    CQ 2200

    Hardwired power sequencer with two timed events for 20A circuits.

    The CQ 2200 is a compact, hardwired power sequencer that provides two timed events to manage inrush current on a single 20A circuit. It is designed for smaller AVL systems where installers need to stage amplifier power-up or create simple, reliable on and off audio equipment delays.

    POWER SEQUENCING

    Staged power-up for single 20A circuits, simplified.

    High-current devices like power amplifiers can overload a circuit if they all turn on at once. The CQ 2200 solves this by staging the power-up sequence across two events, preventing inrush current trips on a single 20A service. This simple, hardwired unit includes two 20A duplex receptacles, allowing you to separate front-end equipment from amplification on a timed delay for safer, more reliable system operation.

    Engineered for straightforward installation, the CQ 2200 can operate as a standalone sequencer or be integrated with other CQ Series devices for multi-zone control. Remote activation is managed via a simple contact closure, making it easy to connect to key switches or control systems without proprietary accessories. It’s a practical, economical solution for managing power in smaller AVL installations.

    FAQ

    FAQs about the CQ 2200

    Can I use this with other sequencers?

    Yes, the CQ 2200 is part of the CQ Series and can be interconnected with other CQ devices to create larger, synchronized multi-zone sequencing systems. It operates on the same plug-and-play signal line.

    How is the CQ 2200 controlled?

    The CQ 2200 is activated by a simple, low-voltage contact closure. This allows for easy connection to remote key switches, push buttons, or third-party automation systems without needing special equipment.

    What problem does having two sequence events solve?

    Two events allow you to manage high inrush current on a single 20A circuit. You can power on sensitive front-end gear first, then delay the power-on for high-current amplifiers, preventing circuit overloads.

    Where is the CQ 2200 typically installed?

    Its compact chassis is designed to be mounted out of sight, typically behind an equipment rack, inside a cabinet, or in a utility closet. It is a hardwired device intended for permanent installation.
