stallation, specically:
• VDE 0100 Setting up high-voltage systems up to 1000 V
• VDE 0815 Wiring cables
• Specimen Guideline on Conduits German designation
(MLAR).
The types of cable, cable lengths and cross-sections must
be selected in accordance with the manufacturer’s technical
data. If necessary, the cable types must be coordinated with
the competent local authorities and energy supply com-
panies. Low-voltage lines (24 V DC) must be routed
separate from the high-voltage lines. Flexible cables may
not be ush-mounted. Freely suspended cables must be
equipped with strain reliefs.
The power line on-site must be secured se-
parately and provided all poles separators.
After opening of the system housing voltage
carrying parts are exposed. The system must
be separated from the power supply and bat-
tery voltage before each intervention in the
Control Unit of the system.
Clamping points must be checked for tightness of threa-
ded connections and cable ends. Access to junction boxes,
clamping points and external drive control systems must be
ensured for maintenance work.
Commissioning, operation and maintenance
After the installation and after each modication in the
set up all functions must be checked with a trial run.
After the installation of the system is completed the
end-user must be introduced to all important operating
steps. If necessary, he must be advised of all remaining risks /
dangers.
The end-user must be instructed in intended use of the
drives and, if necessary, the safety instructions.The end-user
must be specically instructed that no additional forces,
except for the pressure and tension in the opening and
closing direction of the casement, may be applied to the
spindle, chain or lever of the drive.
Cables must be laid such way that they cannot
be sheared off, twisted or bent during operati-
on. It is recommended to perform an insulati-
on measurement of the system’s line network
and to document this.
note Post warning signs!
Before working on the system, it must be com-
pletely disconnected from the power supply
and emergency power supply (e.g. batteries)
and secured against being switched on again
accidentally. While working in the Control
Unit the workplace must be secured to prevent
unauthorised access. You must ensure that
unauthorised personnel are unable to open
the Control Unit.

The following key data must be taken into account when
dimensioning SHEV Control Units:
Due to the hardware and software, the EMB 8000+ is
limited by the following points. Conguration using the
software is guaranteed within these limits.
1. A maximum of 50 modules per Control Unit (including
CM, excluding PM and PMEs).
The following maximum number of modules of the same
type are supported per Control Unit (in the composite).
All values in the tables refer to the maximum assignment of
the module inputs / outputs. The current values are given for
maintaining the emergency power supply over a period of
72 hours. Other calculation bases on request.
The sum of the self-consumption of all modules in a Control
Unit must not exceed the maximum permissible current of
the Control Unit. To calculate the total power consumption,
the individual consumption of the installed modules must
be added.
The details of the outer diameter of cables refer to the
cable types common in Germany. The wire cross-sections
are given in mm². To maintain the electrical protection class
of the Control Unit housing, only one cable is permitted per
cable entry.
For checking purposes, the total number of cables required
must be determined in accordance with Table 1 and co-
ordinated with the number of cable entries in the Control
Units from Table 4.
2. A maximum of 30 Control Unit in the composite.
3. A maximum of 600 modules in a composite (including
CMs, excluding PMs and PMEs) e.g .: 30 Control Units
with 20 modules or 12 Control Units with 50 modules.
4. 150 Can actuators are supported at the same
time without blocking the triggering CM. Each ad-
ditional CAN actuator results in a recording delay of
9 ms.
CAN actuator is an actuator in a different Control
Unit than the one in which the sensor is located.

PreParIng assembly
The maximum allowable number of modules can be
easily determined by using the tables below. Only the
intrinsic consumption by the modules must be added.
The sum may not exceed the allowable value.
If this should be the case, either the number of modules
must be reduced or a Control Unit with a higher output
selected.
note
Because of the intrinsic power consumption of the
modules, their allowable number depends on the
version of the Control Unit.
In selecting the back-up batteries, the bridging time for
emergency power operation during a power failure must
be taken into account.
Note that the back-up battery type and any
Power-Module-Extension(s) PME used be congured
via the system software.
The housing size is determined by the number of
modules and their arrangement, the number of
required switching power supplies and the size of the
back-up batteries. Furthermore, attention must be paid
to the required cable feedthroughs within the Control
Unit housing, the number of which is dependent on the
size of the housing.
Use only back-up batteries with VdS approval!
How many ventilation groups are to be connected?
The Drive-Module DM enables a maximum current consumption of 10 a
for one ventilation group (DMX max. 20 a).

