4.1 General notes
Attention!
The following points must be complied with during the mechanical installation to avoid causing a defect
in the device due to assembly errors or environmental influences:
•Before installation remove the device from the packing and check for any possible shipping
damage! Start-up is not allowed in the case of transport damage!
•At a weight greater than 25 kg for men / 10 kg for women, the fan should be lifted out by two
persons (according to REFA). The values may differ from country to country.
•Wear safety shoes and gloves for handling!
•Assemble the device on a clean and stable base. Do not distort during assembly! Use the
appropriate mounting devices for proper installation of the unit!
•A mounting on vibrating base is not permissible, if no data to the vibration strength is made (see
Technical data)!
•When mounted onto lightweight walls, there must be no impermissibly high vibrations or shock
loads. Any banging shut of doors that are integrated into these lightweight walls, can result in
extremely high shock loads. Therefore, we advise you to decouple the devices from the wall.
•Do not allow drilling chips, screws and other foreign bodies to reach the device interior!
•Maintain the stated minimum clearances to ensure unobstructed cooling- air feed as well as
unobstructed outgoing air discharge, see minimum space requirement)!
•The device should be installed in a location where it will not be disturbed, but at the same time can
be easily accessed!
•Care must be taken to avoid direct radiation from the sun!
•The device is designed for vertical installation (bottom cable inlet). A horizontal or reclined installa-
tion is only permissible after technical release of the manufacturer!
•Be sure to observe proper heat dissipation, see Technical data, heat dissipation).

4.2 Minimum space requirement
In order to ensure sufficient ventilation of the device, clearance on all sides of at least 50 mm has to
be maintained to the housing walls, switch cabinet doors, wiring ducts, etc. The same clearance
applies to the installation of several devices next to each other.
When installing several devices on top of each other, the danger of reciprocal heating exists. This
layout is only then permissible when the air suctioned from the upper unit does not become warmer
than the permissible ambient temperature, see Technical data. I.e., a correspondingly larger clearance
or thermal shielding is required.
4.3 Fastening the device
The type of fastening and the number of fastening points are dependent on the housing design. All the
fastening points available must be used for safe fastening.
Proceed as follows:
Type FSDM2.5M

Avoid condensation in the controller and functional faults attributable to condensation by storing the
controller at room temperature!
5 Electrical installation
5.1 Safety precautions
Danger due to electric current
•Work on electric components may only be carried out by trained electricians or by persons
instructed in electricity under the supervision of an electrician in accordance with electrical
engineering regulations.
•The 5 electrical safety rules must be observed!
•It is forbidden to carry out work on electrically live parts. Even after disconnection, the dc-link is still
live. Always wait at least 3 minutes.
•Cover neighbouring electrical equipment during installation work.
•Other measures may be necessary to achieve safe electrical isolation.
•A second person must always be present when working on energized parts or lines who
disconnects in case of emergency.
•Electrical equipment must be checked regularly: Loose connections are to be re-tightened and
damaged cables must be replaced immediately.
•Always keep switch cabinets and all electrical supply facilities locked. Access is only allowed for
authorized persons using a key or special tool.
•Operating the device with the housing cover removed is prohibited because energized, exposed
parts are present inside the device. Disregarding this regulation can lead to severe personal injury.
•For metal cable inlets the necessary protective earth connection to the bottom of the housing is
made by screws. The device may only be started up when these screws are fitted properly.
•The required protective earth connection is established using screws between the housing parts in
metal terminal space covers and housing casings. Commissioning is only permissible after these
screws have been properly attached!
•Metal screwed-connections are not permitted in plastic housing parts because there is no potential
equalization.
•The device owner is responsible for the EMC of the entire plant according to the locally applicable
standards.
•Never clean electrical equipment with water or similar liquids.

5.3 EMC-compatible installation
5.3.1 Motor cable
The applicable standard for interference emissions is EN IEC 61000-6-3. Compliance with this stand-
ard is achieved through the use of an unscreened motor feed cable.
5.3.2 Control cables
Pay attention to sufficient distance from powerlines and motor wires to prevent interferences. The
control cable may not be longer than 30 m. Screened control cables must be used when the cable
length is longer than 20 m. When using a shielded cable connect the shielding to one side only, i.e.
only to the control unit with the protective ground (keep cable short and with as little inductance as
possible!).
5.3.3 Harmonics current for devices ≤ 16 A
According to EN 61000-3-2 these devices are to be classified as “professional” devices.
Connection to a low voltage supply (public networks) is allowed insofar as this has been clarified with
the respective energy supply company responsible.
5.3.4 Harmonics current and line impedance for devices > 16 A and ≤ 75 A
Extract from EN 61000-3-12, valid for equipments with rated current > 16 A and ≤ 75 A, connected to

