General Information
These instructions are intended for the manufacturer of the end product and
are not designed for passing on to the operator of the end product. With
regard to the specialist information contained herein, these instructions can
serve as a basis for drawing up the instructions for the end products.
It is essential to note the information contained in these instructions! In
doing so, you can prevent mistakes being made in installing or connecting the
system which could result in…
- injury and accidents as well as
- damage to the drive system or the end product.
To supply the voltage, use only a DewertOkin DC power supply!
The DewertOkin DC power supply includes an earth-free electric circuit which
is isolated from the supply voltage via double or reinforced insulation.
DewertOkin accepts no liability for damage caused as a result of …
- non-observance of these instructions,
- alterations to the product not approved by DewertOkin or
- the use of spare parts not manufactured or approved by DewertOkin – these may not ensure adequate safety!
Due to the policy of ongoing product improvement, DewertOkin reserves the right to carry out technical changes at any time without prior notification!
Designated Use
The CU155 drive control unit is designed for installing in end products… to
control motorised adjustment devices in movable furniture components (e.g.
beds, chairs…)
The CU155 drive control unit is not intended for use…
- in an environment where inflammable or explosive gases or vapours (e.g. anaesthetics) are likely to occur,
- in a damp environment, i.e. outdoors
- in beds intended for cleaning in wash tunnels
- in applications in which inadvertent movements are not prevented by appropriate technical measures.
Prerequisites
The installation steps described in these instructions must be performed by a
fully trained electrical engineer.
- This being the case, you should never carry out this work yourself unless you are a qualified electrical engineer or
- you should entrust this work to suitably qualified persons only.
Conformity according to EC Directives
The CU155 drive control unit is supplied ex factory as a machine not ready for
use in accordance with the EC “Machinery” Directive. In other words, you may
not put the drive control system into operation until you have met the safety
objectives of the “Machinery” Directive and issued a corresponding Declaration
of Conformity!
The drive control unit with DewertOkin DC power supply meets the safety
objectives of the EC Directives concerning Low voltage and Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC).
The CU155 drive control unit is not a medical product – for installing into
same, manufacture in conformity with the EC Directive for Medical Products or
other regulations is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the end
product.
Caution!
For your own safety!
- Shutdown in an emergency is achieved by pulling out the mains plug from the DC power supply! The mains plug must therefore be accessible at all times when the system is in operation to ensure it can be quickly pulled out of the wall socket in an emergency.
- Avoid subjecting the main’s connection lead and connection cables to mechanical loads. Regular visual checks of the mains connection lead should be carried out at short-term intervals and in particular each time it has been subjected to a mechanical load.
- If the mains connection lead of the DC power supply gets damaged, it must be replaced in order to prevent hazards. Work to and replacement of the mains connection lead may only be carried out by specialist personnel holding the qualifications described on page 3 or by persons who have taken part and successful completed the corresponding training programmes offered by DewertOkin.
- In the Operating Instructions to be drawn up by yourselves, it is essential that you draw the operator´s attention to the points mentioned here.
Getting to Know the System
The CU155 drive control unit is intended for the German market and complies
with the Law applicable in Germany in implementation of relevant EC
Directives.
Product versions
To operate the drive controls, further components, such as from 1 to 4 slave
drives, (5 slave drives optional) handset … are required.
Reverter-Plug
The optionally available reverter-plug (see page 7) allows flexible adjustment
of the motor’s running direction to match the application. The controls and
handset can therefore be standardized.

Fitting
Caution!
Only ever connect or disconnect electrical components when they are voltage-
free.
Included in the supply package is the drive control unit and depending on the order a DC power supply, a handset and up one to five slave drives. The components are prewired and ready to plug in.
Installation
The CU155 drive control unit can be screwed to the application at the 4 fixing
points using suitable screws (e.g. M4x50 screws). The surface onto which the
controls are mounted must be level and flat. It is important in the
application that no mechanical forces (e.g. torsional forces etc.) are brought
to bear on the drive controls or casing parts. Such forces can bring about
damage (e.g. cracks) to the casing parts.
Electrical connection
In the Operating Instructions to be issued by you, point out to the operator
that if leads, in particular the mains connection lead, are driven over they
could sustain damage. Mechanical loads should also be avoided.
When routing the cables make sure that they
- cannot get entangled or trapped,
- are not subjected to mechanical loads (i.e. do not pull, apply pressure or bend),
- cannot get damaged in any other way.
Make sure that the cables, in particular the connection lead of the voltage
supply, are fastened to the application with adequate strain relief and kink
protection and that suitable constructional measures prevent the connection
lead from trailing on the floor when the application is being moved.
First connect the slave drives and controls, as shown (see page 11). Make sure
that any sockets not being used are sealed off with blind plugs, – otherwise
the protection category is not guaranteed. Do not insert the mains plug of the
DewertOkin DC power supply until all the components have been connected to the
CU155 control unit. Afterwards fit the plug pull-out safeguard (see page 7).
Fitting the reverter plug
In order to fit the reverter-plug (5), a fin (6) must be broken off the plug
pull-out safeguard (1) at the relevant socket. This is easy to do by hand. The
motor cable plug (7) is then inserted into the reverter-plug (5) which in turn
is inserted into the corresponding socket of the control system. The plug then
sits at the front of the plug pull-out protection (1).
Fitting the
plug pull-out protection
Fit the plug pull-out protection (1) to the drive control unit (2) by allowing
it to engage into the guides (3). Additionally, it can be firmly connected to
the drive control system using suitable screws (4) (ST 2.9 x 6.5; ISO7049).
Caution!
For your own safety!
There is a risk of sustaining injury by getting trapped if the mechanical
connections between the fitting and the drive system are loosened.
Dismantling
Operate the application to travel to the starting position and disconnect the
drive system from the mains voltage, then the drive control unit from the
DewertOkin DC power supply. Pull-off the plug pull-out protection (1), take
this off first and then the cables from the respective sockets. Loosen the
retaining screws – the drive control system can now be removed from the
application.
Operation
For drawing up the Operating Instructions for the end product, you can use the
specialist information described herein. Please bear in mind that these
instructions are intended for you as a specialist and not for the possibly
non-professional operator of the end product.
Attention!
- The electric adjustment drive is not intended to be used by small children or the unsupervised infirm.
- The electric adjustment drive is not a toy for children to play with.
Handset (example)
The handset (COMFORT type) can be equipped with up to 10 adjustment keys. The
control elements are assigned as follows
Key | Function |
---|---|
T1 | Motor 1 up |
T2 | Motor 1 down |
T3 | Motor 1 + 2 (Reset up) |

T5 | Motor 2 up |
T6 | Motor 2 down |
T7 | Motor 3 up |
T8 | Motor 3 down |
T9 | Motor 4 up |

Maintenance and Repairs
- At regular intervals carry out the inspections. The recommended inspection period is: 6 months
- In addition to the above, the following checks should be carried out at shorter intervals
- Regular visual checks for damage of all kinds
- Check the housing for cracks and fractures and the mains connection lead for signs of pinching and shearing-off. Also check the strain relief with kink protection, in particular after each case of mechanical loading.
- Regular checks of the protective conductor resistance and leakage currents (by a specialist)
