Service 

Information MN225003EN CL-7 Voltage Regulator Control 

Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Instructions

 for 

information.

Read this manual first

Read and understand the contents of this manual and follow 

all locally approved procedures and safety practices before 

installing or operating this equipment. This control is used in 

conjunction with a voltage regulator. Read and understand 

the appropriate voltage regulator instruction manual before 

operating this control. 

Additional information

These instructions cannot cover all details or vari ations 

in the equipment, procedures, or process described nor 

provide directions for meeting every possible contin gency 

during installation, operation, or maintenance. For additional 

information, please contact your Eaton representative.

Acceptance and initial inspection

Each CRA is completely assembled, tested, and inspected 

at the factory. It is in good condition when accepted by the 

carrier for shipment. Upon receipt, inspect the shipping 

container for signs of damage. Unpack the control and 

inspect it thoroughly for damage incurred during shipment. 

If damage is discovered, file a claim with the carrier 

immediately. 

Handling and storage

Be careful during handling and storage of the control to 

minimize the possibility of damage. If the control is to be 

stored for any length of time prior to installation, provide a 

clean, dry storage area.

Description

Eaton's voltage regulator control replacement assembly 

(CRA) is designed to be used on single-phase regulators 

manufactured by Siemens

®

 Corporation, General Electric

®

and Howard Industries

®

, as well as Eaton's Cooper Power 

series type VR-32 voltage regulators. 
The CRA kit utilizes the control signals common to all 

voltage regulators. Designed into the CRA kits are control 

cable connections and circuitry to enable an interface 

between the CL-7 control and voltage regulators not 

manufactured by Eaton.

IMPORTANT 

CRA Applications

The CRA was designed for used on single-phase voltage 

regulators that utilize the following circuits:

 

Control voltage or load-side voltage signal

 

Motor raise and lower circuits

 

Operations counter

 

Common or ground

 

CT current signal (optional)

 

Source-side voltage signal (optional)

 

Neutral light (optional)

 

Drag hand reset (optional)

All of the signals listed are necessary for operation of the 

CRA unless otherwise noted as optional. Optional signals 

are required in order to utilize all features of the CL-7 

control.
