Mounting Options
MOUNT
unit in any of the following configurations:
Do not recess. If you need a recessed unit, you need to order our QT series.
VOLTAGE DROP
•
To minimize voltage drop the proper gauge wire must be pulled between
the Q-Tran power supply and the load.
•
Q-Tran offers a free voltage drop calculator on our website
(www.q-tran.com) or you can download our free voltage drop app for
iPhone, iPad or android devices (click link on our site).
•
Below is a quick reference chart of minimum acceptable wire gauges.
(Q-Tran urges each installer to view our full calculator.)
BEFORE INSTALLING DOOR
Please make sure the output voltage at the lamps is between 11.4–12 volts
for a 12V system or 22.8–24 volts for a 24V system. Check this voltage with
a true RMS volt meter & take voltage reading at the lamps.
CONNECT SECONDARY
(For detailed look at secondary, see Diagram B)
Connect low voltage fixtures in one of the following methods:
CONNECT PRIMARY
(For detailed look of primary, see Diagram A)
NOTE:
Voltages are fixed and can only be changed at the
factory. Voltages come in 120V, 230V or 277V.