The Control-Module CM (rst re compartment) is required once in any
case. Each additional re compartment requires one Sensor-Module SM.
A maximum of 10 detectors may be connected to one signalling line.
Is there a control required for ventilation via wind and rain
sensors or a wind direction-dependent opening and closing in
case of re?
If so, a Weather-Module WM is required.
Should several Control Units be switched as a system unit via
CAN-BUS?
If so, adhere to the instructions for installation and commissioning
of the module. Conguration requires the licensed system software
of the manufacturer.

note
Determining the right equipment for the
Control Unit
In order to be able to determine the right version and equipment of
the Control Unit without a problem, the following procedure is recom-
mended:
How high is the maximum required drive current?
The maximum drive current determines the number of of switching po-
wer supplies as well as the number of Power-Module-Extensions PME.
One Power-Module PM or a single PME can provide a maximum of
24 a each via connected power supplies.
Important criteria for selection of back-up batteries for the
emergency power supply are:
• the maximum drive current
• the number and types of modules
• the number and types of connected detector

Calculating: maximum allowable number of
modules
In order to guarantee a high degree of adaptability to the variety of
structural requirements, the emB 8000+ is designed as a modular
SHEVS and ventilation system with regard to its digital BUS system
as well as its hardware. This is how re compartments as well as their
furnishing with ventilation and drive lines can be optimally adapted to
particular requirements with use of the relevant modules.
However, the number of modules per Control Unit is limited by the
safety requirements outlined in EN 12101-10 with regard to capacity
and emergency power supply. In case of re, the system must also
function reliably during a power failure and guarantee smoke and heat
ventilation. Because the modules themselves have their own current
consumption (with the exception of the Power-Module-Extension PME),
their number is therefore dependent on the version of the control
unit and the backup batteries used for the emergency power supply.

Space requirement for modules
Once the required number of modules is determined, their space requi-
rement on the standard rail can be easilycalculated with the respective
module width:
USB
Main functions of the modules:
• The Power-Module PM provides - depending on the switching power
supply - 5 a, 10 a or 24 a.
• One Power-Module-Extension PME provides an additional 24 a.
• The Control-Module CM or Sensor-Module SM have at their disposal
three signalling lines with a max. of 10 detectors in each case per
signalling line and an option to connect ventilation controls.
• The Drive-Module DM has at its disposal one drive line with up to
max. 10 a (DMX max. 20 a) switching current. The triggering of
gas pressure generators or magnetic clamps is possible with appro-
priate software conguration. The connection of ventilation con-
trols and operational status displays is intended.
• The Weather-Module WM for connection of wind and rain sensors and
/ or wind direction nders is required only once (normally).
The difference between the Control-Module CM and the
Sensor-Module SM is that the Control-Module CM must
be employed only once and obligatorily for the rst re
compartment. The CM has in addition a USB port and its
ventilation control commands are by default superior to
all ventilation groups (joint closing).

The modules‘ total own current consumption amounts to
107,4 mA. The appropriate versions of the respective Control
Unit can be determined from the top table.
If the Drive-Modules are utilized with their maximum current
consumption as in the example above, there will be a total drive
current requirement of 60 a (4 x DM plus 1 x DMX).
The appropriate Control Unit would be in this case the
emB 8000+ / 72 a with 2 x 38 Ah.
The emB8000+ / 72 a with 2 x 24 Ah would be under-
dimensioned because of its modules‘ intrinsic consumption of
107,4 mA!

