Intended use
The VIBTRONIC SC…-2 and SCE…-2 type controllers are designed and con-
structed as alternating voltage regulators for controlling magnetic vibrators; they
operate on the voltage regulation principle (phase regulation).
The controllers have been designed for use with mains networks having a fre-
quency of either 50 or 60 Hz and a sinusoidal voltage.
Do not use the controllers in environments with explosion hazards (explosives,
gassy environments)! Observe the information regarding the intended uses given
in Chapter 1.3!

For your safety
You will find three different types of symbols in this operating manual which are
intended to point out important information:
The DANGER warning describes procedures or conditions which could have dan-
gerous or even life-threatening consequences for the person installing or using the
equipment.
You will find this information with procedures in which a danger of damage to
equipment exists. However, this may also result in personal injury (e.g. in case of
fire).
Notes provide information about individual procedures. Notes explain circum-
stances, clarify terminology or provide tips for simplifying processes or proce-
dures.
Although we developed the VIBTRONIC controllers taking into account all safety
measures, operational error cannot be completely eliminated. In the interest of
your safety and that of your colleagues, observe the following information:
When connected to mains, dangerously high voltages are present inside the con-
troller. Touching electrically live components can be lethal! Before switching on
mains power, ensure that no live parts can be touched.
Explosions can be life threatening and result in great damage to equipment.
Do not use the controller in environments with explosion hazards.
The controller of type SC(E)…-2 is not designed for environments with explosion
hazards or firedamp environments and must not be used in such without first tak-
ing appropriate measures.
Unsuitable controllers, operation with the incorrect mains voltage/frequency could
result in damage to the magnetic vibrator. Make sure that the connection values
are correct and compare them with the device-type plates!

1.3 Areas of Application
VIBTRONIC controllers of type SC…-2 and SCE…-2 – hereafter abbreviated with
SC(E)…-2 – make possible the stepless adjustment of the working stroke on the
magnetic vibrator and, thus, of the conveyor rate of vibration conveyor devices.
The controllers must be used together only with AVITEQ magnetic vibrators or
equivalent magnetic vibrators produced by other manufacturers in accordance
with their intended use. Information in the vibration conveyor device and the mag-
netic vibrator operating manuals is also to be observed!
The controllers must only be operated with magnetic vibrators produced from third
party manufacturers when their connection specifications are identical to those of
the AViTEQ magnetic vibrators. For more information, see Chapter 5.2!
The controllers are not intended for any other purposes.
Never use in the following cases:
l Do not use for operation in environments subject to explosion risk or firedamp
(explosives, (pit-) gas, risk of dust explosion)! The units are not explosion-
protected!
l Do not use at ambient temperatures below -5 and over +40 °C (cabinet unit)
and +50 °C (panel mounting unit), or in tropical climates or areas where dew
or condensation could form! The units are designed for operation in moderate
climatic environments!
l Do not use together with magnetic vibrators which are not compatible with
the controllers!
l Do not use mains networks and mains frequencies other than those for which
the controllers were designed!
l Do not use at elevations above 1,000 m above sea level without first consult-
ing AViTEQ Vibrationstechnik GmbH!
Connecting to mains and magnetic drives
Only AVITEQ controllers connected to a sinusoidal mains network may be used for
operating the AVITEQ magnetic drives. For each AVITEQ magnetic drive model
there is a corresponding controller.
Other control and connection options are not included.

2 Transport, Storage
l Delivery: we ship controllers and accessories in purpose-built packaging to
ensure that they reach their destination without damage.
If the packing is visibly damaged in a way that indicates damage to the contents,
contact the forwarding agent! In further proceedings, take notice of the General
Conditions of Business of the forwarding agent in order not to risk your claim for
damages by improperly filled out forms!
F Storage: unless special agreements concerning packing and storage have
been made, the units, either packed or unpacked, must be stored and trans-
ported under "normal" conditions. This means in enclosed rooms with tem-
peratures between -25 and +65 °C, relative humidity not to exceed 80 %
(no dew or condensation), and no mechanical shocks or vibrations.
Transporting and storing the units under inappropriate conditions may cause per-
manent damage. Such damage may not be detectable from the outside.
AViTEQ Vibrationstechnik GmbH does not cover this case in its warranty and is not
liable for any consequential damage.
2.1 Extent of Delivery
C After unpacking, compare all parts against the bill of delivery and accompany-
ing documents to ensure that all have arrived and are free of damage. This
includes the controller in the installation or enclosed model itself, the circuit
diagram packed together with the controller and, with installation models,
separate potentiometer with rotary-type knob and scale for setting the work-
ing stroke.
C Compare the data on the magnetic vibrator and controller type labels with the
delivery invoice and order documents!
C Check to see that the magnetic vibrator and controller match by referring to
chapter 3.4 of this operating manual! Before using magnetic vibrators pro-
duced by other manufacturers, you must first make certain that the specifica-
tions are suitable for operation with the VIBTRONIC controller (see
chapter 5.2)! If in doubt, contact us! We'll be glad to help you!

