  • Page 3: About The Bac-7401 Specifications

    BAC-7401 controller. It also introduces safety information. Review this material before installing or operating the controller. The BAC-7401 is a native BACnet, fully programmable controller designed to control heat pump units. Use this versatile controller in stand-alone environments or networked to other BACnet devices. As part of a complete facilities management system, the BAC-7401 controller provides precise monitoring and control of connected points.
  • Page 4 Programs and program parameters are stored in nonvolatile memory. Auto restart on power failure Application programs KMC Controls supplies the BAC-7401 with programming sequences for heat pump units: Roof top operation based on occupancy, night ◆ setback, proportional hot and chilled water valve control.

    BAC-7401 Heat Pump Controller About the BAC-7401 Accessories Environmental limits Operating 32 to 120° F (0 to 49° C) Shipping –40 to 140° F (–40 to 60° C) Humidity 0–95% relative humidity (non-condensing) Installation Supply voltage 24 volts AC (–15%, +20%), 50-60 Hz, 25 VA, Class 2...
  • Page 6: Safety Considerations

    Safety considerations Safety considerations KMC Controls assumes the responsibility for providing you a safe product and safety guidelines during its use. Safety means protection to all individuals who install, operate, and service the equipment as well as protection of the equipment itself.
  • Page 7: Installing The Controller

    Connecting inputs The BAC-7401 controller has four universal inputs. Each input can be configured to receive either analog or digital signals. By using the optional pull-up resistors, either passive or active devices may be connected to the inputs.
  • Page 8: Connecting Outputs

    If the pulse is an active voltage (up to a maximum of +5 volts DC ), then place the input pull-up jumper in the Off position. Connecting outputs The BAC-7401 outputs are single-stage triacs designed to directly switch 24-volt ac circuits. Triac 1 and 2 output and...
  • Page 9: Connecting To A Netsensor

    NetSensor The Network RJ–12 connector provides a connection port to a NetSensor model KMD-1161 or KMD-1181. Link the controller to a NetSensor with a KMC Controls approved cable up to 75 feet long. See the installation guide supplied with the NetSensor for complete NetSensor installation instructions.
  • Page 10 Illustration 2-4 MS/TP network wiring Note The BAC-7401 EIA–485 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.
  • Page 11: Connecting Power

    The controllers require an external, 24 volt, AC power source. Use the following guidelines when choosing and wiring transformers. Use a KMC Controls Class–2 transformer of the appropriate size to supply ◆ power to the controllers. KMC Controls recommends powering only one controller from each transformer.
