Warning

This device is constructed for connection in 1-phase network AC/DC 24 ­ 240 V and must be installed according to norms valid in the state of an application. Installation, connection, setting and servicing must be carried out by qualified electrician sta only, which have perfectly understood the instructions and functions of the device.
This device contains protection against overvoltage peaks and disturbing impulses in the power supply network. For the correct function of the protection of this device, there must be suitable protections of higher degrees (A,B,C) installed in front of them and according to the standards, interference of switching devices must be securely eliminated (contactors, motors, inductive loads, etc.). Before installation, make sure that the device is de-energized and the main switch is in the “OFF” position.
Dont install the device to sources of excessive electromagnetic interference. Ensure correct installation by perfect air circulation so that during continuous operation and a higher ambient temperature, the device does not exceed the maximum allowed operating temperature. For installation and setting use a screwdriver with a width of approx 2 mm. Keep in mind that this is a fully electronic device and approach accordingly with the installation. Non- problematic function of the device is also dependent on the previous method of transportation, storage, and handling. In case of any signs of damage, deformation, malfunction, or missing parts, dont install this device and claim it at the dealer. The product must be treated as electronic waste at the end of its life.

Function

Each thermostat has its own sensor, rough and fi ne temperature setting, selectable hysteresis and its separated output contact.
The desired temperature is set as the sum value of the selected rough and fi ne temperature setting.
Example:
Required temperature ……………. +25 °C (77 °F)
Rough setting ………………………….. +20 °C (68 °F)
Fine setting ………………………………… +5 °C (41 °F)

The device monitors the fault state of each sensor (short circuit or interruption) – if a sensor malfunction occurs, the yellow LED lights up and the corresponding red LED flashes. The respective output contact is opened in the event of a failure.
The device can also be operated as a simple thermostat (with one sensor). In this case, it is necessary to connect a 10 kΩ resistor instead of a sensor to the unused input (included in the product package).

Independent function of thermostats
The device acts as two separate simple thermostats.

Dependent function of thermostats
Thermostats are connected „in series“ – i.e. thermostat T1 is blocked by thermostat T2.
This can be used e.g. so that thermostat T1 is operational and thermostat T2 is interlocking (emergency – e.g. when the device overheats).
