2.2 Use in accordance with the requirements
The measurement device type NivuCont Plus is capable of processing
4-20 mA input signals. Additionally, it is possible to supply up to two 2 or 3-wire
sensors with a defined voltage. Here the allowed maximum values, as specified
in chapter 2.3 must be strictly kept. All cases which vary from these conditions
and are not passed by NIVUS GmbH in writing are left at owner’s risk.
The device is exclusively intended to be used for purposes as described
above.
Modifying or using the devices for other purposes without the written consent
of the manufacturer will not be considered as use in accordance with the re-
quirements. Damages resulting from this are left at user’s risk.
The device is designed for a lifetime of approx. 10 years. After that period an
inspection in addition with a general overhaul has to be made.
Ex-Protection
The Ex-version of the NivuCont Plus is for power supply of intrinsically safe sen-
sors in areas with explosive atmospheres (zone 0/1).
The transmitter always has to be installed outside of Ex-zones!

tains the following:
- Name and address of manufacturer
- CE label
- Type and serial number
- Year of manufacture
- Ex-label (on Ex-version devices only) as mentioned in chapter 2.2
It is important for enquiries and replacement part orders to specify article num-
ber as well as serial number of the respective transmitter or sensor. This en-
sures correct and quick processing.
This instruction manual is a part of the device and must be available for the
user at any time.
The safety instructions contained within must be followed.
It is strictly prohibited to disable safety measures or to change the way
they work!
3.3 Installation of Spare Parts and Parts subject to Wear and Tear
We herewith particularly emphasize that replacement parts or accessories,
which are not supplied by us, are not certified by us, too. Hence, the installation
and/or the use of such products may possibly be detrimental to the device’s abil-
ity to work.
Damages caused by using non-original parts and non-original accessories are
left at user’s risk.
3.4 Turn-off procedure
For maintenance, cleaning and repairs (authorised staff personnel only) the
device shall be disconnected from mains and shall be prevented from being
turned on again unintentionally.

3.5 User’s Responsibilities
In the EEA (European Economic Area) national implementation of the frame-
work directive 89/391/EEC and corresponding individual directives, in particu-
lar the directive 89/655/EEC concerning the minimum safety and health re-
quirements for the use of work equipment by workers at work, as amended,
are to be observed and adhered to.
In Germany the Industrial Safety Ordinance must be observed.
The customer must (where necessary) obtain any local operating permits re-
quired and observe the provisions contained therein.
In addition to this, he must observe local laws and regulations on
- personnel safety (accident prevention regulations)
- safety of work materials and tools (safety equipment and maintenance)
- disposal of products (laws on wastes)
- disposal of materials (laws on wastes)
- cleaning (cleansing agents and disposal)
- environmental protection
Connections :
Before operating the device the user has to ensure, that the local regulations
(e.g. for electric supply) on installation and initial start-up are taken into account,
if this is both carried out by the user.

4 Functional Principle
4.1 General
The NivuCont Plus is a multifunctional process measurement transmitter capa-
ble to supply several 2 or 3-wire sensors. Computer options as well as links be-
tween the inputs concerning comparison, average value, total, linearization, cal-
culation of exponential functions and volume are possible. Various switching
functions such as limit value, in bounds, out of bounds, trend, timer as well as
pump management and pump control are available.
4.2 Unit Versions
The transmitters primarily vary in terms of power supply, Ex-protection and en-
closure construction. The current type of device is indicated by the article num-
ber, which can be found on a weatherproof label on the bottom of the enclosure
or the 19“ unit.
From this article key the type of device can be specified.

6 Installation
6.1 General
For electric installation the local regulations in the respective countries
(e.g. VDE 0100 in Germany) must be referred to.
The NivuCont Plus power supply must be separately protected by a 6 A slow-
blow fuse and has to be isolated from other facility parts (separate turn-off,
e.g. by using an automatic cut-out with >B< characteristics).
Before feeding the rated voltage the transmitter and sensor installation must be
correctly completed. The installation should be carried out by qualified personnel
only. Further statutory standards, regulations and technical rulings have to be
taken into account.
All outer circuits, wires and lines connected to the device must have a minimum
isolation resistance of 250 V. If the voltage exceeds 42 V DC an isolation resis-
tance with 500 kOhm min. will be required.
The cross-sectional dimension of the power supply wires must be 0.75 mm2
(0.03 in2) and must be in accordance to IEC 227 or IEC 245. To observe the de-
gree of device protection please refer to chapter 2.3.
The maximum allowed switching voltage on the relay contacts must not exceed
250 V. According to Ex protection it must be checked if the devices power sup-
plies must be integrated into the facility’s emergency shutdown conception.
6.2 Transmitter Dimensions, Installation and Connection
6.2.1 General
The transmitter mounting place has to be selected according to certain criteria.
Please strictly avoid:
- direct sunlight (use weatherproof cover if necessary)
- heat emitting objects (max. ambient temperature: +40 °C (104 °F))
- objects with strong electromagnetic fields (e.g. frequency converters, electric
motors with high power consumption or similar)
- corrosive chemicals or gas
- mechanical shocks
- installation close to footpaths or travel ways
- vibrations
- radioactive radiation
The panel mount enclosure is fastened by using the 4 clamp screws which are
integrated in the enclosure sides.
The rack unit is installed in a standard rotating or fixed frame by using 4 machine
screws size M6 or M8 in suitable length with the necessary nuts and shims.

The clear view door of the measurement transmitter is provided with a protection
foil for protection during transport and from scratches during assembly. This pro-
tection foil has to be removed immediately after the assembly.
If the view door protection foil has been exposed to direct solar radiation for a
long period, it cannot be removed easily.
Cleaning of the front foil can be undertaken with spirit or if necessary with
car polish. If this is not successful, a new front door can be ordered from
NIVUS GmbH or your local representative.
6.2.2 Enclosure Dimensions
The transmitter is available in 2 different enclosures -
on-site enclosure (wall/DIN rail mounting) or 19“-unit.

6.2.3 Transmitter Installation
General
Please note during installation that electronic components may be destroyed
caused by electrostatic bursts. Due to this reason avoid high electrostatic charge
by providing proper ground connection.
Please note the following points when selecting the measurement place:
- The installation surface must be free of vibrations.
- The ambient temperature must be between -20 ºC and +40 ºC
(-4 °F and +104 °F)
- Keep away from power lines or frequency converters
(approx. 100 m (300 ft.)).
Panel Mount Installation:
Panel mount enclosures are to be installed by fastening the tube in the prepared
cut-out.
The most simple way to install a wall mount enclosure is to fasten a DIN rail with
a length of 210 mm (8.3 in.) and then to snap-on the enclosure.
It is possible to install the enclosure by using 3 screws as well. Use a pan head
screw with a head diameter of 5.5 ... 8.0 mm (0.22 ... 0.32 in.) for this. This
screw must be screwed into the mounting plate protruding 4 mm (0.16 in.). Then
hang the enclosure on the screw and additionally fix it with 2 more screws from
the terminal clamp housing. Please observe to screw them at least 40 mm into
the wall or 50 mm into appropriate dowels (to be set).
Before the first connection it is necessary to have a slight pressure on the
screw of the clamping connection to ensure safe opening and a correct
connection.
