8. INSTALLATION

8.2. IMPORTANT

According to the chapters of norm IEC 60364:

1:

 Install protector against overvoltage on the power supply.

2:

 Sensor cables and signal cables of the computer may be joined, but not in the same 

electric conduit through which the electric input and the activation of the loads run.

3:

 Install transient suppresors (RC filters) parallel to the loads as to increase the product 

life of the relays.

8.1 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Note: 

The length of the sensor cable can be increased by the user up to 200 meters using PP 2 x 24 

AWG cable.
The sensor with metal tip must be installed in the solar collector, it supports a temperature of 200 º C.

6.4 UNIT SELECTION

To define the temperature unit with which the instrument is going to operate you should 
access the 

[Code]

 function (see article 6.1 to find out how to access this function), insert 

the 

231 code

 and press the 

SET

 key. The user may select the unit by pressing the keys    

.    or     , where the messages

 [,=C,]

 or 

[,=F,]

 are alternated. Press the 

SET

 key 

to  confirm  the  desired  unit.  Next  the  message

[----]

will  be  displayed  and  the or 

{

}

icons corresponding to the unit will be turned on.

Obs.: 

While changing the unit, the controller carries the factory values in its parameters, 

[,FAC]

, being necessary to perform their setting.

8.3 SUPERIMPOSED INSTALLATION

A qualified technician must perform

the installation of the device.

DO

DON’Ts

The controller MUST be installed:

    

- indoors, in a dry environment; 
- away from electromagnetic fields;
- in a ventilated place, free from flammable 
  liquids and gases;
- protected by a circuit breaker of appropriate 
  specification for the installed load.

The controller MUST NOT be 
installed:

    

- in wet places;
- exposed to sunlight or rain;
- in saunas, machine rooms or 
  bathrooms.

s

Failure to not comply the warnings will cause loss of warranty, equipment and / or

physical damage.

Turn off the network 

before removing 

the protection cover.

Suppressor

A2

A1 and A2 are the 
contactor coils.

Load

Suppressor

For direct activation the maximum
specified current should be taken
into consideration.

Suppressors on offer from Full Gauge Controls

Push the bottom openings 
necessary for the passage of 
cables;

Attach the controller to the wall using the 
screws and plugs provided;

Make the electrical 
connections of the controller;

For a better finish 
install X system type 
channels to run 
cables;

Place the protective cover of 
the electrical connections 
and secure it with the screw 
(included in package).

The top screw must not be screwed 
completely,  for  engaging  the 
controller. After fitting the controller 
on the top screw, secure it with the 
lower screw; 

Remove the protective 
cover of the 
connections at the 
bottom of the controller;

[,F16]

- Hysteresis of the support temperature (T3) (parameter 

[TEMP]

):

Temperature difference to turn on support. Through this function you may define a temperature interval 
inside which the support outlet will remain turned off.

For example: if set

[temp]

=

[,45.0]

and

[,F10]

 =

[,,1.0]

, the support outlet will be turned off 

when the sensor T3 temperature reaches 45.0ºC, and will only turn back on when it falls below 44.0ºC 
(45.0-1.0=44.0).

[,F17]

 - Minimum value allowed for setting the support temperature:

[,F18]

- Maximum value permitted for configure the support temperature:

These parameters serve as lower and higher limits of parameter settings 

[TEMP]

 (Support heating 

temperature). They are used to block the temperature settings, in order to restrain an inadequate 
setting, for example, a high value may maintain the support outlet turned on for a long time, causing 
elevated energy consumption.

NOTE:

 When the T3 sensor in 

[,F24]

 is deactivated, the temperature of the support is now 

referenced by sensor T2.

[,F19]

- Time of manual support activation:

Used when the user wishes to occasionally activate the support outlet out of the expected time in the 
event schedule. From the manual activation, after the time programmed in this parameter has passed, 
the  support  mode  returns  to AUT  mode  (automatic).  To  disable  this  function  from  dislocating  the 
settings for the minimum until it is displayed 

[,,No]

.

[,F20]

 - Operation mode of the support event schedule:

Defines the operation mode for the event schedule:

[,1b1]

- Weekly Programming - in this mode the instrument can set up to 4 different 

events for each day of the week.

[,2t6]

- Programming for week days - in this mode the instrument maintains the same 

events  for  week  days  (Monday  to  Friday)  and  allows  programming  different  events  for 
Saturday and Sunday.

[,1t7]

- Daily Programming - in this mode the instrument maintains the same events for 

every day of the week.

NOTE:

 Upon altering the event schedule mode the controller loads the events with the factory values.

[,F21] 

- Support outlet associated to the antifreeze T1:

When enabled, it has the purpose to assure minimum temperature in the thermal reservoir, for when it is 
necessary to perform the antifreeze function (

[,F04]

). The support outlet is activated whenever the 

(T3) support temperature is lower than the 

[,F04]

 setting (antifreeze temperature) + 20.0°C (fixed). 

The hysteresis of this control is fixed and defined at 2.0° C.

For example, if set 

[,F04]

=

[,,8.0]

, the support outlet will turn on when the temperature (T3) is 

lower than 28.0°C and will turn off when higher than 30.0° C.

NOTE

:

 This function turns on the independent support outlet of the support mode or the event schedule.

[,F22]

 - Displacement of T1 sensor indication (Offset):

[,F23]

 - Displacement of T2 sensor indication (Offset):

[,F24]

 - Displacement of T3 sensor indication (Offset):

It  allows  compensating  eventual  deviations  in  T1  sensor  reading  (collector),  T2  (reservoir)  or  T3 
(support), originating from the sensor change or from cable length alteration.

NOTE:

 Sensor T3 may be disabled by adjusting this function to the Minimum value 

[,Off]

. After 

sensor T3 is disabled, the backup system will be controlled by sensor T2 (tank/swimming pool).

[,F25]

- Time for function block:

Defines the time that the      key to block/unblock the parameter alterations should be held down. For 
further explanations, see article 5.8 – Function Block. 
To disable this function move the setting to the minimum until it is displayed 

[,,No]

.

[,F26]

- Display backlight Intensity (Backlight):

If the value adjusted in this function is the minimum 

[,ECO]

, the intensity of the backlight of the display 

will decrease to the minimum value (1) if no key is pressed for 5 seconds, If any key is pressed, the 
intensity will increase to (8).
