• e MicroMax1500 is part of a range of control units adapted, with the necessary
additional functions, for optimum control of rotary heat exchangers.
e series consists of ve sizes, MicroMax, MicroMax180, MicroMax370,
MicroMax750 and MicroMax1500. All of the control units drive three-phase
induction motors with associated gearing, the control unit designation denotes
motor output.
All control units have an input signal of 0-10 V.
• MicroMax1500 is designed for wheels up to 8000 mm with a wheel speed of
max 12 rpm.
If a faster wheel speed is necessary, rotor diameter should be reduced.
• Heat exchanger rpm and thus thermal eciency are governed by the control unit
so that wheel speed is proportional to the input signal from the control centre.
• MicroMax1500 has a customisable threshold of 0-2 V.
• MicroMax1500 has adjustable boost function.
• MicroMax1500 has a rotation monitor (magnet mounted on the wheel with
associated magnetic sensor) and built-in cleaning function.
e functions can be disconnected via DIP switches.
• MicroMax1500 starts automatically following voltage
drop-out and resets all alarms on restart.
• e motor should not be disconnected from the control unit while under load.

TECHNICAL DATA
FUNCTIONS
6

DIP SWITCH
Cleaning function Cleaning function set to ON position.
When the wheel has stopped for 30 minutes, the cleaning function is
activated and the wheel rotates at minimum rpm for 10 seconds.
Rotation monitor Rotation monitor set to ON position.
High speed*) e wheel rotates at the set maximum rpm when the switch is set to ON.
Aer a test run, make sure the DIP switch is set to OFF.
Low speed*) e wheel rotates at the xed minimum rpm when the switch is set to
ON.
Aer a test run, make sure the DIP switch is set to OFF.
*) Manual operation (test mode)
OPERATIONAL INDICATIONS
On/alarm ON is lit continuously.
Flashes when the control unit has tripped.
Run Comes on when the motor is to rotate, i.e. when the input signal exceeds
the threshold value.
Rotation Flashes when the magnet passes the magnetic sensor, regardless of the
“Rotation monitor” DIP switch setting.
Flashes even if the input signal is lower than the threshold value.

Rotation monitor
Probable fault cause on
installation
Probable fault cause in
operation
Alarms and trips unless a pulse is received every 5 minutes.
- Magnet facing the wrong way
- Magnetic sensor incorrectly connected (wrong polarity),
see “Connections” on page 10
- Too wide a gap between the magnetic sensor and magnet, max 15 mm
-Broken belt
- Belt slipping
- Stuck wheel
- Magnetic sensor or magnet not intact
Overtemperature motor
Probable fault cause
Alarms and trips if motor winding temperature is too high.
e thermal contact in the motor reverts to normal mode when the
temperature drops.
See "Overcurrent" on page 9.
Overvoltage Alarms and trips if the connection voltage exceeds 276 V
for more than 4-5 seconds.
Undervoltage Alarms and trips if the connection voltage falls below 195 V
for more than 4-5 seconds.
Short circuit/overcurrent
Probable fault cause
Alarms and trips in the event of a phase-to-phase or phase-to-earth
short circuit and overcurrent.
Short circuit phase-phase orphase-earth (earth fault)
MicroMax1500 trips immediately.
- Motor winding fault
Measure motor resistance, it should be identical on all phases.
- Short circuit between phases in the cable
- Earth fault in motor or cable
ALARMS
All alarms remain in state.

Continued from previous page
Probable fault cause
Overcurrent
MicroMax1500 limits current at 10 A and trips then aer 4-5 s.
- e motor is too small in relation to wheel diameter
- Wheel rotation sluggish
- Damaged motor, e.g. bearing fault
Measure current.
NOTE! Precise voltages and amperages can only be obtained with a
moving-iron instrument.

SETTINGS VIA POTENTIOMETER
Boost Torque boost at low rpm.
May be increased if necessary, but motor temperature will increase.
Factory setting at 9 o’clock.
reshold value e control unit will start when the input signal exceeds the threshold
value, adjustable between 0-2 V.
Factory setting, min.
Max rpm Potentiometer for adjusting maximum rpm.
Adjust between 40-100 Hz.
Factory setting, min.
PUSH BUTTON
Reset Reset button for resetting the control unit.
e control unit also resets in the event of voltage drop-out.
In both cases, all alarms reset.
Automatic restart takes place aer a voltage drop-out.

CONNECTIONS
Switch o power before starting work on the equipment.
Recommended tightening torque on terminals 0.5 Nm, max tightening torque 0.8 Nm.
Connection voltage
(L-N-PE)
1x230-240 V +/-10 %, 50 Hz.
NOTE! Protective earth must always be connected.
To achieve EMC Class C3, the supplied ferrite has to be installed on the
incoming earth wire. e earth wire has to be approximately 15 cm longer
than the other wires and shall be wrapped around the ferrite three times
before being connected to the terminal.
Motor
(U-V-W)
ree-phase induction motor wired for 3x230 V (Delta).
Max 1500 W.
Direction of rotation is changed by switching two of the phases.
ermal contact
(T-T)
e thermal contact in the motor should be used to protect the motor
from overheating.
Must be jumped if the temperature switch is not connected.
Alarm relay
(13-14-15)
Closes between 14-15 in the event of an alarm or voltage drop-out.
Max 2 A resistive load / 250 V AC.

PUTTING THE EQUIPMENT INTO OPERATION
Should be done in sequence.
Check that the motor rotates in the right direction in relation to the wheel's direction
of rotation. In the event of a fault, switch two phases to the motor.
Adjustment of
maximum rpm
Set the “High Speed” DIP switch to the ON position.
Adjust "Max. rpm" so that the wheel rotates at 10-12 rpm
(or as per directions from wheel manufacturer).
Aer a test run, set the DIP switch to OFF.
Checking
minimum rpm
Set the “Low Speed” DIP switch to ON.
Check that the wheel starts.
e minimum rpm is preset.
Aer a test run, set the DIP switch to OFF.
Checking the
cleaning function
Switch o the voltage.
Make sure the “Cleaning function” DIP switch is set to ON and the input
signal is disconnected. When power is switched on, the wheel will rotate
at minimum rpm for 10 seconds.
Checking the
rotation monitor
e yellow “Rotation” LED will ash when the magnet passes the
magnetic sensor, regardless of DIP switch position.
Finish by having the control unit drive the wheel at maximum and minimum
rpm and checking that the wheel speed is correct.
