EQ3XXX CONTROLLER

INSTALLATION

The following paragraphs describe how to properly

install and configure the EQ3XXX Controller.

ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS
The Controller must be properly installed in a suitable

enclosure that is rated for the location. The enclosure

must provide space to install and wire the Controller

and must also provide for ground wire termination.

The enclosure must contain either a keyed lock or a

special tool to gain access into the enclosure. The

enclosure should be rated for the temperature range

of the location plus the temperature rise of all

equipment installed inside the enclosure. The

enclosure must be rated for electrical equipment that

is going to be installed.

NOTE

The Controller and enclosure must be
connected to earth ground.

For ordinary locations when entry is required to

operate the equipment, the cabinet should be a

dead-front construction and 16-gauge cold-rolled

steel. The door lock system shall accept different

keys for entry. An Authorized Persons key and a

Person-in-charge key will allow entry into the cabinet.

The cabinet should contain a window to view the

Controller’s text display and LED indicators.

NOTE

For any selected enclosure, the enclosure must
conform to all applicable regulations and
requirements.

NOTE

The Trouble signal must be located in an area
where it is likely to be heard.

Classified locations require the appropriate hazardous

rated enclosure. It is recommended that operators/

switches be installed in the enclosure. This avoids

the need to declassify the area in order to operate the

Controller. Regulations require that key switches be

installed for certain operations. An appropriate

window should be part of the enclosure in order to

allow an operator to view the text display and LED

indicators.

NOTE

If an enclosure does not have a keyed entry, a
special tool is required to gain entry into an
enclosure.

Det-Tronics offers several approved (FM/CSA/ATEX/

CE) hazardous area enclosures that have Eagle

Quantum Premier equipment installed in the

enclosure. Contact Det-Tronics for further information.

MOUNTING
The Controller is designed for direct panel mounting

or DIN rail (optional) mounting. See “Specifications”

section of this manual for mounting dimensions.

NOTE

Clips for DIN rail mounting are available, but
must be specified at the time of ordering.

NOTE

A minimum clearance of 4 inches between the
Controller and nearby equipment is required to
provide room for wiring and ventilation.

SERIAL INTERFACE BOARD
An optional Serial Interface Board is available for the

EQP Controller. See Figures 3-8 and 3-9 for details on

the electrical connections.
