LUTRON QSNE-4A5-230-D Pro LED+ Phase-Adaptive Power Module

PRO LED+ Phase Adaptive Power Module

The Energi Savr Node (ESN) family is a group of modular products for the control of lighting loads and motor loads.

This document describes the following product: QSNE-4A5-230-D: 4-Zone ESN for phase control dimming of lighting loads

Features

PRO LED+ Phase Adaptive Power Modules can be used in a QS Standalone system with an iOS Energi Savr Application, a Quantum system, or an Athena system.
Includes QS link for seamless integration of lights and controls.
An auto-detect mode is available to detect and configure forward-phase or reverse-phase (leading-edge or trailing-edge) dimming for incandescent / halogen, electronic / magnetic lowvoltage, and neon / cold cathode light sources.
A locked forward-phase or reverse-phase (leadingedge or trailing-edge) mode is available.
Controls dimmable LED loads. Refer to www.lutron.com/ledtool for compatibility with dimmable LED light sources.
RTISS technology compensates for incoming mains voltage variations such as changes in Root Mean Square (RMS) voltage, frequency shifts (up to ± 2% change in frequency /second), harmonics and line noise.
RTISS-TE technology allows for true instantaneous voltage compensation for incoming mains voltage variations. Only operates in reverse-phase (trailingedge) when “voltage-comp.” is enabled in the design software.
RTISS-ICM technology is able to withstand highinrush LEDs, bulb blowouts, and direct shorts.
Provides air gap off (when all zones are off).
Integral protection for common temporary over-current and over-voltage conditions.
LEDs on the module provide diagnostic information. · Buttons on the module provide override control.
Emergency contact closure input (CCI). · Power failure memory automatically returns the outputs to the levels they were set to prior to a power outage.

Output Zone Ratings

Each zone has no minimum load requirement.
When programmed to “auto detect” mode, the module starts in reverse-phase (trailing-edge) and if an incompatible load is detected, it will convert to forward-phase (leading-edge).
Internal relay provides an air gap off when all zones are off.
One load type per zone.
Output must not be used to control general purpose receptacles.
Output must be directly connected to the load.
Output breakers or switches must not be used.
Run a separate neutral for each load circuit.
A common neutral connection is not recommended.
Module may be powered by Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) or Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overload (RCBO) protected circuit, if required. Load circuit wiring (from breaker to module to load) must be run in its own non-metallic conduit, or nuisance tripping may occur. Maximum wire length between the module and the load must be less than 30.5 m (100 ft).
For applications requiring 010 V- control, use a QSNE-4T10-D. · For applications requiring higher wattage ratings, use a power booster (PHPM-PA-277/DV).
For dimmable loads only. For applications requiring switching control, use the QSNE-4S10-D.
Each zone is rated for the following wattage and load types (module 10 A maximum) A, B: Load Type| Zone 1 Rating| Zone 2, 3 and 4 Rating (per zone)
---|---|---
LED B | 1.7 A (400 W)| 1.0 A (250 W)
Incandescent/Halogen, ELV | 1 200 W| 800 W
Neon/Cold Cathode, MLV D| 800 VA (525 WC)| 500 VA (375 WC)

A Additional load type options are available in the programming software suite, some may require an interface. Contact Lutron for details.
B Ratings listed refer to the LED driver input current/wattage. Refer to Lutron.com/ledtool for compatibility testing results. Using LED fixtures that are not tested can result in the fixtures not turning-on or poor dimming quality. LED dimming performance can vary from fixture to fixture and cannot be guaranteed.
C Actual lamp wattage.
D Only use iron core transformers intended for use with an electronic switch or dimmer per Clause 8.3 of IEC / EN 60669-2-1.

Out of Box Functionality

This section describes the default functionality when the module is first installed.

Emergency Contact Closure Input (CCI)

When the CCI is open, the module will enter emergency mode, which will turn on all loads to their emergency level and disable control of local zones and QS devices.
When the CCI is closed or jumpered, zones will return to the settings or levels they were at prior to entering emergency mode.
Note: Module will process any sensor events received while in emergency mode after it exits emergency mode.

Normal Mode Operation

By default each zone is set to an Auto Detect load type with ON and OFF control only. Each zone will turn load ON or OFF until it is configured via module programming.
Zone and raise/lower buttons on the module can be used to:
– Turn loads ON and OFF.
– Dim loads up and down after manually setting a load type.

Mechanical Dimensions

Overview of Wiring Terminals

Verify Wiring

Apply power directly to loads to first identify any load or wiring faults prior to connecting loads to module.

Mains Voltage Wiring

Wiring from Distribution to Phase-Adaptive Power Module

Run line / hot, neutral, and earth ( ) wires from a 220-240 V~50/60 Hz feed to the power module.
Run a separate neutral for each load circuit for best performance.

Mains Wiring and IECR PELV Separation

Follow appropriate local and national codes to ensure proper separation.

Wiring: Emergency Contact Closure Input

IECR PELV/NEC Class 2 Emergency Contact Closure Input

Emergency Contact Closure Input (CCI) wiring is IECR PELV/NEC Class 2. Follow all applicable national and local codes for proper circuit separation and protection.
The CCI is a local control only and cannot control other modules over the QS link. A maximum of 32 modules may be connected in parallel to a CCO device if the event is intended to affect multiple devices.
When in emergency mode, all zone outputs will be at their programmed emergency light level (configurable for each zone, default is 100%). All sensors and controls are locked out.
Contact closure input is normally closed (NC). The module is shipped with a jumper pre-installed.
Note: The module will default to emergency mode if the CCI is left open. If no Emergency Contact Closure Input is required, leave the wire jumper in the CCI terminals.

Wiring: QS Link

QS Link IECR PELV/NEC Class 2 Wiring

Follow all applicable national and local codes for proper circuit separation and protection.
Link communicates using IECR PELV/NEC Class 2 wiring.
Wiring may be daisy chained or T-tapped.
Do NOT connect terminal 2.
