1.4 Warnings and safety

Safety during installation and operation

When you install and operate the equipment, you may have to 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, as this could lead to

injury or death.

Disable the breakers

DANGER!

Disable the breakers

Unintended breaker closing can cause deadly and/or dangerous situations.

Disconnect or disable the breakers BEFORE you connect the controller power supply. Do not enable the

breakers until AFTER the wiring and controller operation are thoroughly tested.

Installation instructions 4189341348B EN Page 5 of 53

Disable the engine start

DANGER!

Unintended engine starts

Unintended engine starts can cause deadly and/or dangerous situations.

Disconnect, disable or block the engine start (the crank and the run coil) BEFORE you connect the controller

power supply. Do not enable the engine start until AFTER the wiring and controller operation are thoroughly

tested.

Electrostatic discharge

Protect the equipment terminals from electrostatic discharge when not installed in a grounded rack. Electrostatic discharge

can damage the terminals.

Controller power supply

The controller must have a reliable power supply and a backup power supply. The switchboard design must ensure

sufficient protection of the system, 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.

Connect the controller protective earth

DANGER!

Failure to ground

Failure to ground the controller (or extension rack) could lead to injury or death.

You must ground the controller (or extension rack) to a protective earth.

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.

Automatic and remote-controlled starts

CAUTION

Automatic genset start

The power management system automatically starts gensets when more power is needed. It can be difficult for

an inexperienced operator to predict which gensets will start. In addition, gensets can be started remotely (for

example, via an Ethernet connection, or a digital input).

To avoid personal injury, the genset design, the layout, and maintenance procedures must take this into account.

Installation instructions 4189341348B EN Page 6 of 53

1.5 Legal information

Third party equipment

DEIF takes no responsibility for the installation or operation of any third party equipment, including the genset.

Warranty

NOTICE

Warranty

The controller is not to be opened by unauthorised personnel. If opened the warranty will be lost.

2.3 Location

2.3.1 Front mount controller or display

The front mount unit is designed to be mounted in a panel, with its back in an enclosure.

For UL/cUL listing, it must be:

• Mounted on a flat surface of a type 1 enclosure.

• Installed in accordance with the NEC  or the CEC 

The equipment must be installed and operated in a clean and dry environment, as specified in the Data sheet.

If the equipment is installed in an area subject to constant high vibrations, the equipment must be isolated from the

vibrations. The installation environment must comply with the electrical, mechanical and environmental specifications of the

equipment as described in the Data sheet.

Ventilation requirements and spacing

The back of the unit is not protected against dust. Dust accumulation may damage the unit or lead to overheating. We

recommend mounting the unit in a cabinet with a filter on the air supply.

For proper ventilation, the unit must be mounted with its back vertical, and its long axis horizontal. The writing on the unit

must be horizontal.

NOTE The display brightness may be affected if there is not enough ventilation.

The cable routing must not block the ventilation holes.

4.1.3 Typical wiring

Typical wiring drawings are provided for each controller type.

Installation instructions 4189341348B EN Page 15 of 53

Each controller type is delivered with the inputs and outputs pre-configured according to a default configuration.

More information

See Typical wiring for the wiring for each controller type.

Custom configurations

You can connect the inputs and outputs to other terminals than specified in the default configuration. We recommend that

you keep a record of where the system deviates from the default configuration.

In addition to the default wiring, the designer may specify inputs and outputs, according to the specific system's

requirements. These may use the available configurable connections in the basic controller type's hardware, and/or the

connections from additional installed modules. These connections are not included in the default wiring drawings, but must

be shown on the designer's drawings for the system.

You can mount and use additional hardware modules for additional inputs and outputs. The details of these connections are

specific to the installation, and must be included in the system designer's drawings.
