1. General
Before installation and start-up, read this manual carefully to ensure a correct use.

Attention! Hazardous area!

Danger owing to electric current or voltage!!

Important information!

The copyright for these operating instructions remains to ZIEHL-ABEGG AG, Knzelsau.
The device is constructed in accordance with the current state of technology and the recognised safety regulations.
Nevertheless, use of the device is associated with dangers which may cause death or injury to users or third parties as
well as damage to the system and other objects.
The device is intended exclusively for the tasks listed in the order confirmation. Any other or extraordinary uses of the
device (unless previously agreed by contract) are considered contrary to regulations. The manufacturer is not liable for
damages resulting from incorrect use. The operating company alone bears the risk.
To allow for future developments, construction methods and technical data given are subject to alteration. We do not
accept any liability for possible errors or omissions in the information contained in data, illustrations or drawings
provided.
The controllers are packed ex factory to suit the transport method previously agreed. Always use the original packaging
materials when transporting the controller. When transporting by hand, ensure that personnel possess the strength
required to lift and carry the device. Avoid shocks and impacts to the device. Check the packaging and controller for
damage.
Store the controller in its original packaging in a dry and weather-proof room. The device must not be exposed to
extreme heat and low temperatures.
2. Safety measures
In the case of a malfunction or a failure of the equipment check all functions with alarms in order to prevent
injury to persons or property. Note possibility of back-up operation.
If used in intensive animal environments, any malfunctions in the air supply must be detected as soon as
possible to prevent the development of a life-threatening situation for the animals. The design and installation of
the system must comply with local regulations and directives. In Germany these include DIN VDE 0100, the
animal protection and the keeping of working animals ordinance and the pig-keeping ordinance etc.
Also note the instructions of AEL, DLG, VdS.
Apart from the operating instructions and the obligatory regulations to be followed by users relating to accident
prevention, the recognised technical regulations must also be observed (safety and branch-related work as per UVV,
VBG, VDE, etc.).

These devices are potentially dangerous if they are used incorrectly by untrained personnel or are not implemented
according to their specified use.
Work on electric components/modules may only be carried out by trained electricians in accordance with
electro-technical regulations (e.g. EN 60204, DIN VDE 0100/0113/0160).

The contractor or owner must also ensure that the electric systems and equipment are operated and maintained in
accordance with electro-technical regulations. The owner is obliged to ensure that the device are operated in perfect
working order only.

It is forbidden to carry out work on electrically live parts. The rating given in the enclosure for the device when
open is IP00! It is possible to inadvertently touch components carrying hazardous voltages!

During operation, the device must be closed or installed in a control cabinet.

Fuses may only be replaced by new ones and must not be repaired or bypassed. The data for the maximum line fuse
are to be considered absolutely () Technical data). Use only fuses specified in schematic diagrams.

The safe isolation from the supply must be checked using a two-pole voltage detector.

Any faults detected in the electric system/modules/operating equipment must be corrected immediately. If these faults
are not corrected, the device/system is potentially very dangerous. The device/system must therefore not be operated
when it is faulty.

3.4 Power decrease for increased ambient temperatures

The units maximum permissible ambient temperature is depending on version 40 C, or 50C.Up to that temperature a
load of the quoted rated current is possible. The removal of heat in the unit due to power dissipation is dependent on the
ambient temperature, so the maximum load has to be reduced if the ambient temperature is higher than 40 C or 50C!
For each degree higher the load has to be reduced approx.. 2.2%.
The median (measured 24 h) has to be 5 C below the max. ambient temperature. Pay attention of the units power
dissipation and their possible effects on the ambient temperature if the unit is mounted in a switch cabinet () General

4. Installation
4.1 Mounting
Assemble the device on a clean and stable base. Do not distort during assembly! Use the appropriate mounting
devices for proper installation of the unit!
Do not mount equipment on vibrating base!
Use the appropriate fixing equipment. The plastic washers must be installed between the screw heads and the
housing for models with mounting holes on the inside of the housing!
Install the device away from transport routes. However, ensure however that the device is still easily accessible!
Depending on the housing model cut off necessary cable inlets respectively to the cable diameter. Or alternative use
cable inlet for cable glands. Metal sheet housings are supplied with stoppers. Any cable ducts openings not used
must be sealed!
Protect the device from direct exposure to sunlight!
The device is designed for vertical installation (cable inlet down). A horizontal or reclined installation is only
permissible after consultation with the manufacturer.
Be sure to observe proper heat dissipation () Technical data, heat dissipation)

