Safe operation of the device is only guaranteed if the Operating Instructions have been read and the
safety instructions they contain have been observed.
1.1 Designated use
The batch controller is a batching and dosing manager for the batching of any media or mineral oils.
– The manufacturer cannot take responsibility for any damage caused by misuse of the device. It is
not permitted to make any changes or reconstruction to the device.
– The device may be operated in built-in state only.
1.2 Installation, commissioning and operation
The batch controller is safely manufactured using state-of-the-art technology and complies with the
respective regulations and EU Directives. The device could be dangerous if it is incorrectly installed
or used.
Installation, wiring and maintenance of the device must be carried out only by trained, skilled per-
sonnel authorized to perform such work and instructed by the facility's owner-operator. The skilled
personnel must have read and understood these Operating Instructions and it is mandatory for them
to follow the instructions they contain. The operator must ensure that the measuring system is cor-
rectly wired in accordance with the wiring diagrams. When the housing cover is removed, the shock

3.3 Installation
The device with field housing and accessories, →ä44, is suitable for wall mount, pipe mounting,
panel mounting and top-hat rail installation.
The orientation is only determined by the legibility of the display. Connections and outputs are fed
out of the bottom of the device. The pipes are connected via coded clamps.
Operating temperature range:
-20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F)
"Caution!
To prevent heat build-up, do not expose the device to extreme heat or strong direct sunshine.
Operating the device in the upper temperature limit range decreases the operating life of the display.

4.1 Connection requirements
#Warning!
Note that the entire electrical connection must be carried out only while the device is de-energized.
"Caution!
• Before commissioning, ensure that the supply voltage corresponds to the specification on the
nameplate.
• Provide a suitable switch or power-circuit breaker in the building installation. This switch must
be installed close to the device (so that it is easily accessible) and marked as a circuit breaker.
• An overload protection unit (rated current = 10 A) is required for the power cable.

compensates for measurement inaccuracies caused by the mounting location of the sensors or the
line length of the connecting cables.

4.5 Communication
!Note!
The USB interface is always active and can be used independently of other interfaces. Parallel oper-
ation of multiple optional interfaces, e.g. fieldbus and Ethernet, is not possible.
4.5.1 Ethernet TCP/IP (optional)
The Ethernet interface is galvanically isolated (testing voltage: 500 V). A standard patch cable (e.g.
CAT5E) can be used to connect the Ethernet interface. A special cable gland is available for this pur-
pose which allows users to guide pre-terminated cables through the housing. Via the Ethernet inter-
face, the device can be connected using a hub or a switch or directly to office equipment.
• Standard: 10/100 Base-T/TX (IEEE 802.3)
• Socket: RJ-45
• Max. line length: 100 m

4.5.2 Modbus TCP (optional)
The Modbus TCP interface is used to connect the device to higher-order systems to transmit all
measured values and process values. The Modbus TCP interface is physically identical to the Eth-
ernet interface (→ä19). Connection →å19.
