5.1 Inspection of the unit
Upon receipt of the equipment it is advisable to remove the product from the packaging and check for any damage
caused by transport. If damage is found, inform the carrier responsible for the transport and your dealer. Keep the
packing carton in case the product has to be sent back to the factory for repairs.
5.2 Connection
Caution!!! The correct connection and commissioning of an automatic power factor correction device is relatively
simple, but must not in any way be entrusted to the case. As a result, the unit will not switch the capacitor banks on
or off or it will function abnormally. Since the panels are all tested and tested on site, any operating anomalies will
be due to incorrect connection and, in particular, to the incorrect positioning of the current transformer. Please
therefore follow the instructions in this manual to be followed strictly in the sequence indicated.
Thanks for your collaboration
Place the panel in a ventilated position away from sources of heat: good air circulation is one of the most important
characteristics for a correct and lasting operation. Leave a minimum space of 40 cm around the panel, so that the
air can penetrate and exit freely. Do not place the equipment in humid and dusty places unless it has been
requested with a particular degree of protection.
To assure the short-circuit withstand, it is necessary to install a three-phase fuse current regulators of the NH-aM
type, or other devices with similar characteristics, upstream of the power factor correction boards,
both with fixed current and breaking capacity higher than the supposed short-circuit current.
When Icc is not known at the installation point, the short-circuit current at the transformer secondary can be roughly taken.

To connect an automatic PFC panel to the network, it is necessary to have a C.T. (current
transformer) having a secondary rated current of 5 or 1 A not supplied with the product but charged
to the customer.
The primary rated current of the C.T. must be chosen according to the rated current of the line
regardless of the power of the power factor correction bearing in mind that the measuring range of the
regulator current ranges from 8% to 110% of the current of the C.T. therefore, this condition must be met.
Eg: there is a circulating current of 200 / A. A T.A. will have to be chosen. whose current ranges from: 2500 A (8%
of 2500 = 200 / A) and 180A (110% of 180 A = 200 / A). It is a good rule to install a C.T. with a double primary
current that is actually circulating, therefore, in the case of the example, a C.T. will be selected. with
primary current of 400 A.
To connect the equipment to the network some simple operations are necessary that must be absolutely respected.
The sequence of the main operations necessary for this purpose can be summarized as follows:
1. Ground the secondary of C.T ..
2. Supply the equipment with cables of adequate cross-section according to the rated power.
3. Power supply: three-phase + Pe (unless otherwise requested)
4. Anchor the power cables to the main switch according to the phase sequence.
If you want to switch off the panel during operation, make sure, before opening the main switch, that you have
disconnected all the batteries, following the instructions (see MAN mode)
• The C.T. must be positioned on the phase (R - L1), upstream of the loads and the line that feeds the power
factor correction panel.

p. 15 / 43
• The phase sequence (R (L1) - S (L2) -T (L3)) must be respected when connecting the line to the power factor
correction panel.
• This condition can be easily checked with the aid of a voltmeter: by measuring, between the phase where the C.T.
(the R) and the phase anchored on the R terminal of the automatic power factor correction switch, the voltage
must be "0".
•The positioning of the C.T. It is essential for the correct functioning of the appliance. The relative diagram
is shown in the figure alongside
The following are some possible positions of the C.T.
wrong:
Position 2: despite being the C.T. installed upstream, and
installed on phase L3 (T) instead of L1 (R)
Position 3: the C.T is installed on the load line!
Position 4: the C.T. it is installed on the phases that feed
the pfc!

p. 16 / 43
The insertion of an automatic power factor correction device in the presence of MV transformers. If there are
batteries of capacitors of the fixed type, on the transformers, the C.T. necessary for the control of the automatic
rephasing device to be placed downstream of the fixed capacitors.
The figure shows the connection of a power factor correction equipment in the presence of MV connected
transformers in parallel
NOTE. It is necessary to use a C.T. adder with 2 or 3 inputs depending on whether there are 2 or 3
transformers, to which the cables coming from the C.T .. must be connected. The output of the C.T. adder must
be connected to the automatic rephasing.
Set the C.T. (the ways to set this parameter are described in Appendix B) as the sum of the two or three C.T
6 ADJUSTMENTS
6.1 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE PCRL5/7 POWER FACTOR REGULATOR

