Echoflex Installation Guide
Emergency Bypass Load Controller
The remote device that triggers the Emergency circuit ON must provide a
normally closed, maintained dry contact closure for fire alarms. When the
remote device is activated, the contact closure opens and the contacts
force the EREB-AP into the emergency ON state.
Note:
When using 1 mm
2
(18 AWG) wire, the remote triggering
device, test switch, or emergency system must be installed within
305 m (1,000 ft) of the EREB.
1. Cut the blue wire loop in the middle of the wire lead. Doing this
provides two leads, which are the connection points for both the
contact input and contact output to a remote triggering device.
2. Connect the two leads to the normally closed single pole contacts on
the remote device or test switch.
3. Go to
Remote Activation Test on page 9
to confirm the connection.
Model EREB-AD
The EREB-AD is designed to attach to lighting control panels or electrical
enclosures that are fitted with a DIN rail.
Six screw terminals on the bottom of the device are used to connect
normal sense and emergency power wires. Four screw terminals on the
top of the device are used for the following connections:
•
The two terminals on the left have a factory-installed wire loop
(jumper). It provides a connection to a remote triggering device
(normally closed, dry contact closure, such as a fire alarm). When the
normally closed contact is triggered, the contact input opens,
activating the emergency lighting.
•
The two terminals on the right provide termination of 0–10 V, LED
driver loads, or fluorescent lighting control.
1. Snap the device onto an installed DIN rail in the upright position at
least 5 cm (2 in) away from any heat-generating devices. Tension clips
on the device provide an audible click when the device is installed
properly.
2. Terminate the EREB-AD to the emergency lighting for the area
controlled as shown in the
Wiring Diagram on the next page
a. Connect
Emergency Power In
and
Emergency Power Out
wires to
the screw terminals on the device in series with the emergency
lighting.
b. Connect the
Neutral
for the emergency circuit to the
Emergency
Neutral
screw terminal.
3. Connect the EREB-AD to the normal lighting and control device for
the area controlled.