Connection of modules
When connecting the modules, one must differentiate between three
kinds of connections:
Connection to the main power supply of
• Power-Module PM,
• Power-Module-Extension PME,
• Drive-Module DM / DMX / IDM
All modules with connection to the main power supply are secured with
fuses. BUS connection (ribbon cable) of all modules on the bottom of
the module, with the exception of the Power-Module-Extension PME. The
communication between PME and PM is made via ribbon connection
on top of the module.
If the modules are arranged on several standard rails, a special BUS
cable (particular length) must connect the BUS on the lower standard rail
with that on the upper standard rail.
Connection of external components (detectors, drives, etc.) via plug
terminals on top of the module.
Arrangement and order of modules
The modules are mounted on the standard rail directly next to each other.
Following module arrangement must be absolutely adhered to:
• The Power-Module PM and the Power-Module-Extension PME must
be mounted to the extreme left and as the rst element on the
standard rail. Concurrently, the Power-Module-Extensions PME are
always placed to the left of Power-Module PM.
• The Power-Module PM is followed to the right by the Control-Module
CM (which is normally followed by one Drive-Module DM or DMX or
IDM).

The max. power consumption per Drive-Modules DM /
DMX / IDM, which can be connected to a switching
power supply with PM or PME depends on the respective
switching power supply (5 a, 10 a, 24 a).
e.g. Switching power supply 10 a with one DM with max. 10 a current
consumption. Possible, however, are if need be also two DM with
two ventilation groups with a maximum current consumption of only
5 a.
e.g. Switching power supply 24 a for two DM with max. 10 a current
consumption each. If need be, however, four DM, in as far as
the maximum current consumption doesn‘t exceed 10 a per
DM and 24 a total (analogueously this applies to Drive-Module
DMX).
If this has not been done already in the factory, all connections
for the internal power supply and back-up batteries must be
made. This includes connection of the switching power supplies
to Power-Module PM and if need be PME as well as placement
of the back-up batteries within the Control Unit housing and its
connection. In addition, all Drive-Modules DM / DMX / IDM must be
connected to the main power supply. No other modules require a con-
nection to the main power supply.

Basics:
Up to 30 EMB 8000+ Control Units can be networked with one another
via the „OnBoard“ CAN bus interface. The maximum cable length for the
entire bus segment is 400 meters (cable type Y-ST-Y 2 x 2 x 0.8 mm).With
different cable types, the maximum cable length can vary signicantly.
A CAN repeater must be used for longer bus segments.
In order to network the Control Units, the licensed conguration Soft-
ware Alpha required. The bus topology must always be built up in series,

stub lines or ring lines are not permitted. The shield of the bus cable
may only be connected on one side (asymmetrical), the ground of two
Control Units may not be connected via the bus cable in order to avoid
interference. The integrated terminating resistor (120) must be activated
using a DIP switch on the rst and last EMB 8000+ in the composite; the
integrated resistor must be deactivated using a DIP switch on all other
Control Units in the composite.

❐Is the maximum line between the CAN terminal block and the
CM 2 meters long and with YV 3 x 0,8mm (twisted)?
❐Was the cabling measurement successful?
(see test measurement, expected result between 60 and 90 )
If a repeater is used (due to the length of the cable),
the following must also be checked:
❐Is the repeater correctly set using the dip switch?
(100 kbits)
❐Have the two end resistors been activated by jumpers on the
repeater? (120 )
❐The cabling measurement must be carried out for each segment,
if all measurements were successful (see test measurement,
expected result between 60 and 90 )
All specied values (cable length, resistance at the repeater, measure-
ment results, etc.) always refer to the cable types recommended by
aumüller Y-(St)-Y 2 x 2 x 0,8 mm .
If you use a different cable type (e.g. JE-H (St) H FE 180 /
E90 2x2x0,8mm) please contact us at the planning stage in order to be
able to consider possible deviations in cable lengths, resistances, etc.
at the planning stage.
