INTRODUCTION
All information necessary for a correct assembly to ensure trouble free operation of the
cable reel are described in the present operating instructions. The warranty given by the
manufacturer is only valid if these operating instructions are observed and adhered to.
Terms and conditions are available upon request or at https://www.schill.de/AGB_en
Additional user manuals for other product variants can be found at
https://www.schill.de/en/downloads/ or received on request (see "CONTACT").
INSTALLATION / MAINTENANCE / REPAIR
The controller can be worked on only by such qualified persons who have been entrusted
with the tasks of the installation, maintenance or repair and are fully aware of the dangers
resulting from these works.
Special care should be given to complying with general safety and accident prevention and
fire protection related regulations.
Connection to the electricity network can only be carried out by an electrician (accordingly
DIN VDE 1000-10). When performing installation, repair and maintenance works, local
safety requirements as well as the stipulations of the applicable VDE (Electric, Electronic
and Information Technology Association) and EN standards as well as the DGUV in public
area must be complied with. The corresponding safety checks must be carried out and
recorded.
For the commissioning of a charging station may require a license from your network
operator!
The device can only be worked on in a voltage free state (disconnected from the mains).
GENERAL
The automatic cable rewinder with integrated charging electronics provides the simple
means for modern AC charging of electrically powered vehicles (EV). The rewinder is used
to charge electric vehicles according to IEC 62196. The product can be mounted rotatable
directly on a wall. It has a permanently connected charging cable with type 2 plug.
The cable is only pulled out when needed and in the required length. The remainder stays
neatly stored on the cable reel and is protected from contamination and damage. The
power connection is always accessible, but never in the way. The cable length can be
easily adapted to a changing parking situation. There is no cable chaos, no tripping hazard
anymore. If the charging connection is no longer needed, a short pull on the cable stopper
will suffice and the cable will roll up neatly. The automatic cable rewinder ensures safety
and order.
HANDLING
The coiled cable should be pulled out to the required length against the spring tension, but
please refrain from the use of undue force. The cable is coiled and fixed in position as
described under "LOCKING DEVICE". The cable should never be pushed in manually. If
the cable becomes entangled when winding it onto the reel, simply pull the cable out again
and then rewind.

Schill GmbH & Co. KG; Bruckstraße 44; 70734 Fellbach www.schill.de
Incorrect use caused by torsional stress together with simultaneous expansion of cable
should be avoided.
MAINTENANCE
The cable reel does not require any maintenance, The bearings are provided with grease
so that relubrication is not necessary.
Annually:
•Checking the residual current protection by pressing the test button on the DC guard.
• Checking the charging cable and the charging plug for mechanical defects.
• Checking the operation of the status LED.
ATTENTION
Defective or damaged components must be replaced immediately!
Only use original spare parts!
SPIRAL SPRING
The spiral spring is subject to natural wear and tear causing a fatigue fracture of the spring
steel. Based on experience, we recommend changing the spring after approx. 30.000
operations. The term “operations” defines not only a complete winding and unwinding of the
spring but also includes a partial movement of the spring.
In the event of spring breakage or spring fatigue, please contact us (see "CONTACT").
SPRING LOAD
The spring load is set at the factory. It may become necessary to adjust this setting. Before
doing so, the locking device should be engaged. Then remove the cable stopper and draw
the cable out of the roller guide. The load can be increased by additional windings of the
cable anti clockwise and decreased by unwinding the cable in clockwise direction (rewind).
Once this has been completed, it is very important that the cable is fed back through the
roller guide and secured with the cable stopper. Increasing the spring load reduces the
extractable cable length. A reduction of the spring load may affect the rewind function of
the reel.
ATTENTION
Do not release the cable when rewinding, the tension of the spring can accelerate
the winding speed to such a degree that the swinging cable end could cause injury.
Also damage to the cable and spring could be the result of such an action.

Schill GmbH & Co. KG; Bruckstraße 44; 70734 Fellbach www.schill.de
CABLE STOPPER
The length of the available cable can
be individually adjusted with the
provided cable stopper. The reliable
clamping adapts to various cable
diameters between 6 and 16 mm. For
a thicker cable, a larger version is
available. The stopper also serves as
a safeguard against a full unload of the
spring if the cable is unintentional
released. It should therefore never be
removed.
ROLLER GUIDE
Fitted with four rollers, the roller guide ensures that the cable is
correctly guided. It can be operated in a fixed or flexible mode.
The roller guide adjusts then to the direction of the pull. The guide
ensures that the cable is always guided onto the reel and
prevents it from sliding of the drum.
LOCKING DEVICE
As a standard feature the cable reel has a
disengageable cable locking device. The
latching mechanism ensures that the pulled-out
cable stays without traction fixed in place.
When the cable is being pulled out, the spring
detent passes over a series of grooves. An
audible click indicates that the locking device is
engaged. If you gently rewind the cable after
the clicking sound, you will notice that the
spring detent will engage into the notches,
locking the cable in position. The cable can be
disengaged by gently continuing to pull the
cable until the click can no longer be heard.
The loaded spring will pull the cable back onto the reel.
The locking device can be disengaged by pulling the knurled grip out by approx. 1cm and
turning it between 90°and180°. This will disengage the locking device the cable is then
constantly under tension.

