Q-PAC has introduced two new control panel options, known as Fan-Only and Fused Disconnect, to expand its range of HVAC fan system solutions.
These newly launched options complement the existing Basic and Premium Control Panels, offering engineers, contractors, and facility teams more versatility and streamlined integration for various HVAC fan project requirements.
Design and Controls
Designed to enhance flexibility and compatibility, the Fan-Only option allows easy integration of the Q-PAC Multimotor Plenum Fan (MPF) with current or third-party building management systems (BMS). This makes it particularly suitable for retrofits, upgrades, or budget-sensitive projects requiring a tailored control strategy.
By utilizing the Q-PAC Fan Controller's single point of power and control, the setup process is simplified, enabling quick and efficient installation as the BMS's power and controls are consolidated to a single connection on the Fan Controller.
Features and Functions
Q-PAC prioritizes seamless installation, dependable performance, and strategic energy management The Fused Disconnect option offers vital local power isolation and fused protection for enhanced safety. It accommodates the integration of custom or advanced control devices when required.
Featuring Schneider’s VisiPacT fused safety switch, it functions as a dependable lockout line-of-sight disconnect, allowing power to be safely isolated during regular operations and emergency situations.
This configuration is rigorously tested to exceed NEMA standards by threefold, offering a robust protection framework and flexible integration for challenging commercial and industrial environments.
Additional Features
The company's Premium and Basic Fan Control Panels continue to be reliable solutions known for their safety, durability, and simplicity. These panels come factory assembled, wired, and tested, featuring options like a Hand-Off-Auto switch, built-in safety circuits, and fan status indicators to facilitate easy operation and maintenance.
The Premium Control Panel is UL 508A-rated and integrates a touchscreen HMI, BACnet MSTP/IP connectivity, safety interlocks, fireman override, and real-time monitoring suitable for complex applications and complete building automation. The Basic Control Panel offers essential controls and protection, making it ideal for standard installations and smaller air handlers.
