B. Three Contactor Manual Bypass shall be provided when indicated by the schedule.

installation as a single UL listed device. Bypass shall include the following:

1. Drive output, and bypass contactors to isolate the VFD from the motor, when the motor is running in the bypass mode. These contactors shall be electrically and software interlocked to ensure safe operation.

2. 120 VAC control transformer, with fused primary.

3. Electronic motor overload relay, to display motor amps and protect the motor while operating in the bypass mode.

4. Disconnect switch, with a pad-lockable through-the-door handle mechanism.

5. Control and safety circuit terminal strip.

6. Current transformers on the output of the Drive/Bypass package for displaying motor current in both modes of operation as well as verification that the motor is running.

7. Provide BACnet , Modbus/Memobus, Siemens Apogee, Johnson Controls

Metasys communication protocols as standard communication protocols as standard, with the ability to configure controller parameters view controller monitors, control I/O, clear faults and view controller status in both drive and bypass modes.

8. Door mounted control panel with; Drive/Bypass selector keys, Hand/Off/Auto selector keys, Normal/Test selector keys.

9. Door mounted control keypad with LCD display for “Control Power”, “Drive

Ready”, “Drive Run”, “Drive Selected”, “Drive Fault”, “Drivel Test”, “Bypass

Selected”, “Bypass Run”, “Motor OL”, ”Safety Open” “BAS Interlock”, “Auto

Run”, Auto Transfer”, “Emergency Override”, “Hand Mode”, “Off Mode”, and

“Auto Mode”.

10. Drive/Bypass selector keys, to allow switching between the Drive and Bypass mode.

11. Hand/Off/Auto selector keys shall provide the following operation and be programmed to operate in any of these modes upon power-up:

12. Normal/Test selector keys, to allow VFD trouble shooting while operating in bypass mode. This option is only available with the 3 contactor style bypass.

13. Hand Position - The drive is given a start command, operation is via the local speed input (digital operator/keypad). If in bypass mode, the motor is running.

14. Off Position - The start command is removed, all speed inputs are ignored, power is still applied to the drive. If in bypass mode, the motor is stopped.

15. Auto Position - The drive is enabled to receive a start command and speed input from a building automation system. If in bypass mode, the motor start/stop is controlled by the building automation system

16. Eight Programmable digital inputs (24Vdc, 8mA) shall be provided for Auto

Transfer to bypass, Safety Interlock, BAS Interlock, and numerous other bypass specific functions.

17. Four Programmable form C relays (24Vdc/120 VAC, 2 Amp) for: “Motor

Run”, “Damper Actuator”, “Auto Transfer”, “Drive Run”, “Hand Mode”, “Auto

Mode”, “System Fault”, “Bypass Run” or ”Serial Com Run”.

18. Damper control circuit with end of travel feedback capability. This circuit shall also include two adjustable wait time functions. One is a run delay time where the drive will operate at a preset speed before the damper opens to pressurize the system. The other time function is an interlock wait time, so if the damper has not fully opened within the specified time, a fault will be declared.

19. Line voltage sensors to monitor for brownout, blackout and single phase conditions. Fault levels for each condition must be adjustable to ensure the proper settings pursuant to each application.

20. Selectable energy savings and harmonic reduction mode. Drive automatically

Specifications Page 15 Variable Frequency Drives

C. Redundant Drive Package shall be provided when indicated by the schedule. Two

VFD drives (Drive A, Drive B) shall be supplied in a NEMA 1 rated, fully pre-wired and ready for installation as a single UL listed device. Redundant drive package shall include the following as standard:

1. Lockable main input disconnect switch.

2. Semiconductor fuses for each VFD.

3. Output contactor for each VFD

4. 115V control transformer and transfer logic.

5. Damper control circuit with end of travel feedback with two adjustable wait time functions.

6. “Fault Transfer” selector switch

7. “Drive A -Auto - Drive B” selector switch.

8. “Hand-Off-Auto” selector switch.

9. “External Fault” pilot light.

10. “Drive A Fault” pilot light.

11. “Drive B Fault” pilot light.

12. “Drive A Run” pilot light.

13. “Drive B Run” pilot light.

14. Single power input/output wiring points

15. Single control wiring points

16. Two door mounted drive control keypads.

D. Main input circuit breaker with a pad-lockable through-the-door handle mechanism, able to achieve a SCCR panel rating of 100kAIC.

E. Enclosure:

1 NEMA / UL TYPE 12 Enclosure

2 NEMA / UL TYPE 3R enclosures for outdoor installations.

F. Engraved cabinet nameplates shall be provided.
