1.2 Warnings and safety
1.2.1 Safety during installation and operation
Installing and operating the equipment may require work with dangerous currents and voltages. The installation must only be carried
out by authorised personnel who understand the risks involved in working with electrical equipment.
DANGER!
Hazardous live currents and voltages. Do not touch any terminals, especially the AC measurement inputs and the relay
terminals. Touching the terminals could lead to injury or death.
1.2.2 Controller power supply
The controller must have a reliable power supply, which must include a backup power supply. In addition, the switchboard design
must ensure that the system is sufficiently protected if the controller power supply fails.
If the controller has no power supply, it is OFF and does
not
provide any protection. The controller cannot enforce any trips,
shutdowns or latches when it is off. The controller does
not
provide any control or power management. All the controller relays de-
energise.
1.2.3 Connect the controller protective earth
You must ground the controller rack to create a protective earth.
DANGER!
Failure to ground the controller rack could lead to injury or death.
1.2.4 Switchboard control
Under
Switchboard control
, the operator controls and operates the equipment from the switchboard. When
Switchboard control
is
activated:
•
The controller trips the breaker and/or shuts down the engine, if an alarm situation arises that requires a trip and/or shutdown.
•
The controller
does not
respond to a blackout.
•
The controller
does not
provide any power management.
•
The controller
does not
accept operator commands.
•
The controller cannot and
does not
prevent any manual operator actions.
The switchboard design must therefore ensure that the system is sufficiently protected when the controller is under
Switchboard
control
.
1.2.5 Factory settings
The controller is delivered pre-programmed from the factory with a set of default settings. These settings are based on typical values
and may not be correct for your system. You must therefore check all parameters before using the controller.
