Safety features
Overheat protection
switch off its own relay
sends the Notification Report to the Gateway (Overheat detected)
the led lights react as specified above (check blinking mode for Overheat detected)
Any of next activities reset this alarm: power cycle, Remotely Device reboot (by Parameter No. 117), short press on S button.
NOTE: The Overheat protection is always active and cannot be disabled.
Additional description above under chapter Notification for Overheat detected.
Over-current Protection
Device has internal Over-current protection. If the current exceeds 16A+10% (Max switching current +10%) for more than 5s, the Device will:
switch off its own relay
sends the Notification Report to the Gateway (Over-current detected)
the led lights react as specified above (check blinking mode for Over-current detected)
Any of next activities reset this alarm: power cycle, Remotely Device reboot (by Parameter No. 117).
NOTE: The Over-current protection is always active and cannot be disabled.
Additional description above under chapter Notification for Over-current detected.
Over-voltage Protection
Device has internal Over-voltage protection. This is valid for standard power supply voltage 230 V AC. If the voltage exceeds 240 V AC+15% (278 V AC) for more than 5s, the Device will:
switch off its own relay
sends the Notification Report to the Gateway (Over-voltage detected)
the led lights react as specified above (check blinking mode for Over-voltage detected)
Any of next activities reset this alarm: power cycle, Remotely Device reboot (by Parameter No. 117), short press on S button.
NOTE: The Over-current protection is always active and cannot be disabled.
Additional description above under chapter Notification for Over-voltage detected.
