals from a building automation system. It includes feedback
display, inverse, square root and differential control functions, and maintains setpoint for closed loop control of fans and
pumps for pressure, flow, or temperature regulation.

Bypass Unit Enclosures
All Bypass units are intended for non-hazardous locations. Various enclosure types are provided to protect against the application environmental conditions:
Nema Type 1 Enclosures
These are constructed for indoor use to provide a degree of protection against incidental contact with enclosed electrical equipment and falling dust or dirt.
NEMA Type 12 FVFF Enclosures
NEMA provides for both non-ventilated and ventilated NEMA 12 enclosures. When ventilated, a suffix to the type number
defines the ventilation method. A NEMA 12 FVFF enclosure has Forced Ventilation with inlet air Filter and outlet air Filter.
The internal pressure is positive with respect to the ambient pressure. UL does not recognize NEMA 12 ventilated enclosures,
therefore, these enclosures are designated NEMA 1 for UL purposes.

Bypass Product Options
Option C
Motor Circuit Protector (MCP)/Disconnect: Replaces the standard input disconnect switch and provides short circuit protection
integral with the Drive and Bypass package. The MCP includes a through the door, padlockable operator mechanism. Without
this option, short circuit protection must be provided by others on the input side of the Drive and Bypass unit.
Option F
Drive Input Fuses: Fuses capable of protecting semiconductor devices, rated at 200 kAIC are connected to the line side of the
Drive, between the input disconnect and the Drive, to protect the Drive semiconductors when motor or output conductor short
circuit faults occur.
Option G
Drive Input Disconnect Switch: Provides a disconnect means for the input side of the Drive, for Drive isolation capability
during Bypass operation. This disconnect is located inside the enclosure with no external handle.
Option H
Drive Input Fused Disconnect Switch: Provides both a disconnect means and short circuit protection for the input side of the
Drive. A combination of options F and G.
Option J
Enable Embedded Serial Communications: A no cost option. The Drive in a Bypass unit is capable of network communication
via one of 3 embedded protocols. Specifying option J will enable the Metasys N2 protocol and will provide the necessary
parameter settings and wiring (jumpers) to be network ready when delivered (Project specific H5-0X parameters are setup by
the user).
Option L
Serial Communication, Echelon LonWorks: An isolated RS-422/485 circuit board provides LonTalk protocol for network
communication to a BAS. This option plugs into the CN2 connection on the Drive control circuit board.
Option N
Input Capacitive Network Radio Frequency Interference Filter: Electronic equipment can be sensitive to low levels of voltage
distortion and electrical noise. This passive wye-delta capacitve filter is intended for installation on the VFD input in order to
protect other sensitive electronic loads, it provides attenuation of conducted RFI and EMI.
Option P
Pressure to Electrical Transducer: This transducer is employed when converting a pneumatic signal to an electrical signal for
use as the Drive speed command input. The need for this option comes up on retrofit applications when the pneumatic signal
that formerly controlled the pneumatic actuator on Inlet Guide Vanes (IGV), for example, is now to be used to control the fan
speed via the Drive. This option is wired to terminals TB5-7, TB5-8 and TB5-9, parameters H3-10 and H3-11 are used for
final field calibration of this input if there is jobsite variation from the typical 3 to 15 PSIG pneumatic signal input range.
Option R
3% Input Line Reactor: Employed on the input side of the Drive for Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) suppression. A line
reactor also minimizes the potential for Drive input diode damage from line transients and reduces voltage peaks on the DC
bus capacitors. This option is installed on the input power side of the Drive, between the input contactor and the Drive.

