Power Controller – PCW / PCWE
INSTRUCTION MANUAL – V1.0x F
PRESENTATION
The NOVUS power controller is a type of electronic equipment with
functions to control and limit the electric power delivered to a generic
electric load. These functions are executed with modern techniques,
in order to provide significant gains for the process, all with durability,
precision, efficiency and economy.
It also executes the important function of protecting the connected
load and the system as a whole, since it has ultra-fast fuses included
in all its versions.
There are two types of controller models: PCW and PCWE. The
PCWE model has a feature that limits the electric power delivered to
the load (Load Limit), the only difference between the two models.

INSTALLATION
The controller is made to be attached vertically, for instance, in the
rear of a control panel. It needs an open area for an appropriate air
circulation and the environment should meet the typical requirements
for electronic equipment.
