SAFETY NOTICE
Failure to follow below instructions will result in death or serious injury
- Electrical equipment should be installed only by qualified specialist. No responsibility is assured by the manufacturer or any of its subsidiaries for any consequences resulting from the non-compliance to these instructions.
- Check the unit for cracks and damages due to transportation. Do not install damaged equipment.’
- Do not open the unit. There is no serviceable parts inside.
- Fuses of fast type (FF) with a maximum rating of 6A must be connected to the power supply and phase voltage inputs, in close proximity of theunit.
- Disconnect all power before working on equipment.
- When the unit is connected to the network do not touch terminals.
- Short circuit terminals of unused current transformers.
- Any electrical parameter applied to the device must be in the range specified in the user manual.
- Do not try to clean the device with solvent or the like. Only clean with a dry cloth.
- Verify correct terminal connections before applying power.
- Only for front panel mounting.
INSTALLATION
Before installation:
- Read the user manual carefully, determine the correct connection diagram.
- Remove all connectors and mounting brackets from the unit, then pass the unit through the mounting opening.
- Put mounting brackets and tighten. Do not tighten too much, this can brake the enclosure.
- Make electrical connections with plugs removed from sockets, then place plugs to their sockets.
- Note that the power supply terminal is separated from measurement terminals, with common neutral point.
Below conditions may damage the device:
- Incorrect connections.
- Incorrect power supply voltage.
- Voltage at measuring terminals beyond specified range.
- Current at measuring terminals beyond specified range
****Current Transformers must be used for current measurement.
No direct connection allowed
Below conditions may cause abnormal operation:
- Power supply voltage below minimum acceptable level.
- Power supply frequency out of specified limits
- Current transformers not matching related phases.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
**** Do not install the unit closeto high electromagnetic noise emitting devices like contactors, high current busbars, switchmode power supplies and the like
Although the unit is protected against electromagnetic disturbance, excessive disturbance can affect the operation, measurement precision and data communication quality.
- Use cables of appropriate temperature range.
- Use adequate cable section, at least 0.75mm2 (AWG18).
- For current transformer inputs, use at least 1.5mm2 section (AWG15) cable.
- The current transformer cable length should not exceed 1.5 meters. If longer cable is used, increase the cable section proportionally.
- Current transformers must have 5A output.
**** Current Transformers must be used for current measurement. No direct connection allowed
