Airmaster Q1 hardware Installation Guide
Version 1.0
SAFETY WARNING
Do not operate the Airmaster Q1 until you and all personnel concerned have read
and understood this installation guide. Failure to follow instructions could result
in death or serious injury.
Important notes
This document serves as installation guide for all Airmaster Q1 products of CMC NV.
Installation and startup may only be done by trained personnel according to safe
engineering practices and with the observance of all relevant local health and safety
requirements and regulations.
This document could be subject to changes. Please contact our factory in case of doubt
in order to ensure that you have received the latest version.
This document serves as a manual for the installation of the controller. Remark that the
controller always acts as a component of a complete system in which it is integrated. As
such other documentation for the installation related to the integration of the controller in
the complete system will have to be consulted as well. Reference to such other
documentation is not possible from within the scope of this document. Regardless of the
content of any other documentation, the content of this documentation needs to be fully
respected.

Remarks:
It remains the responsibility of the integrator of this controller (being a component in the total system) to assure that
the integration of the controller (in terms of wiring and use of other components) is done according to all applicable
regulations. In this context we remind that the controller is not a safety device and that care must be taken that other
components fulfill required safety functionalities.
The printing of text and symbols might differ slightly from the product you have.
Overview:
Page 8
CMC NV – Airmaster Q1 Installation Guide – V1.0 – MANY1032A.EN
Indication: 24Vac
24Vac shall be supplied by transformer in which the primary windings are separated from the secondary windings by reinforced
insulation, double insulation or a screen connected to the positive conductor terminal. Do not connect any of the leads of the
secondary winding to earth as this can result in severe damage of the controller.
C-DI is a voltage output to be used for the external contacts (relay, switch, …) addressing the DI input connections. C-DI is
approximately 24V dc. Only use this output for its dedicated functionality.
Page 9
CMC NV – Airmaster Q1 Installation Guide – V1.0 – MANY1032A.EN
The digital inputs are addressed via external contacts between C-I and the DI1 .. DI8 connections.
Maximum Temperature rating of the cables for relays needs to be at least 100 °C
Page 10
CMC NV – Airmaster Q1 Installation Guide – V1.0 – MANY1032A.EN
Three fixed analog inputs are available. All three have 2 dedicated connections:
For Analog input 1 and Analog input 2, the C connections (C-ANA1 and C-ANA2) are voltage outputs (referenced to the GND of
the controller). The maximum current rating per output is 50mA. The voltage level is approximately 24 V dc.
These voltage outputs (C-ANA1 and C-ANA2) shall only be used with devices that provide the current for respectively AN1 and
AN2. Only connect external components to this input that comply with this specified current range.
Functional earthing
In case the external components demand for a GND connection (such as for functional earthing, It is recommended to use
shielded cabling for analog signals), it is advised to use the faston connections:
Page 11
CMC NV – Airmaster Q1 Installation Guide – V1.0 – MANY1032A.EN
Such input can be recognized by having 3 connection pins in its connector. If a connector with 2 connection pins is installed, it
is a RS485 connector (see further).
In case an optional analog input is present, it behaves as Analog input 3. Hence all remarks related to Analog input 3 apply to
this input.
The analog output provides a current ranging between 0 and 20 mA. The current leaves the controller through ANA-OUT to go
to the external device and shall return via AGND. For proper functionality the impedance of the external device shall be 500 Ω
resistive maximum.

Functional earthing
In case the external components demand for a GND connection (such as for functional earthing, It is recommended to use
shielded cabling for analog signals), it is advised to use the faston connection:
This connection shall only be used for connecting the controller with another component’s RS485 connection or a RS485 bus.
Page 13
CMC NV – Airmaster Q1 Installation Guide – V1.0 – MANY1032A.EN
Such input can be recognized by having 2 connection pins in its connector. If a connector with 3 connection pins is installed, it
is an analog input connector (see above).
In case such optional connection(s) are installed, these connection(s) shall only be used for connecting the controller with
another component’s RS485 connection or a RS485 bus.
Connections only to be done to standard Ethernet using RJ45 connector and at lease cat-5e rated cabling.

This input is only to be connected to a Current Transformer (CT) supplied by CMC. The selection of CT is done in accordance
with the installation and is as such not covered by this manual. Assure the maximum C.T. rating is 20 mA. Do not connect a
C.T. with a rating greater than 20 mA to this CT input.
For the installation, take into account the safety precautions that apply to Current Transformers.

In operation, high lethal voltages apply on these connections. Assure all power is switched off at the moment of
installation. Never assume power is off but always check the circuit.
The signals applied to the 3-Phase monitoring inputs of the controller must be protected by fuses as illustrated:
Wiring:
Cable cross sectional area solid: min: 1.5 mm2; max: 6 mm2.
Cable cross sectional area stranded: min: 1.5 mm2; max: 6 mm2.
Always use bootlace ferrule with stranded wiring.

Section 5: Mounting
The Airmaster Q1 must be mounted in a front panel, enclosure or housing, which must have a suitable protection degree for the
electronics.
