 NOTICES
Used only to check and command a diesel engine. Maintains the charge of the start battery.
It has been designed on a wall.

Warning: Components carrying dangerous voltage levels

Only assigned and suitably trained personnel are allowed access to the panel. No maintenance operations
are permitted unless the plant is disconnected from the mains and the battery. As an additional safety
measure, the plant phases should be short-circuited and earthed.
Not withstanding the above, only assigned and trained personnel can perform the following
operations with the plant on:
- make a visual inspection of the control unit, the connections and their markings;
- measure the voltage and/or current values;
- programming of the functions.
These interventions, however, must be performed using equipment which ensures appropriate
levels of electrical protection.

Warning:
Adhere closely to the following advice
- When making connections always follow the instructions and the Wiring Diagram on pages 4-5.
- Any interventions on the unit must be performed with the motor stationary and terminal 50 of the
starting motor disconnected.
- Check that the consumption of the connected equipment are compatible with the described
technical characteristics.
- Install in such a way that there is always adequate heat disposal.
- Always install under other equipment which produces or spreads heat.
- Handle and connect without mechanically stressing the electronic board.
- Make sure that no copper conductor cuttings or other waste material fall inside the control panel.

THIS SWITCH-BOARD IS NOT SUITABLE FOR OPERATING IN THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:

- Where the environmental temperature is outside the limits indicated in the technical data.
- Where the air pressure and temperature variations are so rapid as to produce exceptional condensation.
- Where there are high levels of pollution caused by dust, smoke, vapour, salts and corrosive or
radioactive particles.
- Where there are high levels or heat from radiation caused by the sun, ovens or the like.
- Where attacks from mould or small animals are possible.
- Where there is the risk of fire or explosions.
- Where the control panel can receive strong vibrations or knocks.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
This control unit functions correctly only if inserted in plants which conform with the CE marking standards; it meets
the exemption requirements of the standard EN61326-1 but it cannot be excluded that malfunctions could occur in
extreme cases due to particular situations.
The installer has the task of checking that the disturbance levels are within the requirements of the standards.

CONDUCTION AND MAINTENANCE

The following maintenance operations should be performed every week:
- check that the indicators function;
- check the condition of the batteries;
- check that the conductors are tight, check the condition of the terminals.

UNLESS WE MAKE A WRITTEN DECLARATION STATING THE CONTRARY, THIS CONTROL UNIT IS
NOT SUITABLE FOR USE AS A CRITICAL COMPONENT IN EQUIPMENT OR PLANTS RESPONSIBLE
FOR KEEPING PERSONS OR OTHER LIVING BEINGS ALIVE.