4.2 Minimum space requirement

In order to ensure sufficient ventilation of the device, clearance on all sides of at
least 50 mm has to be maintained to the housing walls, switch cabinet doors,
wiring ducts, etc. The same clearance applies to the installation of several
devices next to each other () illustration).
When installing several devices on top of each other, the danger of reciprocal min. 50 mm
heating exists. This layout is only then permissible when the air suctioned from
the upper unit does not become warmer than the permissible ambient
temperature () Technical data). I.e., a correspondingly larger clearance or
thermal shielding is required.

4.3 Outdoor installation

Outdoor installation is possible up to -20C when the controller supply is not switched off.
Installation must be protected from the effects of weather as much as possible, including protection from direct sunlight!

4.4 Installation location for agriculture

In order to avoid damage caused by ammoniac vapours (NH3), the controller shall not be installed in the stable, but
rather in an outhouse wherever possible.

4.5 Temperature influences during commissioning

Avoid condensation in the controller and hence functional faults attributable to condensation by storing the controller at
room temperature!

4.6 Residual-current-operated protective device

Owing to possible leakage currents occurring when the device is switched on, it is advisable to use short-time-delayed
current-operated circuit-breakers. This prevents any triggering by mistake.
Plants without neutral conductor connection ) Electrical connections: Mains connection.

4.7 Potential at control voltage connections

The control voltage connections (<50 V) relate to the joint GND potential (Exception: Relay contacts are potential free).
There is a potential separation between the control voltage connections and the earthed conductor.
It must be ensured that the maximum external voltage at the control voltage connections cannot exceed 50V (between
GND terminals and PE earthed conductor).
If necessary, a connection to the earthed conductor potential can be established, install bridge between GND terminal
and the PE connection (terminal for screening )

4.8 Employment in the IT Net

In the IT net the neutral point of voltage supply is not grounded; in the case of a short-circuit between a phase (e.g. "L1")
and protective grounding "PE" becomes the protective grounding potential = "L1".
In order to ensure a trouble free enterprise in this case,
1. the "GND" potential of the control ports does not have to be connected with the protective grounding potential,
2. the "N" lead must not be connected.
As consequence of the connection between "GND" potential of the control ports with protective grounding potential, the
following must be considered (exception relay contacts floating):
1. Only with lines for mains voltage and environment are suitable attach.
2. Attach over suitable isolating amplifiers.

5. Electrical connections
5.1 Mains connection
Power from the mains is connected to terminals: PE, L1, L2, L3, and N. Here, it must be strictly observed that the mains
voltage lies within the allowable tolerance specifications () General description: Technical data and nameplate affixed
to the side).
The neutral conductor connection N is only for the leakage currents reduction. It is of no significance for the function of
the device. The connection is not applicable for power supply networks without a neutral conductor. Since higher
leakage currents may arise by this across the protective-cable connection PE, unwanted triggering by mistake may
occur in systems with FI protection circuits.
If the neutral conductor N is not connected and the PE connection is interrupted, touching can
result in dangerously high leakage currents. In this case, EN 50178 Section 5.3.2.1 for devices with
leakage current above 3.5 mA must be observed.
(Employment in the IT network ) 4.8)

The supply voltage has to correspond to DIN EN 50160!

5.2 Adjustment to specific mains conditions

Fixed 60 Hz assignment
Upon connection, the mains frequency (50 or 60 Hz) is automatically detected and used to trigger ignition of the
thyristors. If, in exceptional cases, a 60 Hz mains frequency can not be clearly identified, fixed assignment can be
necessary (mains failure, as device operates at 50 Hz if 60 Hz is not detected).

By dipswitch S1 No. 6
ON (up) = 60 Hz fix
OFF (down) = automatic detection

Deactivating phase monitoring

The device has built in phase monitoring () Faults and troubleshooting: Mains failure). For special applications (e.g.
unstable mains supply, phase position other than 120 on a soft generator or for transformer operation) this can be
disconnected after consultation with Ziehl-Abegg. The motor is thus no longer protected by TWO PHASE
OPERATION (observe Motor protection chapter).

