Planners, system builders and operators are responsible for proper installation and operation in accordance with the inten-
ded use.
• Read the operating instructions completely and carefully.
• Operating instructions and applicable documents, such as electrical connection diagrams or operating instructions for
the motor, must be kept with the speed controller. They must always be available at the place of use.
• Local and national laws and regulations must be observed and complied with.
• Take into account the system-relevant conditions and requirements of the system manufacturer or system builder.
• Safety devices must not be dismantled, bypassed or rendered inoperative.
• The speed controller may only be used if it is in perfect condition.

5. Description
5.1. Speed controller type WPO 55
• The potentiometer is designed to control devices that require a control signal (e.g. EC motors with 10V input)
• The individual stages can be set individually on the circuit board by means of a screwdriver on the adjusting screws.
• The desired speed can be set in 5 stages by means of a rotary knob.
• It has a switch (dry contact) for remote ON/OFF switching of external devices.
• The potentiometer is suitable for surface mounting (IP55).

6. Installation
Note
This is not a ready-to-plug-in unit.
After installation as intended, this is a component in a system. The system as a whole must be installed in
accordance with the relevant regulations. The VDE and EVU regulations must be observed. If necessary, the
installer must coordinate the effect of this unit on the function of a ventilation and heating system with the system
planner and the system operator.
• The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes to the unit or documentation without prior notice, e.g. to im-
prove performance.
• The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by misuse, improper use, incorrect use or as a result of unauthori-
sed repairs/changes.
• Check the surface for load-bearing capacity before installation.
• Take all static and dynamic loads into account.
• Connect the unit only to permanently laid cables.
• Electrical connection only in accordance with the currently valid VDE and EN guidelines as well as TAB's (Technical
Connection Conditions) of the regional power supply companies
• The controller is to be screwed to a flat surface (wall etc.) using threaded screws.
• Open the controller housing by loosening the screws of the cover incl. grommets.
• Pull the cables through the grommets.
• The connection must be carried out according to the wiring diagram.
• Before closing the cover, position the internal cables correctly.
General safety instructions
• The installation may only be carried out by appropriately qualified persons, for details, see Table 1 Qualification.
• Take into account the system-relevant conditions and requirements of the system manufacturer or system builder.
• Safety devices must not be dismantled, bypassed or rendered inoperative.
• There is a risk of electric shock when installing a live controller.
Prerequisites
• Make sure that the speed controller and all its
components are undamaged.

• The electrical equipment must be checked regularly: Damaged wires and cables must be replaced immediately.
• Install the controller in ventilated places and away from heat sources, especially if the current load is near the maxi-
mum power.
• After removing the cover to fix it to the bracket, connect the cables to the terminal strip on the circuit board accor-
ding to the connection diagram.
• Then carefully close the cover again.

8. Connection diagram and function
8.1. Speed controller WPO 55 5-stage
Select output voltage via front knob:
Position 0 = 0 V
Position 1-5 = individual speeds
Jumper "LED" (J2)
With the jumper "LED" (J2) you can select whether the illumination of the LED is to be controlled via the
front knob or viah an external contact.
•Jumper J2 in position "INT": front knob in position "0", LED = OFF; front knob in position
"1-5", LED = ON.
•Jumper J2 on position "EXT": If the external contact with the terminals "LED" and "GND"
(terminal CN2) is closed, LED= ON. If the external contact is connected to the terminals
"LED" and "GND" (connector CN ") and is open, LED= OFF.
The LED can be controlled externally by a mechanical contact or also by an open collector
.