Keypad Control Panel Operator
In a Bypass unit the Drive keypad control panel operator is mounted flush with the hinged door of the enclosure. The Keypad
Control/Operator is equipped with 6 LED illuminated selector keys: Hand, Off, Auto, Drive Select, Bypass Select and Drive
Test. The E7L also features 11 other status LED indicators: Control Power, Drive Ready, Drive Run, Drive Fault, Bypass Run,
Motor O/L, Safety Open, Damper/BAS Interlock, Smoke Purge, Auto Transfer and Auto Run. The membrane over the Drive
keypad is

The Keypad Control/Operator has a digital alpha/numeric display and keypad, in the upper portion, for Drive operation and
programming. The row of LEDs above the alpha/numeric display indicate Drive operational status. The row of LEDs below
the alpha/numeric display indicate the Drive menu that is presently active.
The lower portion of the Keypad Control/Operator displays the operating mode status via LEDs and controls the HAND/OFF/
AUTO functions for both the Drive and Bypass via a touchpad. The general rule for LED colors, in the lower portion of the
control panel, is:

Input Disconnect Switch
Electrically located on the input power side of the Bypass unit, the disconnect provides a through the door padlockable operator
mechanism. The Bypass three phase input power connection is made to the input terminals of the disconnect. The door mounted
rotary operating mechanism is a convenient means of disconnecting the Bypass unit from line power for equipment maintenance.
The disconnect must be in the OFF position in order to open the enclosure door. The rotary handle can be padlocked in the OFF
position.
This disconnect switch DOES NOT provide branch short circuit protection. A device to provide branch short circuit protection
MUST be provided by others upstream of the E7L Bypass unit.

Contactors
The Bypass is a “2 contactor Bypass” circuit employing IEC rated contactors in an electrically interlocked arrangement to
allow mutually exclusive operation in Drive or Bypass modes. To minimize enclosure space requirements, they are mounted in
a 2 contactor assembly.
The control logic and “soft start” characteristic of the Drive limit the Drive input and output contactors to motor FLA current or
less. For this reason, the Drive output contactor has a lower current rating than the Bypass contactor. The Bypass contactor is
exposed to motor inrush current (LRA) when starting the motor across-the-line and therefore requires a higher current rating.
OverLoad Relay
The OverLoad Relay (OLR) is mounted to the contactor assembly or back panel (depending on rating), just above the Bypass
contactor (see Figure 1.7). Electrically on the output power side of the Bypass unit, the adjustable thermal OLR provides
overload protection for the motor in both the Drive and Bypass operating modes. The Bypass three phase output power
connection to the motor is made to the output terminals of the overload relay. The OLR is set up in the factory to be a manual
reset device, requiring operator attention if an overload trip-out is experienced.
Control Power Transformer
A Control Power Transformer (CPT) is provided to power the Bypass 120 VAC control circuit. The VA capacity is determined
by the control circuit and optional functions specified for the unit. The CPT primary is fused in both legs, the secondary is
fused when required by NEC (transformer VA and wire size dependent). One side of the transformer secondary is grounded to
the Bypass enclosure.
Electronic Bypass Control Logic
Operating elements such as indicating LEDs and selector buttons, as well as the control logic, have been incorporated into a
PCB assembly to eliminate the potential for loose wires after shipment and to control factory costs.
The operating elements are located on PCB A3, mounted to the inside of the enclosure door and ribbon cable connected to the
control logic PCB A2.
The control logic PCB A2 is mounted to the left hand side of the enclosure and contains the control circuit field wiring terminal strips (TB1 through TB5).
Drive/Bypass logic interlocks explained
The Bypass 120 VAC logic circuit is interconnected with the Drive multi-function digital input terminals and multifunction digital output terminals to allow a single customer interface to control both Drive and Bypass circuits. These Drive
terminals are therefore not available for other field use. All field control connections are landed at terminal strips TB1 through
TB5 on control logic PCB A2.
PCB Jumpers explained
J1 is a field configuration jumper to allow the user to select the internal 120 VAC power supply, a customer supplied 120 VAC
power supply or a customer supplied 24 VDC power supply for the digital inputs.
J2 and J3 are field configuration jumpers to allow the user to select the signal level (0 to 10 VDC or 4 to 20 mA) for the two
analog output signals.