5.4 Mains connection
5.4.1 Mains voltage
Power from the mains is connected to terminals: PE, L1, L2, L3 and N (depending on type). Here, it
must be strictly observed that the mains voltage lies within the allowable tolerance specifications (
Technical data and nameplate affixed to the side).
The neutral conductor connection “N” is only available for the device types with 22 A/25 A rated
current for the reduction of the leakage current. It is irrelevant for the device’s functionality, for those
supply networks without neutral conductors the connection is not required. Because however, higher
leakage currents can flow through the “PE” conductor connection, undesirable erroneous activation
may occur on systems equipped with RCD circuit breakers.
Danger due to electric current
Not suitable for IT system!
Do not operate on Grounded Delta System!
5.4.2 Required quality attributes for the mains voltage
Danger due to electric current
The mains voltage must comply with the EN 50160 quality characteristics and the defined standard
voltages in IEC 60038!
Operating Instructions Fcontrol Basic – model series FSDM2.5..50M Electrical installation
L-BAL-E162-GB 2022/02 Index 008 Part.-No.

5.4.3 Line protection fuse
The connection must be fused depending on the used cable, the type of routing, the operating
conditions and according to the standards applicable on site. The specification for the maximum
admissible line fuse of the device must be observed (see technical data).
Possible components for the line protection (recommendation):
•Safety fuses of operating class “gG” (whole range fuse cartridges for general applications according
to EN 60269-1).
•Line protection switch with characteristic “C” (according to EN 60898-1).
5.4.4 Leakage current, securely attached, protective earth conductor
Danger due to electric current
The maximum leakage current depends on the type of device and the connected mains voltage (see
Technical Data). With regard to fixed connection and the type of PE conductor connection, the
specification for the leakage current must be observed under consideration of the locally valid
standards (for Europe see EN 50178 Section 5.2.11 or 5.3.2.1 etc.).
Minimum cross-section for PE conductor for fixed connection 1.5 mm

!
5.5 Residual-current-operated protective device
Danger due to electric current
For an installation of r.c.d. protection, it shall be observed that this must be of “universal-current
sensitivity” (Type B). In accordance with EN 50 178, Section. 5.2. other types of current-operated
protective devices may not be used. To ensure as high a degree of reliability as possible , we
recommend a tripping current of 300 mA.
Residual current circuit breaker (type B)
5.6 Inverter output
5.6.1 Motor connection
The motor leads are connected to the terminals: PE, U, V, W. Several fans can be connected to the
controller-the maximum total current of all motors must not exceed the current rating for the controller.
Information
•It is recommended that a separate motor protection unit be foreseen for each fan.
•For motors with thermistors “TP” (PTC thermistor) e.g. type U-EK230E
•For motors with thermostats “TB” (thermal contacts) e. g. type STDT16 or AWE-SK (
Enclosure:
Connection suggestion for several motors with motor protection unit type STDT.)
5.6.2 Disconnection between controller and motor (repair switch)
Ideally, a repair switch should be installed before the controller (supply line disconnect).
In the case of complete disconnection (entire load) after the controller, the enable (controller OFF /
ON) must be disconnected simultaneously. I.e., an additional control contact is needed. Switching on
the motor while simultaneously issuing the enable (ON) achieves secure energizing with low
saturation of the controller.
Attention!
When switching on the motor plus existing release: under certain circumstances, this can occur under
full modulation of the controller.

5.7 Motor protection
Motor protection is possible by connecting thermostats “TB” (thermal contacts) or thermistors “TP”
(PTC).
The jumper “J1” in the connection space must be plugged according to the used thermal protectors.
Motor with thermistors “TP”
For motor with thermistors “TP” the jumper “J1” must be plugged at the top.
A maximum of six individual thermistors (DIN 44081 or DIN 44082) may be connected in series to
a single device.

When a connected thermostat or thermistor responds (interruption between the two terminals
“TB/TP”) the device switches off and does not switch back on.
Relais “K1” is de-energized, terminals “13” - “14” interrupted. The internal signal lamp flashes in code
| 15 | ( Diagnostics / faults).
Possibilities for re-starting after the drive has cooled down (terminals “TB/TP” bridged) by:
•By switching the mains voltage off and then on again.
•Via a digital input for remote control (ON/OFF enable).
Danger due to electric current
An outside voltage may never be connected to the terminals “TB/TP” and/or!