By dipswitch S1 No. 8
ON (up) = phase monitoring activ
OFF (down) = phase monitoring deactivated

5.3 Motor connection

The motor leads are connected to the terminals: PE, U, V, W. Several fans can be connected to the controller-the
maximum total current of all motors (maximum rated current for electronic control of the voltage) must not exceed the
current rating for the controller.

If the maximum control current for the electronic voltage control is not known, then allowance for an increase in the
motor nominal current must be made. Typical is this for 2- and 4-pole motors at approx. 25 %, for 6-pole motors at
approx. 20 %, for 8- and 10-pole motors at approx. 15 % and higher pole motors at approx. 5 %.
For the control of motors made by other manufacturers (not Ziehl-Abegg), the control characteristics and the
maximum current for electronic regulation of the voltage should be enquired from the manufacturer.
It is recommended that a separate motor protection unit be foreseen for each fan.
For motors with thermistors: e.g. type U-EK230E
For motors with thermal contacts: e.g. type STDT 16 (E) or AWE-SK

5.4 Motor noise

Motor noise can occur when fans are controlled using electronic voltage controllers (Phase cutting = series P...). Such
noise can be system-dependently perceived as a disturbance. This noise is relatively low for fast-running fans where the
noise from the air is high. The noise from motors in slower-running fans where the noise from the air is less, can be
dominated by resonance in the lower speed ranges.
For systems where noise is critical, we recommend using our Fcontrol series frequency converters with integrated
sinusoidal filter

5.5 Motor protection

PKDT5
The motor can be protected by connecting the thermal contacts (PKDT: T = motor protection using TK connection).
{ It shall be observed for motors with built-in PTC thermistors that these cannot be
connected to the TK terminals (type PKDT). A separate triggering unit (e.g. type
U-EK230E) is required in this case for the PTC thermistor.
{ When several motors are connected ensure that the thermal contacts are always
connected in series.
PKDM5..80
The motor can be protected by connecting the thermal contacts or PTC resistor (PKDM: M = motor protection using
TK or PTC resistor connection).
{ When several motors are connected ensure that the thermal contacts or PTC
resistors are always connected in series. A maximum of six individual thermistors
(DIN 44081 or DIN 44082) may be connected in series to a single device. Depending
on the motor type, at least two or three individual sensors are built in.
{ Monitoring of motors in Ex zones is not permissible. For systems of this type, an
additional posistor tripping unit is required, with disconnection via a separate
motor protection circuit.
The unit switches off when a connected thermal contact or PTC resistor has tripped the circuit (interruption between both
TK terminals). The unit then remains switched off. The fault-indicating relay opens (terminals 11-12 bridged) the red LED
for motor fault illuminates, the green LED for operating goes off. The unit starts up again once the drive has cooled down
by switching the mains voltage OFF and then ON again or by enable ON/OFF (terminal D1).

{ An outside voltage may never be connected to the terminals TK!

{ The internal motor protection does not function if a bypass circuit has been realised.
In this case and as well as other precautions, an additional thermal contact
protective device is necessary.

5.6 Special function only for PKDM..: Motorstart with maximum output voltage Hard start function

For types PKDM Hard start function can be activated for the connected fans.Hard start function means to force the
controller to generate for approx. 10 seconds max. voltage (100%) ignoring any control signal.
Afterwards the output voltage adjusts itself to the given or over the control amplifier calculated value.
For operation as P-controller the Hard start function works also by switching over the control function (Heating /
Cooling).

By dipswitch S1 No. 5
ON (up) = with hard start function
OFF (down) = no Hardstart function (factory setting)
After switching on of the mains voltage on the output voltage rises during the firmly programmed
run-up time to the given value

5.7 Signal cable (sensor cable)

Pay attention to sufficient distance from powerlines and motor wires to prevent interferences.
The control cables may not be longer than 30 m. Screened control cables must be used when the cable length is longer
than 20 m. When using a screened cable, the screen must be connected to the protective conductor at one end, i.e. only
at the control unit (as short and of as low an inductance as possible!).

5.8 Enable ON / OFF

Enable ON / OFF (electronic disconnection) and reset after motor fault via potential free contact, terminals
D1-D1.
Device ON with contact closed
Device OFF with contact open (Fault relay K1 not released, terminals 11-14 bridged)

Display for disconnection: Green LED flashes

No disconnection (isolation) when turned off, in accordance with VBG4 6.

