Description:
This modul has a load capacity without additional cooling of max. 3.5 ampere (at 110 V~ approx.
385 VA, at 230 V~ approx. 805 VA). If the module with the cooling angle lies flat on a heat sink that is
mounted insulated (ribbed cooler, minimum dimension: approx. 10 x 6 x 2 cm) or any similar cooling metal
surface, loads up to 12 ampere (at 110 V~ approx. 1320 VA, at 230 V~ approx. 2720 VA) may be
connected. Dimensions: approx. 60 x 56 x 23 mm without fixing straps.
Attention: Only glow lamps, motors with carbon slider (e.g. handdrilling machine), heating sets etc. are to be
connected. Motors with starting capacitor, fluorescent and quartz lamps etc. cannot be controlled! Short cir-
cuits in the load circuit, overload and wrong connection lead to immediate destruction of the module. Since
all modules are tested carefully, no compensation on generosity is possible. Please consider the VDE-
security regulations: e.g. pre-switched fuse, contact protection on live parts, pull discharge for connection
cables etc.
Intended use:
Output regulation in ohmic consumers with an operating voltage of 110.....240 V~ and a current
consumption of less than 13 ampere (the peak current consumption of the consumer must be less than 16
amperes). Ohmic consumers are: electric light bulbs, halogen lamps, soldering irons, electric heatings, etc.
The following devices may be regulated at inductive consumers: electric motors with carbon sliding con-
tacts.
Circuit description:
The module works with a phase control.
Check list for troubleshooting:
The module has to be screwed on to a heat sink that is mounted insulated. If the fault current-safety cutout
releases, then there is an electric connection between the connection to earth or phase connection of the
current supply and the cooling angle of the module or of the supply line to the potentiometer or regulated
consumer or a wrong connection of the current supply. Please check the complete installation once again
for such inadmissible connections!
If you want to regulate drilling machines or the like, please make sure that there is no electronic system al-
ready superposed to the built-in motors (e.g. electronic gearshifting, soft start, etc.). It is not possible to
make 2 regulations at the same time (the built-in regulation and this module).
Available attachments: Auxiliary module M150. When superposing this module, it also possible to control
the dimmer module M028 with control voltages (1...5 V= or 3...12 V= or 6...24 V=) or with TTL pulses
(optionally in each case).
Safety instructions for KEMO Modules - These safety instructions have to be read before connecting the module! Pro-
hibited for persons under 14 years of age!
KEMO modules are manufactured according to DIN EN 60065 and comply with the safety requirements with regard
to manufacture. All safety elements required for the final assembly are listed in the mounting instructions and must
not be omitted for safety regulations. The assembly and starting may only be carried out by authorized persons who
can also be held responsible for possible damage.
The mounting instructions supplied by the manufacturer for completion of the appliances are to be observed. All safe-
ty facilities are to be installed for permanent operation and must not be ignored for personal safety. The same applies
to the operating instructions mentioned in the manufacturer's instructions.
The module must not be exposed to extreme temperatures (more than 50°C) and humidity. The regulations for pre-
vention of accidents for electrical installations and operating material of the industrial employer's liability insurance
association are to be observed in industrial facilities.
The module may become warm during operation depending on the load. Therefore, it is advisable to fit it into a well
ventilated spot.
In schools, training centers and do-it-yourself workshops, the operation of these modules is to be supervised reliably
by trained personnel.
Never place this module and the supply lines close to combustible or inflammable materials (e.g. curtains).
For all kits and modules which come into contact with a voltage higher than 25 V, the VDE - safety instructions must
be observed! The installation resp. initial operation may only be done by an expert! The most important safety instruc-
tions are: Protection against accidental contact for all metallic parts which can carry more than 25 V current. Strain
reliefs at all cables! In case of defect, components or the module can burst! Therefore the module resp. the printed
circuit board have to be installed in such a way that in this case as well as in case of fire no damage occurs
(installation into earthed metallic cupboards or earthed metallic casings and superposing of safety fuses).
