INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
- Prepare the cut-out with proper dimension as shown in figure.
- Remove clamp from Controller.
- Push the Timer through panel cut-out and secure the Controller in its place by tightening the side clamp.
SAFETY INSTRUCTION MECHANICAL
-
Ambient temperature and relative humidity surrounding the Controller must not exceed the maximum specified limits.
-
The Controller in its installed state must be protected against excessive electrostatic or electromagnetic interferences.
ELECTRICAL -
The Controller must be wired as per wiring diagram & it must comply with local electrical regulation.
-
The Electrical noise generated by switching Inductive loads might create momentary Fluctuation in display, latch up, data loss or permanent damage to the instrument. To reduce this use snubber circuit across the load.

of load.This increases life of actuators like contactors but also produces
large errors (between PV & SV).This parameter will only be prompted when
compressor mode is selected as AUTO.| 2°C

turned OFF will turn ON only after restart time, regardless difference between

limits.| No
If Alarm activation is desired even under Power-up condition, Set this
parameter value to
Alarm Ack.| | | Once Alarm is activated, user has following three options to
de-activate it.

UP key.
Once Alarm is activated, it can be de-activated either by pressing UP key or
when PV falls within the alarm limits.

action is ON-OFF. It sets the dead band between ON & OFF switching of the
Output. Larger value of hysteresis minimize the number of ON-OFF operation of
load.T his increases life of actuators like contactors but also produces large
errors (between PV & SV).| 2°C
