The Metasys SNC Series Network Control Engine Standard Control Panel is a prewired, preassembled standard control panel that contains an SNC network engine. Some panel models come with an SNC network engine that has either an integral display or remote door-mounted display. Also, some models also include a USB-to-LonWorks® (LON) adapter for LON applications. This predesigned solution saves time and money because it avoids expensive and time-consuming field installations and inspections.
The control panel comes assembled and mounted in a NEMA 1 steel enclosure. In addition to the engine, every assembly contains a power supply that incorporates a 5 A circuit breaker, a 96 VA 120/24 VAC transformer, and two 120 VAC outlets. Every panel includes a five-port Ethernet switch with 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps. The Metasys SNC Series of network control engines are Ethernet-based, supervisory engines that connect building automation system (BAS) networks to IP networks. The SNC Series Network Control Engine also features onboard inputs and outputs for direct control of equipment. The SNC monitors and controls networks of field-level building automation devices that includes HVAC equipment, lighting, security, and fire safety equipment. The SNC Series of network control engines succeed the Network Control Engine (NCE) series to further expand and enhance the Metasys supervisory control capabilities.
The sub-panel assembly contains all of the same mounted components as a comparable standard panel, but without the enclosure. Use the sub-panel assembly if it is critical to reserve the panel mounting location in the designated installation area that uses an empty enclosure. The panel field installer can add the sub-panel at a later date.
Additional NEMA ratings, enclosure materials, and customizations are available through the Custom Panel Group at BE-CustomPanelGroup@jci.com.
