VC350A EZ Voltage Converter
Features & Options
- EZ Mount Enclosure
- Compact & Cost-Effective 350 mA Unit
- Self-resetting Thermal Fuse
- Operation & Fault LED Indicators
- Fixed or Adjustable Outputs
- Output Protected Against Overload and Accidental Short Circuit
BAPI’s EZ Voltage Converter is a cost-effective way of converting 24 VAC or VDC to 5, 12, 15 or 24 VDC for use on peripheral devices that require DC voltage. The converter is available with a 350 mA output. The revolutionary mounting system allows for 2.75” snaptrack, DIN rail or surface mounting.
Although most BAPI room units can run on 24 VAC power, converting to DC power eliminates the AC power “noise” which can affect the room sensor readings. BAPI’s tests show that fluctuating and inaccurate signal levels are possible when AC power wiring is present in the same cable as the signal lines. To minimize the AC voltage noise, the DC converter must be mounted as close to the controller as physically possible. Do not mount the converter at the sensor end of the wire, the AC will still couple into the sensor signal if you do. All fixed outputs of 5, 10, 12 or 15 VDC are adjustable ±10%. The adjustable model (-ADJ) has an output of 5-24 VDC.

VC2700-STM – 2.7 Amp Voltage Converter
The VC2700-STM is a 2.75” snaptrack-mountable 2.7 amp voltage converter. The unit takes a 24 VAC input and converts it to a regulated and adjustable output of 3-26 VDC.
The unit also has a filtered, unregulated 24 VAC output tap drawn from the 24 VAC input. Both the 24 VAC and the VDC outputs are routed through independent ON-OFF rocker switches. The switches allow you to remove power from the AC or DC loads without disturbing the other circuit.
There are status LEDs for 24 VAC IN, 24 VAC OUT, VDC OUT and VDC FAULT (indicating that the resettable circuit breaker has tripped). The user can determine at a glance whether there is a problem with the HVAC system power and where the problem exists. The resettable circuit breaker eliminates the need for fuses.
This unit has removable terminal block plugs at all inputs and outputs to simplify wiring. The unit can also be plugged directly into the BP2, BP4 or BP8 Backplanes of the ETA line to provide power to a variety of ETA modules or other peripherals, and features a user-selectable full wave or half wave rectification. The unit comes with an 8” piece of 2.75” snaptrack.

LVTM – Line Volt. Transformer Module
BAPI offers two styles of Line Voltage Transformer Module (LVTM) to simplify connecting an external transformer to the VC2700-STM Voltage Converter. The LVTM can sit side-by-side with the VC2700-STM in an 8” long piece of industry standard 2.75” snaptrack (TRK08).
The LVTM takes 120/240 VAC power and protects the input with a 3.15 amp resettable circuit breaker. Pluggable terminals provide a convenient way to terminate the primary and secondary windings of the transformer. Connectors on the end of the LVTM plug directly into the VC2700’s inputs for a clean connection without interconnecting wires.

PS17 & PS17CB – Power Supplies
The PS17 and PS17CB Power Supplies provide up to six 33 VDC, 3 Amp power supplies each. The PS17 features a 3 Amp fuse on each output while the PS17CB features a 3.15 Amp circuit breaker on each output. Each output has a green LED, which lights to show normal power.
Both power supplies use a 120 VAC to 24 VAC transformer with a rating of 75VA to 400 VA depending upon current consumption. Total your current consumption and pick the appropriate transformer from the table at right.
The PS17CB provides a transient line filter for the 120 VAC input to the transformer. Screw terminals on the PS17CB allow convenient termination of the input and output of the transformer. Plug a standard computer power cord into a duplex outlet and then into the line filter to power the PS17CB. A green LED lights when 120 VAC is applied and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Comes with an 12.5” piece of 2.75” Snaptrack.

PMPB5 – Pulse Meter Pulse Buffer
Many electrical, water or gas meters provide a pulse output with each pulse representing a specific quantity of the media being measured. These pulse outputs often need to be electrically isolated from the controller’s input by a buffer. The PMPB5 provides that buffer by receiving the pulses from the meter and recreating them as dry contact closures. An LED lights whenever the buffer contacts are closed. The PMPB5 fits standard 2.75” snaptrack.

TS1 & TS2 – Transient Suppressor
HVAC control systems can be subjected to electrical transients (temporary excess voltage) from various sources. Damage to control systems can occur if static electricity, lightning or contactors produce transients of sufficient magnitude and duration to overwhelm the protection built into the control system components. The TS1 and TS2 can significantly increase the transient protection and reduce the possibility of damage to the control system. Both modules fit in standard 2.75” snaptrack
The TS1 is specifically designed for network communications between control system components. The TS1 clamps voltages to 10 VAC or ±14 VDC Line to ground and 7.5 VDC line to line. Please Note: The added capacitance of the TS1 may be unsuitable for some combinations of communications line length and high speed data. For best operation you may have to reduce line lengths and add data repeaters.
The TS2 is designed to protect 4 to 20 mA current loops. The TS2 clamps the signal return line to 5 volts above ground and 1 volt below ground. The voltage supply line is clamped to ±39 VDC Line to ground.
