2. Configurazione e installazione

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your DHC-96 device. Ensure all power sources are disconnected before proceeding with installation.

2.1 Montaggio a pannello

• Prepare a panel cutout with dimensions of 96 x 49 mm.
• Insert the DHC-96 unit into the cutout from the front.
• Secure the unit using the provided mounting clips or brackets from the rear of the panel. Ensure a snug fit to maintain the IP 54 frontal protection rating.

2.2 Collegamento dell'alimentazione

The DHC-96 supports a universal power supply. Connect the power source to the designated terminals on the rear of the unit.

• For AC/DC power, connect to 80-270 Vca/cc terminals.
• For DC power, connect to 16-36 VCC terminals.
• Assicurarsi che la polarità dei collegamenti CC sia corretta.

2.3 Measurement Input Connection

Connect the signal source to the programmable measurement input terminals. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with your specific model for detailed connection points.

• Per volumetage measurements, connect the voltage fonte.
• For current measurements, connect through a shunt or current transformer as appropriate for your application.
• Ensure galvanic insulation between external circuits is maintained.

2.4 Collegamento uscita relè

The DHC-96 features two output relays for control and alarm functions. Connect these relays to your external control systems or alarm indicators as required.

• Identify the relay output terminals.
• Wire the relays according to your application's control logic.
• Configure alarm delays and interlocking settings via the device's menu.

3. Istruzioni per l'uso

Once installed and powered, the DHC-96 is ready for operation. The front panel features a digital display and control buttons for configuration and monitoring.

3.1 Fine displayview

The digital display shows the measured electrical variant (e.g., voltage, current, frequency) or the proportional value of a process signal. The unit automatically adjusts the display based on the configured measurement type.

• Sistemi CC: In grado di misurare il volumetage, current, frequency, and other industrial process variables.
• Modelli CA: Perform measurements in True Effective Value (TRMS).
• Punto decimale: The decimal point is self-configurable to suit your measurement precision requirements.

3.2 Funzioni dei pulsanti

The front panel buttons allow for navigation through menus, parameter configuration, and display adjustments. Specific button functions may vary slightly depending on the firmware version.

• Frecce sinistra/destra (< / >): Typically used for navigating through menu options or adjusting values.
• Frecce su/giù (∧ / ∨): Utilizzato per incrementareasing/decreasing values or selecting options.
• Pulsante Menu/Invio: Used to access the main menu, confirm selections, or save settings.
• Pulsante Esc/Indietro: Utilizzato per uscire da un menu o annullare un'operazione.

3.3 Configuration and Programming

The DHC-96 allows for programming various parameters to suit specific application needs. This includes setting the measurement input type, configuring alarm thresholds, and defining relay behaviors.

• Access the configuration menu by pressing the Menu/Enter button.
• Navigare tra le opzioni del menu utilizzando i pulsanti freccia.
• Select the desired parameter to modify and adjust its value.
• Save changes before exiting the menu.
• Refer to the detailed programming guide (if available separately) for advanced configurations.

4. Manutenzione

The DHC-96 is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance. Regular inspection and cleaning will help ensure its continued performance.

• Pulizia: Pulire periodicamente il pannello frontale con un panno morbido eamp panno. Non utilizzare detergenti abrasivi o solventi, poiché potrebbero danneggiare il display o casing.
• Ispezione: Regularly inspect the wiring connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or looseness. Ensure the unit is securely mounted in its panel cutout.
• Ambiente: Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified temperature and humidity ranges to prevent damage. The IP 54 frontal protection helps against dust and splashing water, but the unit is not designed for immersion.
• Nessuna parte riparabile dall'utente: The DHC-96 contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open the casing, poiché ciò invaliderà la garanzia e potrebbe esporre a rischi elettrici.

5. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter issues with your DHC-96, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps. For problems not listed here, contact Circutor technical support.

• Nessun display/alimentazione:
  • Check the power supply connections to ensure they are secure and correctly wired.
  • Verify that the power source voltage is within the specified range (80-270 Vca/cc or 16-36 VCC).
  • Check for any tripped circuit breakers or blown fuses in the power circuit.
• Letture errate:
  • Ensure the measurement input is correctly connected and the signal source is active.
  • Verify that the device's measurement input type is correctly configured in the settings to match your application (e.g., voltage, current, process signal).
  • Check for any external interference or noise affecting the signal.
  • Confirm the decimal point setting is appropriate for the expected values.
• Relè non attivato:
  • Check the relay output wiring for proper connection to the external control system.
  • Verify the alarm thresholds and relay logic are correctly configured in the device's settings.
  • Ensure the measured value has exceeded or fallen below the set alarm threshold.
  • Check for any configured alarm delays or interlocking conditions that might prevent immediate activation.
