NOTE: Tips for optimal use

• Consult the information in the technical data table.
• For further information and configuration please refer to the datasheet.

Product Description
The PISA-M devices are miniature four-channel protection modules for 24 V and 12 V systems.

Intended Use

This device is designed for installation in an enclosure and is intended for commercial use, such as in industrial control, process control, monitoring and measurement equipment or the like. Do not use this device in equipment, where malfunctioning may cause severe personal injury or threaten human life without additional appropriate safety devices, that are suited for the end- application. If this device is used in a manner outside of its specification, the protection provided by the device may be impaired.

Installation Instruction

Install the device in an enclosure providing protection against electrical, mechanical and fire hazards. Install the device onto a DIN rail according to EN 60715 with the input terminals on top of the unit.
Use an appropriately sized 24 V or 12 V power supply, which can deliver the peak current required to trip the load channels. If peak currents are too low, the PISA-M will trip channels in case of voltage drops to protect the power supply from overload.
Make sure that the wiring is correct by following all local and national codes. Use appropriate copper cables that are designed for a minimum operating temperature of +60 °C for ambient temperatures up to +45 °C, +75 °C for ambient temperatures up to +60 °C
and +90 °C for ambient temperatures up to +70 °C. Ensure that all strands of a stranded wire enter the terminal connection.
The device is designed for pollution degree 2 areas in controlled environments. No condensation or frost is allowed. The enclosure of the device provides a degree of ingress protection of IP20. The housing does not provide protection against spilled liquids.
The isolation of the devices is designed to withstand impulse voltages up to 1.5 kV according to IEC 60664-1. The input can be powered from a regulated power supply or a similar DC source.
The input must be powered from a PELV or SELV source in order to maintain a SELV or PELV output. Check for correct input polarity. The device will not operate when the voltage is reversed.
A disconnecting means shall be provided for the input of the device.
The device is designed as “Class of Protection III” equipment according to IEC 61140.
The device is designed for convection cooling and does not require an external fan. Do not obstruct airflow and do not cover ventilation grid!
Keep the following minimum installation clearances: 40 mm on top, 30 mm on the bottom, 0 mm left and right side. Increase the 0 mm to 15 mm in case the adjacent device is a heat source. Between multiple PISA-M modules no clearance is needed. The device is designed for altitudes up to 5000 m.
The maximum surrounding air temperature is +70 °C. The operational temperature is the same as the ambient or surrounding air temperature and is defined 3 cm below the device.
The device is designed to operate in areas between 5 % and 95 % relative humidity.

Functional Description

The output can supply any kind of loads, including inductive and capacitive loads. The maximum size of capacitive loads is specified in the “Technical Data” table. Larger load capacitors might result in an unintended turn-off of the channel.
Do not apply return voltages from the load to the output terminals higher than 30 V.
Do not parallel outputs for higher output currents.
Do not connect outputs in a series connection for higher output voltages.
Do not connect batteries for charging purposes to the output of the device.
Output channels can be switched on and off separately by pushing the corresponding control button for 50 ms or 1 s, depending on selected button reaction style. A channel that is switched off is indicated by the red LED.
If the total current is larger than 20 A for 2 s or more, the device turns off the output channels, starting with overloaded channels, then continuing with CH4 to CH1 until the total output current is 20 A or less. The tripping current can be set individually for all channels. The tripping characteristic can be set as a common parameter for all channels.
