Product Description
This document describes the hardware installation procedures for the ECLYPSE Connected VAV Controller. The ECLYPSE Connected VAV Controller
is designed to control any variable air volume (VAV) box. It supports BACnet/IP communication and is a listed BACnet Building Controller (B-BC). The
Connected VAV Controller comes with an embedded web server that enables web-based VAV application configuration and a visualization interface. It
also features embedded scheduling, alarming, and logging. Control logic and graphic user interface can be customized as required for the application.
The ECLYPSE Connected VAV Controller meets the requirements of VAV zone applications, including: Cooling with Reheat VAV Box & Perimeter Heat-
ing, Parallel Fan VAV Box, Series Fan VAV Box, and Room Pressurization.
This document describes the hardware installation procedures for the following controllers: ECY-VAV and ECY-VAV-PoE. The related terminal covers
are also covered.
General Installation Requirements
For proper installation and subsequent operation of each controller, pay special attention to the following recommendations:
£ Upon unpacking the product, inspect the contents of the carton for shipping damages.
Do not install damaged modules.
£ Avoid areas where corroding, deteriorating or explosive vapors, fumes or gases may be present.
£ Ensure the mounting surface can support the controller, DIN rail, and any user-supplied enclosure.
£ When installed in an enclosure, select one that provides sufficient surface area to dissipate the heat generated by the controller and by any other
devices installed in the enclosure. A metal enclosure is preferred. If necessary, provide active cooling for the enclosure.
£ The controller’s datasheet specifies the power consumption (amount of heat generated), the operating temperature range, and other environmental
conditions the controller is designed to operate under.
£ Ensure that all equipment is installed according to local, regional, and national regulations.
£ If the controller is used and/or installed in a manner not specified by Distech Controls, the functionality and the protection provided by the controller
may be impaired.
Any type of modification to any Distech Controls product will void the product’s warranty.
Take reasonable precautions to prevent electrostatic discharges to the controller when installing, servicing or
operating the controller. Discharge accumulated static electricity by touching one’s hand to a well-grounded
object before working with the controller.
