Certification
Canadian Radio Interference-Causing Equipment Regulation, IECS-003, Class A:
Supporting test records reside with the manufacturer.
This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing
Equipment Regulations.
FCC Part 15, Class "A" Limits
Supporting test records reside with the manufacturer. The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions:
1. The equipment may not cause harmful interference.
2. The equipment must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at their expense. The following techniques can be used to reduce
interference problems:
1. Disconnect the equipment from its power source to verify that it is or is not the source of the
interference.
2. If the equipment is connected to the same outlet as the device experiencing interference, connect
the equipment to a different outlet.
3. Move the equipment away from the device receiving the interference.
4. Reposition the receiving antenna for the device receiving the interference.
5. Try combinations of the above.
Product overview
The controller displays sensor measurements and other data, can transmit analog and digital signals,
and can interact with and control other devices through outputs and relays. Outputs, relays, sensors
and sensor modules are configured and calibrated through the user interface on the front of the
controller.

Sensors and sensor modules
The controller accepts up to a maximum of two sensor modules along with one communication
module. A variety of sensors can be wired to the sensor modules. Sensor wiring information is given
in the specific sensor manuals and in the user instructions for specific modules.
Relays, outputs and signals
The controller has four configurable relay switches and two analog outputs. An optional analog
output module can increase the number of analog outputs to five.
Device scans
With two exceptions, the controller automatically scans for connected devices without user input
when it is powered on. The first exception is when the controller is powered on for the first time
before initial use. The second exception is after the controller configuration settings have been set to
their default values and the controller is powered on. In both cases, the controller first displays the
language, date and time edit screens. After the language, date and time entries are accepted, the
controller performs a device scan.
Controller enclosure
The controller enclosure is NEMA 4X/IP66-rated and has a corrosion-resistant finish designed to
withstand corrosive environmental constituents such as salt spray and hydrogen sulfide. Protection
against environmental damage is strongly recommended for outdoor use.
Note: Units that have the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certification are intended for indoor use only and do not
have a NEMA 4X/IP66 rating.
Controller mounting options
6
English
The controller can be mounted to a panel, to a wall or to a vertical or horizontal pipe. A neoprene
sealing gasket is included and can be used to reduce vibration. The gasket can be used as a
template for panel mounting before the inner gasket component is separated.

Personal injury hazard. Only qualified personnel should conduct the tasks described in this section of the manual.
The controller can be installed on a surface, panel or pipe (horizontal or vertical). For mounting
options and instructions, refer to Figure 2, Figure 3 on page 8, Figure 4 on page 9, Figure 5
on page 10 and Figure 6 on page 11.
For horizontal pipe mounts, the mounting feet (Figure 2) must be attached to the mounting bracket in
a vertical position.
For both horizontal and vertical pipe mounts, attach the mounting bracket to the controller as shown
in Figure 5 on page 10.

High-voltage barrier
High-voltage wiring for the controller is located behind the high-voltage barrier in the controller
enclosure. The barrier must remain in place except when installing modules or when a qualified
installation technician is wiring for power, alarms, outputs or relays. Do not remove the barrier while
power is applied to the controller.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) considerations
N O T I C E
Potential Instrument Damage. Delicate internal electronic components can be damaged by static electricity,
resulting in degraded performance or eventual failure.
English 11
Refer to the steps in this procedure to prevent ESD damage to the instrument:
• Touch an earth-grounded metal surface such as the chassis of an instrument, a metal conduit or
pipe to discharge static electricity from the body.
• Avoid excessive movement. Transport static-sensitive components in anti-static containers or
packages.
• Wear a wrist strap connected by a wire to earth ground.
• Work in a static-safe area with anti-static floor pads and work bench pads.
Wiring overview

Wiring for power
W A R N I N G
Potential Electrocution Hazard. Always disconnect power to the instrument when making electrical connections.
Potential Electrocution Hazard. If this equipment is used outdoors or in potentially wet locations, a Ground Fault
Interrupt device must be used for connecting the equipment to its mains power source.

D A N G E R
Electrocution Hazard. Do not connect AC power to a 24 VDC powered model.
Potential Electrocution Hazard. A protective earth (PE) ground connection is required for both 100-240 VAC and
24 VDC wiring applications. Failure to connect a good PE ground connection can result in shock hazards and
poor performance due to electromagnetic interferences. ALWAYS connect a good PE ground to the controller
terminal.
Install the device in a location and position that gives easy access to the disconnect device and its operation.
W A R N I N G
N O T I C E
The controller can be purchased as either a 100-240 VAC powered model or a 24 VDC powered
model. Follow the appropriate wiring instructions for the purchased model.
The controller can be wired for line power by hard-wiring in conduit or wiring to a power cord.
Regardless of the wire used, the connections are made at the same terminals. A local disconnect
designed to meet local electrical code is required and must be identified for all types of installation. In
hard-wired applications, the power and safety ground service drops for the instrument must be 18 to
12 AWG.
Notes:
• The voltage barrier must be removed before making any electrical connections. After making all
connections, replace the voltage barrier before closing the controller cover.
• A sealing type cable gland and a power cord less than 3 meters (10 feet) in length with three 18gauge conductors (including a safety ground wire) can be used to maintain the NEMA
4X/IP66 environmental rating.
• Controllers can be ordered with AC power cords pre-installed. Additional power cords may also be
ordered.
• The DC power source that supplies power to the 24 VDC powered controller must maintain
voltage regulation within the specified 24 VDC-15% +20% voltage limits. The DC power source
must also provide adequate protection against surges and line transients.
Wiring procedure
Follow the numbered steps and Table 1 or Table 2 to wire the controller for power. Insert each wire
into the appropriate terminal until the insulation is seated against the connector with no bare wire
exposed. Tug gently after insertion to make a secure connection. Seal any unused openings in the
controller box with conduit opening sealing plugs.
