1 Safety Precautions
The R6000 controller is manufactured and tested in accordance with
safety regulations IEC 61010-1 / EN 61010-1 / VDE 0411 part 1.
If used for its intended purpose, safety of the user and of the device is
assured.
Check the specified nominal voltage at the front housing panel
before placing the instrument into service.
Make sure the connector cables are not damaged, and that
they are voltage-free while wiring the instrument.
If it can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible,
the device must be immediately removed from service (disconnect auxiliary voltage!). Safe operation can no longer be relied upon if the device demonstrates visible damage.
The device may not be placed back into operation until troubleshooting, repair and subsequent testing have been performed at our factory, or by one of our authorized service
centers.
Work on live open instruments may only be carried out by
trained personnel who are familiar with the dangers involved.
Capacitors inside the device may be dangerously charged,
even if it has been disconnected from all power sources.
Requirements set forth in VDE 0100 must be observed during the
performance of all work.
Safety clearances to neighboring electrical circuits with dangerous
voltages must be maintained during installation.

3 Mounting, Setup and Installation Instructions
The R6000 is a compact 8-channel temperature controller in a top-hat
rail mount housing. The controller is mounted by snapping it onto a
top-hat rail in accordance with DIN EN 50022.
During installation make sure to keep safe distances to adjoining electrical circuits involving hazardous voltages.
A sensor type must be selected for each channel with the DIP
switch at the left-hand side of the housing before mounting.
Unused inputs must be set to thermocouple.
The factory default setting is always thermocouple.

devices may not exceed 50° C.
Aggressive vapors shorten the service life of the controller.

4 Electrical Connection
Observe terminal assignments at the housing front panel!
The instrument is not equipped with an integrated circuit breaker. Therefore, during installation, care should be taken to ensure that
– the building where the instrument is installed includes a
circuit breaker,
– the circuit breaker is positioned in close proximity to the
instrument and is easily accessible to the operator
– it is clearly marked as a circuit breaking device for the
instrument.
Tighten screws with a manual screwdriver only!
Maximum tightening torque for all screw connections is
0.6 Nm.
Connectors: Terminal blocks for wires with cross-sections of up to
2.5 square mm, or two-core wire-end ferrules for cross-sections of up
to 2 x 1.0 square mm
EN 55022 requires the following warning as regards
electromagnetic compatibility:
Warning
This is a class A device. It may cause radio interference in residential environments.
If this is the case, the operator may be required to implement appropriate corrective measures.
Reliable wiring is accomplished with the help of screw and clamp-type
terminals which are separated according to function. Only terminal
blocks of like polarity or identical color may be plugged onto the
appropriate bases.
Mismatching of the terminal blocks may result in damage to the R6000
controller or interconnected components.
