4.2 Function description of the voltage regulation
The TAPCON® serves to keep constant the output voltage of a transformer
with an on-load tap-changer.
The TAPCON® compares the transformer's measured voltage (U
defined reference voltage (U
). The difference between U
desired
actual
) with a
actual
and U
desired
is the control deviation (dU).
The TAPCON® parameters can be optimally adjusted to the line voltage response to achieve a balanced control response with a small number of tapchange operations.
The following diagram shows an overview of voltage regulation.

5 Packaging, transport and storage
5 Packaging, transport and storage
5.1 Packaging
5.1.1 Purpose
The packaging is designed to protect the packaged goods during transport,
loading and unloading as well as periods of storage in such a way that no
(detrimental) changes occur. The packaging must protect the goods against
permitted transport stresses such as vibration, knocks and moisture (rain,
snow, condensation).
The packaging also prevents the packaged goods from moving impermissibly within the packaging. The packaged goods must be prepared for shipment before actually being packed so that the goods can be transported
safely, economically and in accordance with regulations.
5.1.2 Suitability, structure and production
The goods are packaged in a sturdy cardboard box. This ensures that the
shipment is secure when in the intended transportation position and that
none of its parts touch the loading surface of the means of transport or touch
the ground after unloading.
The box is designed for a maximum load of 10kg.
Inlays inside the box stabilize the goods, preventing impermissible changes
of position, and protect them from vibration.
5.1.3 Markings
The packaging bears a signature with instructions for safe transport and correct storage. The following symbols apply to the shipment of non-hazardous
goods. Adherence to these symbols is mandatory.
Protect against
moisture

5.2 Transportation, receipt and handling of shipments
In addition to oscillation stress, jolts must also be expected during transportation. In order to prevent possible damage, avoid dropping, tipping,
knocking over and colliding with the product.
Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 201924 2117246/05 ENTAPCON®230 basic
5 Packaging, transport and storage
If a crate tips over, falls from a certain height (e.g. when slings tear) or is
subject to an unbroken fall, damage must be expected regardless of the
weight.
Every delivered shipment must be checked for the following by the recipient
before acceptance (acknowledgment of receipt):
▪ Completeness based on the delivery slip
▪ External damage of any type
The checks must take place after unloading when the crate or transport container can be accessed from all sides.
Visible damage If external transport damage is detected on receipt of the shipment, proceed
as follows:
▪ Immediately record the transport damage found in the shipping docu-
ments and have this countersigned by the carrier.
▪ In the event of severe damage, total loss or high damage costs, immedi-
ately notify the sales department at Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen and the
relevant insurance company.
▪ After identifying damage, do not modify the condition of the shipment fur-
ther and retain the packaging material until an inspection decision has
been made by the transport company or the insurance company.
▪ Record the details of the damage immediately onsite together with the
carrier involved. This is essential for any claim for damages!
▪ If possible, photograph damage to packaging and packaged goods. This
also applies to signs of corrosion on the packaged goods due to moisture
inside the packaging (rain, snow, condensation).
▪ Be absolutely sure to also check the sealed packaging.
Hidden damage When damages are not determined until unpacking after receipt of the ship-
ment (hidden damage), proceed as follows:
▪ Make the party responsible for the damage liable as soon as possible by
telephone and in writing, and prepare a damage report.
▪ Observe the time periods applicable to such actions in the respective
country. Inquire about these in good time.
With hidden damage, it is very hard to make the transportation company (or
other responsible party) liable. Any insurance claims for such damages can
only be successful if relevant provisions are expressly included in the insurance terms and conditions.

5 Packaging, transport and storage
5.3 Storage of shipments
When selecting and setting up the storage location, ensure the following:
▪ Protect stored goods against moisture (flooding, water from melting snow
and ice), dirt, pests such as rats, mice, termites and so on, and against
unauthorized access.
▪ Store the crates on timber beams and planks as a protection against ris-
ing damp and for better ventilation.
▪ Ensure sufficient carrying capacity of the ground.
▪ Keep entrance paths free.
▪ Check stored goods at regular intervals. Also take appropriate action after
storms, heavy rain or snow and so on.

DANGER
WARNING
NOTICE
Electric shock!
Risk of fatal injury due to electrical voltage. Always observe the following
safety regulations when working in or on electrical equipment.
► Disconnect the equipment.
► Lock the equipment to prevent an unintentional restart.
► Make sure all poles are de-energized.
► Ground and short-circuit.
► Cover or cordon off adjacent energized parts.
Electric shock!
Dangerous high voltages may occur when a current transformer is operated
with an open secondary circuit. This can lead to death, injuries and property
damage.
► Never operate a current transformer with an open secondary circuit;
short-circuit the current transformer to prevent this.
► Observe the information in the current transformer operating instructions.
Damage to the device!
Electrostatic discharge may cause damage to the device.
► Take precautionary measures to prevent the build-up of electrostatic
charges on work surfaces and personnel.
6.1 Preparation
The following tools are needed for mounting:
▪ Provided 3mm Allen key (included in delivery)
▪ Small screwdriver for connecting the signal lines and supply lines
Other tools may be needed depending on installation location.
6.2 Mounting device
You can mount the device in the following installation versions:
▪ Flush panel mounting
▪ Wall mounting

6 Mounting
▪ Wall mounting with mounting brackets
▪ Rail mounting (optional)
Preparing for mounting
Before commencing mounting, the two mounting brackets back on the rear
of the device must be removed and the cable gland plate taken off. To do so,
proceed as follows:
1. Loosen the 4 Allen screws with attached Allen key to remove the mount-
ing brackets.
Figure13: Loosen mounting bracket
2. Loosen the 4 Allen screws with attached Allen key to remove the cable
gland plate.
Figure14: Loosen cable gland plate
ð The mounting brackets and the cable gland plate are removed.
The relevant installation versions are described in the following sections.

6.2.1 Flush panel mounting
For flush panel mounting , the device is inserted through a cutout in the control panel and fixed to the control panel or control cabinet from behind using
the mounting brackets. The diagram below shows the dimensions required
for the control panel cutout.
Figure15: Dimensions for the cutout
A wall thickness of 2...5 mm (0.08...0.2in) is needed for secure device fixing.
To mount the device in the control panel or control cabinet, proceed as follows:
1. Close the device's door.
2. Insert the device through the cutout in the control panel or control cabinet
.
3. Screw both fixing brackets to the rear of the device with 2 hexagon socket
screws each .

Proceed with wiring as shown in the connection diagram and as described in
the Connecting device [►Section 6.3, Page 34] section.
6.2.2 Wall mounting with mounting brackets
As an alternative to mounting the device directly on the wall, it can be fixed
to the wall using the mounting brackets supplied.
Drill 4 holes, each 5.5 mm (0.22in) in diameter, in the wall as shown in the
drilling template below.
6 Mounting
Figure17: Bores for wall mounting with mounting brackets
To mount the device using the mounting brackets, proceed as follows:
1. Lay the device carefully on the door.
2. Screw the mounting brackets supplied to the back of the device using the
hexagon socket screws .
3. Fix the device on the wall using 4 screws (maximum diameter of 5
mm/0.22in) .
The screws for fixing to the wall are not included in the scope of supply. The
screw length required depends on the wall thickness.
