Danger due to electric current
•It is generally forbidden to carry out work on electrical live parts. Protection class of the device
when open is IP00! It is possible to touch hazardous voltages directly!
•The safe isolation from the supply must be checked using a two-pole voltage detector.
•Even after disconnecting the mains voltage, life-threatening charges can appear between the
protective ground “PE” and the mains connection.
•The protective earth is conducting high discharge currents (dependent on the switching fre-
quency, current-source voltage and motor capacity). Earthing in compliance with EN specifica-
tions shall therefore be observed even for testing and trial conditions (EN 50 178, Art. 5.2.11).
Without earthing, dangerous voltages can be present on the motor housing.
Waiting period at least 3 minutes!
Through use of capacitors, danger of death exists even after switching off the device through directly
touching the energized parts or due to parts that have become energized due to faults.
It is only permitted to remove the housing cover after waiting for 3 minutes once the line supply cable
has been shut down. Should measurement or adjustment work be unavoidable on the opened unit
while still powered, then this may only be performed by qualified personnel acquainted with the
thereby associated hazards.
Attention!
Automatically restart after a power failure or mains disconnection!

3 Product overview
3.1 Operational area
Icontrol is the type-line of Ziehl-Abegg frequency inverter for controlling one motor with for frequency
innverter suitable isolation system and bearings.
We expressly point out that controlling Ziehl-Abegg fans in parallel operation is not possible in
this series without endangering the motors.
For trouble free operation of several motors we recommend using our Fcontrol series frequency
converters with integrated sinusoidal filter.
3.2 Functional description
The frequency inverters of these series generate their 3~ output with variable voltage and frequency
from the three-phase mains on the input.
The devices are constructed in accordance with the general requirement in DIN EN 61800-2 for
Adjustable speed electrical power systems and is intended for one-quadrantdrives.
Suitable only for drives with square load torque (e.g. fans and pumps).

4 Mounting
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!
•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 (
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 (
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!

•Depending on the housing model cut off necessary cable inlets respectively to the cable
diameter. Or alternative use cable inlet for cable glands. Metal sheet housings are supplied with
stoppers. Any cable ducts openings not used must be sealed!
•Care must be taken to avoid direct radiation from the sun!
•The device is designed for vertical installation (cable inlet down). A horizontal or reclined
installation is only permissible after technical release of the manufacturer!
•Be sure to observe proper heat dissipation (
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 (
Technical data). I.e., a correspondingly larger clearance
or thermal shielding is required.
4.3 Outdoor installation
Outdoor installation is possible up to -20 °C when the controller supply is not switched off. Installation
must be protected from the effects of weather as much as possible, including protection from direct
sunlight!
4.4 Installation location for agriculture
In order to avoid damage caused by ammoniac vapours, the controller shall not be installed in the
stable, but rather in an outhouse wherever possible.
4.5 Temperature influences during commissioning
Avoid condensation in the controller and functional faults attributable to condensation by storing the
controller at room temperature!
