Installing the controllers

This section provides important instructions and guidelines for installing the BAC-8005 and BAC-8205 controllers. Carefully review this information before installing the controllers.
Installing a VAV controller includes the following topics that are covered in this section.

  • Setting the rotation limits
  • Mounting
  • Connecting inputs
  • Connecting outputs
  • Connecting to an MS/TP network
  • Connecting an airflow sensor
  • Connecting power

In addition to the topics, see the section Application drawings.

Setting the rotation limits

Before mounting the controller, set the rotation limits with the supplied stop screw. Installing the stop screw limits the shaft rotation to either 45 or 60 degrees.
Caution
Before setting the rotation limits on the controller, refer to the damper position specifications in the VAV control box to which the controller will be attached. Setting rotation limits that do not match the VAV damper may result in improper operation or equipment damage.Titus BAC-8005 Alpha VAV
Controller 02 To set the rotational limits:

  1. Turn the controller over so you have access to the back.
  2. Manually rotate the actuator fully clockwise as viewed from the back.
  3. Remove the stop screw from its storage location and clean any debris from the threads.
  4. Insert the screw into the correct stop position hole.
  5. Tighten the screw only until the head touches the plastic in the bottom of the recess.
Mounting

Mount the controller inside of a metal enclosure. To maintain RF emissions specifications, use either shielded connecting cables or enclose all cables in conduit.
Mount the controller directly over the damper shaft. A minimum shaft length of 2.0 inch (51 mm) is required.
Note
The controller is designed to directly mount to 3/8 to 5/8 inch (9.5 to 16mm) round or 3/8 to 7/16 (9.5 to 11mm) square damper shafts.
Mount the controller close enough to the pitot tubes to keep the tubing length to a minimum. In typical installations the controller’s inputs and sensors are within 24 inches of each other.
Mount the controller as follows: Titus BAC-8005 Alpha VAV Controller
03

  1. Loosen the nuts on the U-bolt until the shaft can fit through the collar.
  2. Place the controller on the damper shaft in the approximate final position. Position the controller loosely against the mounting surface so that the mounting bushing can float freely in the mounting tab.
  3. Center the mounting bushing in the slot of the mounting tab and secure it using a #8 self-tapping screw.
  4. Manually position the damper in the full open position.
  5. Adjust the drive hub as follows:
    • If the damper rotates counter clockwise to close, depress the gear disengagement button and rotate the drive hub to the full clockwise position then release the button.
    • If the damper rotates clockwise to close, depress the gear disengagement button and rotate the drive hub to the full counter clockwise position then release the button.
  6. Lock the hub to the shaft by evenly tightening the V-bolt nuts to 30 to 35 in-lbs.

Connecting to an MS/TP network
The BAC-8000 series controllers are BACnet MS/TP compliant controllers. Connect them only to a BACnet MS/TP network.
See Application Note AN0404A, Planning BACnet Networks for additional information about installing controllers.

MS/TP network connection
Titus BAC-8005 Alpha VAV Controller 10 Connections and wiring
Use the following principles when connecting a controller to an MS/TP network:

  • Connect no more than 128 addressable BACnet devices to one MS/TP network. The devices can be any mix of controllers or routers.
  • To prevent network traffic bottlenecks, limit the MS/TP network size to 60 controllers.
  • Use 18 gauge, twisted pair, shielded cable with capacitance of no more than 51 picofarads per foot for all network wiring. Belden cable model #82760 meets the cable requirements.
  • Connect the -A terminal in parallel with all other – terminals.
  • Connect the +B terminal in parallel with all other + terminals.
  • Connect the shields of the cable together at each controller. For KMC BACnet controllers use the S terminal.
  • Connect the shield to an earth ground at one end only.
  • Use a KMD–5575 repeater between every 32 MS/TP devices or if the cable length will exceed 4000 feet (1220 meters). Use no more than four repeaters per MS/TP network.
  • Place a KMD–5567 surge suppressor in the cable where it exits a building.

MS/TP network wiring
Titus BAC-8005 Alpha VAV Controller 11 Note
The MS/TP terminals are labeled -A, +B and S. The S terminal is provided as a connecting point for the shield. The terminal is not connected to the ground of the controller. When connecting to controllers from other manufacturers, verify the shield connection is not connected to ground.

End of line termination switches
The controllers on the physical ends of the EIA-485 wiring segment must have end-of-line termination installed for proper network operation. Set the end- of-line termination to On using the EOL switches.
