NOTES
ON ELECTRIC
SAFETY AND
ELECTROMAGNETIC
COMPATIBILITY.
Please, read carefully these instructions before proceeding with
the installation of the controller.
Class II instrument, rear panel mounting.
This controller has been designed with compliance to:
Regulations on electrical apparatus (appliance, systems and installa-
tions) according to the European Community directive 73/23 CEE amend-
ed by the European Comunity directive 93/68 CEE and the Regulations
on the essential protection requirements in electrical apparatus EN 61010-
1 (IEC 1010 - 1) : 90 +A1:92 + A2:95.
Regulations on Electromagnetic Compatibility according to the
European Community directive n089/336/CEE, amended by the European
Community directive n° 92/31/CEE and the following regulations:
Regulations on RF emissions
EN50081 - 1 residential environments
EN50081 - 2 for industrial environments
Regulation on RF immunity
EN500082-2 for industrial equipment and system
It is important to understand that it’s responsibility of the installer to ensure
the compliance of the regulations on safety requirements and EMC.
The device has no user serviceable parts and requires special equipment
and specialised engineers. Therefore, a repair can be hardly carried on
directly by the user. For this purpose, the manufacturer provides techni-
cal assistance and the repair service for its Customers.
Please, contact your nearest Agent for further information.
All the information and warnings about safety and electromagnetic
compatibility are marked with the Bsign, at the side of the note.

PRECAUTIONS B
Despite the fact that the instrument
has been designed to work in an
harsh and noisy environmental
(level IV of the industrial standard
IEC 801-4), it is strongly recom-
mended to follow the following
suggestions.
A
All the wiring must comply with the
local regulations.
The supply wiring should be rout-
ed away from the power cables.
Avoid to use electromagnetic con-
tactors, power relays and high
power motors nearby.
Avoid power units nearby, espe-
cially if controlled in phase angle
Keep the low level sensor input
wires away from the power lines
and the output cables.
If this is not achievable, use shield-
ed cables on the sensor input, with
the shield connected to earth.

Notes:
1] Make sure that the power supply
voltage is the same indicated on
the instrument.
2] Switch on the power supply only
after that all the electrical con-
nections have been completed.
3] In accordance with the safety reg-
ulations, the power supply switch
shall bring the identification of the
relevant instrument. The power
supply switch shall be easily
accessible from the operator.
4] The instrument is protected with
a 0.2 A~T fuse. In case of fail-
ure it is suggested to return the
instrument to the manufacturer
for repair.
5] To protect the instrument internal
circuits use:
- 2 A~T fuses for Relay outputs
- 1 A~T fuses for Triac outputs
6] Relay contacts are already pro-
tected with varistors.
Only in case of 24 V ~induc-
tive loads, use model A51-065-
30D7 varistors (on request)

2.3.4 PV CONTROL INPUT B
• Connect the wires with the
polarity as shown
• Use always compensation cable
of the correct type for the ther-
mocouple used
• The shield, if present, must be
connected to a proper earth.
• If a 3 wires system is used, use
always cables of the same
diameter (1mm2min.)
(line 20 Ω/lead maximum resis-
tance)
• When using a 2 wires system, use
always cables of the same diam-
eter (1,5mm2min.) and put a
jumper between terminals 5 and 6
AWhen the distance between the
controller and the sensor is 15
mt. using a cable of 1.5 mm2
diameter, produces an error on
the measure of 1°C.

When the display operation is
selected, the controller presents
automatically all the most impor-
tant parameters and configuration
information.
During the operation, the para-
meters values cannot be modi-
fied by the user
After 2 sec from the end of the
operation, the controller flashes the
display and returns to the normal
operating conditions.
