1 Safety and warning notes
This CIRUS-Temperaturregler is manufactured
according to DIN EN 61010-1. In the course of its
manufacture it passed through quality assurance,
whereby it was subjected to extensive inspections and
tests.
It left the factory in perfect condition.
The recommendations and warning notes contained in
these operating instructions must be complied with, in
order to guarantee safe operation.
The device can be operated within the limits indicated
in the "Technical Data" without impairing its operational
safety. Installation and maintenance may only be
performed by technically trained, skilled persons who
are familiar with the associated risks and warranty
provisions.
1.1 Use
CIRUS temperature controllers may only be used for
heating and temperature control of heatsealing
elements which are expressly suitable for them, and
providing the regulations, notes and warnings
contained in these instructions are complied with.
In case of non-compliance or use contrary to
the intended purpose, there is a risk that
safety will be impaired or that the heatsealing
element, electrical wiring, transformer etc. will
overheat. Ensuring such compliance is the
personal responsibility of the user.
1.2 Heating element
The temperature coefficient of a CIRUS-Temperatur-
regler is specially adapted to CIRUS heating elements.
The controller is not allowed to be operated
with any other heatsealing bands because
they could be overheated and damaged beyond
repair.
1.3 Impulse transformer
A suitable impulse transformer is necessary to ensure
that the control loop functions perfectly. This
transformer must be designed according to VDE 0570/
EN 61558 (isolating transformer with reinforced
insulation) and have a one section bobbin. When the
impulse transformer is installed, suitable shock
protection must be provided in accordance with the
national installation regulations for electrical
equipment. In addition, water, cleaning solutions and
conductive fluids must be prevented from seeping into
the transformer.
Incorrect installation of the impulse
transformer impairs electrical safety.
1.4 Current transformer PEX-W2/-W3
The current transformer supplied with the CIRUS-
Temperaturregler is an integral part of the control
system.
Only the original ROPEX PEX-W2 or PEX-W3
current transformer may be used. Other
transformers may cause the equipment to
malfunction.
The current transformer may only be operated if it is
connected to the CIRUS-Temperaturregler correctly
(see section 9, "Startup and operation"). The relevant
safety instructions contained in section 8.3, "Power
supply", must be obeyed. External monitoring modules
can be used in order to additionally increase operating
safety. They are not included in the scope of supply of
the standard control system and are described in a
separate document.
1.5 Line filter
The use of an original ROPEX line filter is mandatory in
order to comply with the standards and provisions
mentioned in section 1.6 "Standards / CE marking" on
page 4. This device must be installed and connected
according to the instructions contained in section 8.3,
"Power supply" as well as the separate documentation
enclosed with the line filter.
