PLZ2004WBSafety Precautions V
Overvoltage Category
For the safe use of equipment, IEC60664 (Insulation coordination for equipment
within low-voltage systems) classifies circuits into four categories by an occurrence
level of transient voltage. When you connect equipment to a power line or connect a
measuring instrument to these places, make sure of the applied overvoltage category. This instrument is designed to operate from the overvoltage category II.
Overvoltage category I
Equipment of overvoltage category I is equipment for connection to circuits in
which measures are taken to limit transient overvoltages to an appropriately low
level.
Examples are protected electronic circuits.
Overvoltage category II
Equipment of overvoltage category II is energy-consuming equipment to be supplied from the fixed installation.
Examples of such equipment are appliances, portable tools and other household and
similar loads.
If such equipment is subjected to special requirements with regard to reliability and
availability, overvoltage category III applies.
Overvoltage category III
Equipment of overvoltage category III is equipment in fixed installations and for
cases where the reliability and the availability of the equipment is subject to special
requirements.
Examples of such equipment are switches in the fixed installation and equipment for
industrial use with permanent connection to the fixed installation.
Overvoltage category IV
Equipment of overvoltage IV is for use at the origin of the installation.
Example of such equipment are electricity meters and primary overcurrent protection equipment.

About This Manual
This operation manual describes the PLZ2004WB Load Booster.
The PLZ2004WB is used in combination with the PLZ1004W Electronic Load.
This manual mainly covers the handling precautions of the PLZ2004WB and the
connection to the PLZ1004W. For the operating procedure as a electronic load, see
the PLZ1004W Operation Manual.
Product Overview
The PLZ2004WB Load Booster is used to increase the input current to the
PLZ1004W Electronic Load. One PLZ1004W is made the master unit, and load
boosters connected in parallel operate as slave units.
Features
Options
•Up to four load boosters can be connected in parallel with a PLZ1004W master
unit, configuring a electronic load that produces up to 9 kW and 1 800 A.
•The master unit displays the total current and total wattage. The units connected
in parallel can be used as a single electronic load.
•The connection of the control cables is easy. The control cable used to connect
between the master unit and the load booster and between each load booster is
one flat cable each.
•There is no power switch. The AC input power is turned ON/OFF by the master
unit.
Control flat cables
Control cable used to connect between the master unit and the load booster and
between load boosters. The following two types of cables are available.
ModelCodeLengthApplication
PC01-PLZ-4W84540300 mm Connect between load boosters

2.2Precautions Concerning Installation
Location
This section describes the precautions to be taken when installing the unit. Make
sure to observe them.
■ Do not use the unit in a flammable atmosphere.
To prevent the possibility of explosion or fire, do not use the unit near alcohol, thinner or other combustible materials, or in an atmosphere containing such vapors.
■ Avoid locations where the unit is exposed to high temperature
or direct sunlight.
Do not place the unit near a heater or in areas subject to drastic temperature
changes.
Operating temperature range: 0 °C to 40 °C
Storage temperature range:-25 °C to +70 °C
■ Avoid humid environments.
Do not place the unit in high-humidity locations--near a boiler, humidifier, or water
supply.
Operating humidity range:20 % to 85 % RH (no condensation)
Storage humidity range:0 % to 90 % RH (no condensation)
Condensation may occur even within the operating humidity range. In such case, do
not use the unit until the condensation dries up completely.
■ Do not place the unit in a corrosive atmosphere.
Do not install the unit in a corrosive atmosphere or in environments containing sulfuric acid mist, etc. This may cause corrosion of various conductors and bad contacts of connectors inside the unit leading to malfunction and failure, or in the worst
case, a fire.
However, operation in such environments may be possible through alteration. If you
wish to use the unit in such environments, consult Kikusui distributor/agent.
■ Do not place the unit in a dusty location.
Accumulation of dust can lead to electric shock or fire.
■ Do not use the unit where ventilation is poor.
The unit employs a forced air cooling system. Air is taken in from intake ports
located on panels other than the rear panel and exhausted from the ports on the rear
panel. Secure adequate space around the unit to prevent the possibility of fire caused
by accumulation of heat.
■ Do not place the unit on an inclined surface or location subject to vibrations.
The unit may fall or tip over causing damages and injuries.
2-2 Installation and PreparationPLZ2004WB
■ Do not use the unit in a location subject to strong magnetic or
electric fields.
The unit may malfunction and cause electric shock or fire.
■ Do not use the unit near highly sensitive measuring instru-
ments or transceivers.
The noise generated by the unit may affect them
■ Do not stack more than two units on top of each other.
The units (load booster and master unit) can be stacked, but do not stack more than
two units on top of each other for safety reasons.
If you are using multiple load boosters, it is recommended that they be mounted on
a rack.

2.3Precautions When Moving the Unit
When moving the unit to the installation location or when transporting the unit, note
the following points.
■ Remove all wiring.
Moving the unit with the cables connected can cause wires to break or injuries due
to the unit falling over.
■ Have two or more people move the unit.
The unit weighs over 20 kg. Have two or more people move the unit. Use extra precaution at inclines and steps.
■ When transporting the unit, be sure to use the original pack-
ing materials.
Otherwise, damage may result from vibrations or from the unit falling during transportation.

2.5Grounding
WARNING
CAUTION
• Electric shock may occur, if proper grounding is not furnished.
• This product is designed as a Class I equipment (equipment furnished
with electric shock protection through protective grounding in addition to
the basic insulation). Be sure to connect the protective ground terminal to
an appropriate earth ground.
• If you do not ground the product, malfunction may occur due to external
noise, or the noise generated by the product may become large.
Make sure to ground the load booster for your safety.

2.
Remove the dust filter from the inside of
the louver and clean it.
Remove the dust on the dust filter such as
by using a vacuum cleaner. If the filter is
extremely dirty, clean it using a waterdiluted neutral detergent and dry it completely.

CAUTION
Fig. 4-2Dust filter
• When the PLZ2004WB is in operation, air is sucked through the dust filter
to cool the load booster. If moister is included in the dust filter, the temperature or humidity inside the PLZ2004WB increases and may cause a malfunction.
Attach the dust filter to the louver.
3.
Attach it so that the tab on the louver fits into the cut on the dust filter.
4.
Attach the louver to the panel by pulling up on the louver while holding the
2nd level of the louver with your hand
until the pin is fixed in place.

4.2Inspection
Power cord
Check that the insulation coating is not broken and that the crimp terminal is not
loose.
WARNING
•Possible electric shock. May lead to death or injury. Be sure to unplug the
power cord plug.
• Breaks in the insulation coating may cause electric shock. If a break is
found, stop using it immediately.
To purchase accessories, contact Kikusui distributor/agent.
4.3Calibration
The PLZ2004WB is shipped from the factory after carrying out a strict calibration.
However, to maintain the performance, periodic calibration is recommended.
Calibration can be performed in the same fashion as the calibration of the master
unit alone by viewing the load device connected in parallel (master unit and load
boosters) as a single load device. For details, see section 8.2, “Calibration” in the
PLZ1004W Operation Manual.
Use shunt resistors and regulated DC power supplies of appropriate current capacity
in the calibration.