Unauthorised combinations may result in destruction of the magnetic vibrator or
controller! Mains voltage, mains frequency and vibration frequency must be identi-
cal! The nominal current of the controller must be the same or greater than the
peak current of the magnetic vibrator. Only connect compatible devices!
2.2 Disposal
2.2.1 Packing Materials
The following materials are used by us for the shipping of controllers, depending
on the mode of transport:
l Polyethylene foil (PE) for device protection
l Corrugated cardboard for outer and inner packing
l Wooden cases for outer packing
l Paper shavings for filler material
l Styrofoam (Flo-Pack) for filler and damping material
All packing materials should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations of
the delivery destination.
Cardboard containers and paper packing tapes can be recycled within the RESY
Disposal and Re-utilisation System. Where used, packaging foil, packing tapes,
and foam foils are made from polyethylene (PE), the CFC-free cushions are usually
made from polystyrene foam (PS). These packing materials consist of pure hydro-
carbons and can thus be recycled.
In special cases, we use steel packing bands and wooden cases free of chemical
treatment.
2.2.2 Returning the Device
AViTEQ Vibrationstechnik GmbH takes back without charge controllers of type
SC(E)…-2 delivered in 2002 or later when delivered shipping paid to AViTEQ Vibra-

3 Function Description
3.1 Sizes
AVITEQ magnetic vibrators must be operated with the appropriate VIBTRONIC
controllers. Depending on the application and the size of the magnetic drive,
AViTEQ Vibrationstechnik GmbH delivers controllers of series SC(E)…-2 in sizes
"CN", "DN", "EN", or "ES" as either cabinet or panel mounting unit.
3.2 Principles of Operation and Oscillation
Rates
Oscillation Rates and Mains Frequency
Type SC(E)…-2 controllers are alternating voltage regulators and they operate on
the voltage regulation principle (phase regulation).
l Controllers for vibration conveyor devices with an oscillation rate of
1,500 min-1 (25 Hz) at a mains frequency of 50 Hz and
1,800 min-1 (30 Hz) at a mains frequency of 60 Hz
trigger every fourth mains half-wave.
l Controllers for vibration conveyor devices with an oscillation rate of
3,000 min-1 (50 Hz) at a mains frequency of 50 Hz and
3,600 min-1 (60 Hz) at a mains frequency of 60 Hz
trigger every second mains half-wave.
The mechanical vibration frequency (25, 30, 50 or 60 Hz) is set at the factory prior
to delivery and is encoded in the type designation.
This new generation of controllers was designed with the EMC directive
(89/336/EWG) in mind and meets the requirements of EN 50081-2 and
EN 50082-2.
Oscillation rates are given in "min-1" and the vibration frequency in "Hz".

3.3 Scope of Operation
3.3.1 Regulation Types
The VIBTRONIC Controllers of type SC(E)…-2 are designed for voltage regulation.
Mains voltage fluctuations over a wide range (  10%) have no noteworthy effect
on the working stroke and, therefore, no effect on the conveyor rate.
3.3.2 Command Value Preset
The command value for the working stroke can optionally be preset by means of
l a vibration-width adjuster (potentiometer) or
l an external control input (0 … 10 V DC, 4 … 20 mA or 0 … 20 mA)
The working stroke changes proportionally with the command value, i.e.: the
larger the command value, the larger the working stroke.
3.3.3 External Release
The controller can be switched by the electronic release and, therefore, activated
by means of, for example, a PLC (programmable logic controller). This external
release can be made by means of
l a potential free contact, or
l a voltage signal of +24 V DC, or
l an optical coupler.
If an external release is not planned, the appropriate terminals are short-circuited
with a plug-in bridge.
The terminal assignments for the individual connection options are explained in
chapter 4.2.
A plug-in bridge is mounted at the factory which absolutely must be removed in the
case of an external release. The controller may otherwise be destroyed!
