E-Bypass Power Features
2-Contactor: Output and Bypass
Overload protection in bypass mode
Electrically interlocked
Drive Isolation
Drive Service Switch allows the drive to be disconnected
from power during troubleshooting without disrupting bypass
operation.
Input Device
Disconnect with fuses.
(Optional) Circuit breaker.
All doors are interlocked and can be padlocked
5% Input Impedance
Internal reactors lower harmonics that the drive
produces.
BT300 E-Bypass requires no additional input reactors
E-Bypass Control Features
Auto Bypass
Relay logic allows the user to send the motor to bypass
mode based on the drive’s programmable fault list.
Customer defines the events which will transfer to
bypass.
The drive’s programmable relay can be set up for
applications that run full speed for an extended period
of time.
Damper Interlock
Generally used for safety tie-ins; the motor will not
operate the drive or bypass when open.
Enables a circuit signaling the system is ready for
bypass.
Essential Service Mode
Also used for smoke purge; the motor goes to bypass
regardless of the selected mode.
No call to stop will have an effect, including open
safety or stop commands.
Only turning the power off or opening this contact will
stop the motor.
Remote Bypass
Customer-supplied start/stop controls when running in
bypass.
Electronic Override
Full bypass control, even if the control module
(intelligence) fails. As long as power is supplied to the
bypass, you have full bypass capability.
Maintains all system safeties in bypass.
