The built-in device according to IP 40 has to be mounted in a housing or a switchboard panel. Take care
of adequate cooling (separate ventilation, for instance). The environment temperature must not ex-
ceed the value of 50°C. The device is to be mounted on a vertical plane, avoiding that the ventilating
pipes of the cooling element are not placed vertical. The device has to be mounted in a dry room.
Further conditions to the operating area:
Ÿ
protection from dust and moisture
Ÿ
protection from aggressive atmosphere
Ÿ
free from vibrations
No other devices should be placed closer than 50 to 100mm
to the device, in order to provide adequate cooling.
The housing design according to IP 54 (Option)
can be mounted in places which are not protected from dust and humidity.
Wiring the device:
The mains connections (L1, L2, L3) have to be connected by using a disconnecting switch and usual
fuses.
The connection for mains cable and the connections for controlling have to be laid in channels and
protector tubes.
The electric installation always has to comply with the essential protection requirements of the Euro-
pean Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and Electromagnetic compatibility Directive 2014/30/EU.

EMC-equitable assembly
According to EMC standards thyristor controllers are regarded as components, which do not fulfil any
intended use by themselves. The devices constitute a functional unit of the entire plant. The control
electronics of the thyristor controllers are implemented according to valid EMC standards.
The builder of the plant has to supply the plant with appropriate mains chokes and mains filters. These
components can also be obtained from us. Thyristor controllers with multicycle control usually do not
require any additional mains filter circuit.
It should be noted that the standards of the resource category A are not sufficient in a special industrial
sector, for example if sensitive measuring channels are affected. In this case, the user has to apply
equipment of class B.
The class A is the usual class of equipments, which is normally intended for the use in the industrial sec-
tor. The devices are connected to the industrial network via an assigned transformer. Power controllers
of class B are required if they should be used in the area of industry and small-scale industry and if they
should be connected to the public low-voltage system.
Use of mains chokes:
On the input side of the thyristor controllers, mains chokes reduce the current-dependent line reactions
and effect an improvement of the performance factor. This reduces the current harmonics and impro-
ves the mains quality. The use of mains chokes is particularly recommended when connecting thyristor
controllers with phase angle control to a grid-feeding point and when other electronic devices are
attached to this network.