Modi operativi
Esistono tre possibili modi operativi, elencati di seguito:
Modo TEST
 Quando l’apparecchio é nuovo di fabbrica e non è mai stato
programmato, entra automaticamente nel modo TEST che consente
all’installatore di attivare manualmente le singole uscite a relè, in modo
da poter verificare la correttezza del cablaggio del quadro.
 Il modo TEST è evidenziato dalla presenza di tre trattini --- sul display
principale.
 L’attivazione e la disattivazione delle uscite avviene direttamente
premendo i tasti ▲e ▼, ma senza considerare il tempo di
riconnessione.
 La modalità TEST viene abbandonata automaticamente dopo aver
effettuato la programmazione dei parametri (vedere capitolo
Impostazione dei parametri).
Operating modes
There are three possible operating modes, listed below:
TEST Mode
 When the unit is brand new and has never been programmed, it
automatically enters in TEST mode that allows the installer to
manually activate the individual relay outputs, so you can verify the
correct wiring of the panel.
 The TEST mode is indicated by three dashes --- shown on the main
display.
 The activation and deactivation of the outputs is done directly by
pushing ▲and ▼buttons, but without considering the reconnection
time.
 The TEST mode is automatically left after the parameter programming
is done (see Parameter setting chapter).
Modi MAN e AUT
 Le icone AUT e MAN indicano la modalità di funzionamento automatica
o manuale.
 Per la modalità manuale, premere il tasto MAN per 1 s consecutivo.
 Per la modalità automatica, premere il tasto AUT per 1 s consecutivo.
 La modalità di funzionamento rimane memorizzata anche in assenza
della tensione di alimentazione.
Modo MAN
 Quando l’apparecchio é in modalità manuale, é possibile selezionare
uno degli step ed inserirlo o disinserirlo manualmente.
 Oltre alla apposita icona, il display alfanumerico visualizza MAN per
evidenziare la modalità manuale. Premendo MODE è possibile scorrere
le altre misure come di consueto.
 Mentre il display alfanumerico à posizionato su MAN, è possibile
attivare/disattivare manualmente gli step. Per selezionare uno step
utilizzare i tasti ▲o ▼. Lo step selezionato lampeggia velocemente.
 Premere MODE per inserire o disinserire lo step selezionato.
 Se lo step selezionato non ha ancora esaurito il tempo di riconnessione,
l’icona MAN lampeggerà ad indicare che l’operazione é stata accettata
e che verrà eseguita non appena possibile.
 La configurazione manuale degli step viene mantenuta anche in
assenza della tensione di alimentazione. Quando l’apparecchio viene
rialimentato, lo stato originario dei gradini viene ripristinato.

MAN and AUT Modes
 The icons AUT and MAN indicate the operating mode automatic or
manual.
 For manual mode, press the MAN button for 1 sec in a row.
 For automatic mode, press the AUT button for 1 sec in a row.
 The operating mode remains stored even after removing and
reapplying the power supply voltage.
MAN Mode
 When the unit is in manual mode, you can select one of the steps and
manually connected or disconnect it.
 In addition to the specific icon, the alphanumeric display shows MAN
in order to highlight the manual mode condition. Press MODE to view
the other measurements as usual.
 While the display shows MAN, it is possible to select the step to be
switched on or off. To select a step, use the ▲ or ▼buttons. The
selected step will flash quickly.
 Press MODE to activate or deactivate the selected step.
 If the selected step has not yet exhausted the reconnection time, the
MAN icon will flash to indicate that the transaction has been accepted
and will be conducted as soon as possible.
 Manual configuration of the steps is maintained even when the power
supply voltage is removed. When the power returns, the original state
of the steps is restored.
