QCL-DM88

Our COSYS Application and System Controls work along with our enterprise software platform OspreyFMS to provide a meaningful context.

Quest Controls’ QCL-DM88 dimming module are specifically designed for Daylighting applications using dimmable ballasts. These dimming modules connect to BACnet Controllers over the LINKnet network.
Each of the device’s eight outputs is capable of controlling up to fifty 1-10V dimming ballasts. Each output has an associated photocell input with a calibration potentiometer to adjust sensitivity of the input which the controller uses in a built-in Proportional-Integral (PI) loop to smoothly adjust the lighting levels to the desired setpoint.

Features

  • Built-in PI control loop
  • Communicating on LINKnet
  • Easy-to-mount housing
  • Calibration potentiometer for photocell

Applications

The QCL-DM88 provides up to eight channels of simple distributed daylighting control per module reducing field wiring by being able to locate the module close to the zones being controlled.
