Product catalog summary
E7 Drive Design Benefits
The E7 drive is a compact and cost-effective variable torque AC drive designed for the Building Automation System (BAS) market. It is optimized for HVAC applications such as VAV air handlers, exhaust fans, and pumps, offering features like quiet motor operation, integral setpoint control, and improved power quality.
Quiet Motor Operation
IGBT technology in the E7 drive reduces motor noise through variable switching frequency and low harmonic content.
Integral Setpoint Control
The drive's internal PI controller eliminates the need for BAS closed-loop output signals and includes a Sleep function for energy efficiency.
Improved Power Quality
Advanced microprocessor logic ensures low EMI/RFI emissions, meeting power quality standards and often negating the need for additional protection devices.
Easy Setup
Built-in program storage and copying features facilitate easy parameter transfer across multiple drives.
HVAC-Specific Features
Includes H-O-A functionality, embedded network communications, PI control, sleep function, and motor auto-tuning.
Communications and Keypad
Supports protocols like Johnson Controls Metasys N2 and Siemens APOGEE FLN, with an optional LonWorks interface. The keypad has a large LCD display with multilingual support.
E7/Bypass Package
Allows motors to operate from the drive or directly across the AC line, providing redundancy. Includes safety interlocks and does not require additional branch circuit protection.
Switch Selectable Features
Includes Smoke Purge, Auto Transfer to Bypass, and Remote Transfer to Bypass.
Bypass Operator Control
Offers HAND, OFF, AUTO, BYPASS, DRIVE, NORMAL, and TEST modes for flexible operation.
Additional Packages
Custom drive packages available for various HVAC needs, including "And" Bypass, "Or" Bypass, and Soft-Start Bypass packages.
Enclosures
Available in NEMA Type 1, Type 12, and Type 3R for different environmental conditions.
Performance Features
Includes VT ratings, overload capacity, starting torque, DC injection braking, and energy-saving controls.
Protective Features
Features current limited stall prevention, heat sink over-temperature protection, and short circuit protection.
Design Features
Incorporates a 32-bit microprocessor, flash upgradeable firmware, and various control and monitoring capabilities.
Service Conditions
Suitable for ambient temperatures from -10°C to 40°C, with humidity up to 95% RH, and altitudes up to 3300 ft.
Bypass Features
Standard package supports up to 250 HP with input, output, and bypass contactors, and includes a circuit breaker disconnect.

E7/Bypass Building Automation Ready Package The E7 Bypass packages are designed for optimum performance when used with today’s Building Automation Systems (BAS). The E7 drive with bypass allows motors to be operated from either the drive or directly across the AC line. Bypass capability is selected for any critical application that must have redundant motor control to insure continued operation. The bypass function transfers motor operation from the drive to the AC line via drive isolation contactors and a bypass contactor. Our Safety Interlock enables building safety devices (i.e. Freeze-stat,...
