Installation manual
General information
With zelsius C5 IUF, you have acquired one of
the most up-to-date, modern heat meters cur-
rently available on the market. By this version,
the water volume is determined based on the
transit time method. The measurement accuracy
is based on the measurement requirements of
EN 1434 class 2, optionally class 3. Expressive
symbols in the display and easy menu naviga-
tion make readout simple. Can be operated with
one single button. It is equipped with a long-life
battery made for operation during the initial veri-
cation validity period (5 years) including a re-
serve of at least another year. The meter can be
equipped optionally with a battery lifetime of 11
years.

MID - Initial verification
®
zelsius
C5-IUF is produced and tested in
compliance with the new European Measuring
Instruments Directive (MID). According to this
directive, devices are no longer carrying an ini-
tial verication stamp, but rather the year of the
device’s declaration of conformity (recognizable
on the front of the device, for example: M12).
The MID controls the use of heat meters up to
the moment they are placed on the market resp.

their rst putting into use. After this, the national
regulations for devices subject to compulsory
verication apply within the EU. The duration of
initial verication validity in Germany remains 5
years for heat meters.
After this period has expired the measuring de-
vice may no longer be used for billing in com-
mercial use. The regulations resp. validity period
may vary in other countries of the EU. ZENNER
International GmbH & Co. KG declares that this
product with the number of the EC type-exam-
ination certicate DE-12-MI004-PTB010 com-
plies with the requirements of the EC directives
2004/22/EC (Measuring instruments directive)
and 89/336/EEC (electro-magnetic compatibility)
Electro-magnetic interference
zelsius® C5-IUF fulls the national and interna-
tional requirements for interference resistance.
To avoid malfunctions due to other interferences,
do not install uorescent lamps, switch cabinets
or electric devices such as motors or pumps in
the immediate vicinity of the meter. Cables leav-
ing the meter should not be laid parallel to live
cables (230V) (minimum distance 0.2m)/
By meters with pulse outputs, the pulse value
can be called up in the display (see the display
overview, Level 4).
The pulse value of the outputs
is permanently set and corresponds with the last
position of the associated display value.
Example:
Output 1 = energy output
Energy display = XXXXX.XXX
Last position = 0.001 MWh = 1 kWh
Output pulse = 1 kWh