ATTENTION
Do not release the cable when rewinding, the tension of the spring can accelerate
the winding speed to such a degree that the swinging cable end could cause injury.
Also damage to the cable and spring could be the result of such an action.
CONNECTING
Symmetrical operation: The mains connection must necessarily be 3-phase.
However, if the connected electric vehicle only charges in one or two phases, suitable
measures must be taken to ensure that the asymmetry that occurs does not exceed 4.6
kVA. For this purpose, the charging current setting (DIP1-5) must be limited to a maximum
of 20 A.
According to the desired charging current, the cable type, the cable lengths and the local
and standardized regulations, the connection cable and the associated protection must be
determined.
Each charging point must be designed with a separate fuse.
The circuit must be protected by a residual current circuit breaker (RCD) of type A with a
tripping current of 30 mA. (e.g.: ABB F204 A-40/0.03)
The residual current circuit breaker must be installed in the house distribution in front of the
supply line to the rewinder. Each charging point must be designed with a separate residual
current circuit breaker.
The charge controller in the vehicle can produce a DC fault current, which is not recognized
by the residual circuit breaker type A. To protect against these DC residual currents, the
rewinder has an integrated DC guard. This component detects these faults and, in the event
of a fault, triggers the residual current circuit breaker in the house distribution. Thus, no all-
current-sensitive circuit breaker (type B) is required!
ATTENTION
Some vehicles (e. g. Renault Zoe) generate such a high residual fault current during the
charging process that the RCD installed in the distribution triggers sporadically.
The following residual current circuit breakers are immune to these tips and have proven
themselves in practice:

To connect the reel to the mains/supply service a connection cable is mounted. As a
standard a plug-in connector is not included in the scope of supply.
Depending on the version, the reel can be delivered with
oa connection cable only (standard)
owith an on the reel mounted terminal block
ATTENTION
•Observe installation instructions
•According to DIN VDE 0100-722 (VDE 0100-722): 2013-01, a separate circuit must
be set up for each charging socket (IEC 60364-7-722: Low-voltage electrical
installations - Part 7-722: Requirements for special installations or locations -
supply of electric vehicle)
•Protection via residual current device (RCD) at least type A, which switches off
with AC or pulsating residual current with IΔn ≥ 30mA
EXTENSION CABLE
The included standard cables are designed to tolerate the weight of the pulled-out cable
including the cable stopper. Additional weights are not allowed. The mounted cables are
limited to the specified lengths. Never use excessive force to unwind the cable as this can
damage both the cable and the reel. Should the cable be blocked while coiling up, please
pull the cable out again and recoil. Attention should also be paid to section „GENERAL".
•The charging cable may only be disconnected by pulling on the plug (not on the cable).
•The charging cable must not be extended.
•Protect the plug from dirt and moisture.
•The cable must not be kinked, pinched or run over.
•The protective cap of the plug must be properly inserted on the plug after charging.
•After charging, the charging cable is to rewind (see “HANDLING”)
If the cable is damaged, please contact us (see "CONTACT").

PROTECTIVE DEVICES
Fuse:
The integrated charging electronic is fused with a 5x20 glass bulb fuse. This is located on
the charge controller (see also "CHARGE CONTROLLER") in the core of the reel. To
change the fuse, unscrew the cover from the reel. The glass bulb fuse on the charge
controller can then be replaced.
Temperature protection:
The series of these automatic cable reels with integrated charging electronics is
dimensioned in such a way that no excessive heat is generated when the cable is reeled
or unreeled. For protection in case of unusual heat development, a self-holding or self-
switching temperature switch is installed, depending on the version. In the event of
tripping, the charging of the electrically powered vehicle is interrupted. After a cooling
phase, the temperature switch switches itself on or is reactivated by pressing the red
temperature switch. Charging operation is resumed (see also "SIGNALING ELEMENTS").
Residual current protection
The DC guard integrated in the rewinder has a test button for
checking the residual current protection. By pressing, a 6 mA DC
residual current is generated. Then, the DC guard generates an AC
residual current which triggers the residual current circuit breaker in
the house distribution.
This functionality must be checked during the commissioning of the
device and later once a year.