5.9 Signal connection or sensor connection (Analog IN1, Analog IN2)

PKDT5 has one anlalog input (Analog IN 1).
PKDM.. controllers have 2-analog inputs (Analog IN1 & Analog IN 2)

Input 1 (Analog IN1) terminals E1 and GND

Input 2 (Analog IN2) terminals E2 and GND

Ensure correct polarity when connecting; a 24 V DC power supply is integrated for sensors. For sensors in two-wire-
technology (4-20 mA signal), the connection is made on the +24 V and E1 or E2 terminals (the GND terminal is
omitted). The connection is independent of the programmed operating mode and from the sensor signal employed.
Place the internal plug (jumper) for the external default signal in the correct position, factory setting 4..20 mA.
(Jumper for Input signal ) Pos 6).

5.10 External speed setting (operation as a speed controller)

The signal for selecting the speed is connected to the terminals E (E1)and GND; be sure to observe correct polarity.
The maximum length of the connecting cable shall be 30 m (screened).

Setting signal 4-20 mA jumper E1.1 and E1.2 down inserted

Setting signal 0-20 mA jumper E1.1 and E1.2 not inserted
0-20 mA signal is possible by connecting in an external resistor (499 / 0.25 W) in parallel between the
terminals E and GND.
Setting signal 0-10 V or external potentiometer jumper E1.1 and E1.2 not inserted
An external speed setting is possible by using a 10 k potentiometer connected to the terminals A
(+10 V) and GND with pick-off at terminal E (E2).

5.10.1 Inverting setting signal

With switch 1 to Dipswitch S1 (not inverted by the factory)
Switch 1 OFF = setting signal not inverted (0-10 V, 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA)
Switch 1 ON = setting signal inverted (10-0 V, 20-0 mA, 20-4 mA)

5.10.2 Operation with second setting signal at input E2 (special function only for PKDM..)
An input for a second default signal is activated over the switch 7 on Dipswitch S1.
Place the internal jumper E2.1 and E2.2 depending on signal in correct position (see input E1).

- Setting signal not inverted

By operation with a second signal the controller works automatically at the higher level of the two analog
inputs (E1 or E2).

- Setting signal inverted

By operation with a second signal the controller works automatically at the lower level of the two analog
inputs (E1 or E2).

5.11 Sensor Connection (operation as a P-controller)

The signal from the sensor for detection of the actual value is connected to the terminals E or E1and GND, for
sensor in two-wire-technology (output 4-20 mA) to terminals "E" (E1) and "24 V". Be sure to observe correct polarity. The
maximum length of the connecting cable shall be 30 m (screened).

There is an integrated power supply (+24 V, Imax 120 mA) for e.g., a pressure sensor of the type DSF2-25 or MBG-30I.

Sensors with the following standard signals may be connected depending on the programming of the controller:
0-10 V, 4-20 mA, KTY10-6 (PTC temperature sensor).

5.11.1 Operation with a second sensor signal at input E2 for dual circuit condensers (only for PKDM..)
The entrance for a second sensor signal is activated over the switch 7 on Dipswitch S1.
Place the internal jumper E2.1 and E2.2 depending on signal in correct position (see jumper for input E1).
By operation with a second sensor signal automatic regulation at the higher level of the two analog
inputs (selection amplifier integrated e.g. for dual circuit condensers).

5.12 Switch over control function at Digital IN 2 (only for operation as P-controller)
For operation as P-controller an external switch over of control function is possible. When terminals D2-D2 are
bridged, the device works with the opposite function than the set with Dipswitch 1 () 7.2.7).

5.13 Fault indications

An external fault indicator is available over the potential-free contacts of the built-in relay (contact load-carrying capacity
5 A, 250 V AC). The relay is energized if the controller is on mains supply, i.e. terminals 11 and 14 are bridged. If
there is a fault the relay is de-energized, i.e. terminals 11 and 12 are bridged.
- By switching off via enable ON/OFF (terminal D1) the relay is not de-energized.
- By sensor failure (only in P-control operation) message only via the LEDs (yellow + green), the relay is not
de-energized.
A fault is indicated by:
A phase failure*, blown semiconductor fuse*, excessively high temperature at the unit, a defective controller-internal
voltage supply, overheating by the motor (thermal contacts or thermistor connected).

(* for mobile application version, there is no error message for phase failure or blown semiconductor fuse!)

5.14 Voltage supply for external equipment

There is an integrated power supply e.g. for pressure sensors of the type DSF2-25 / MBG-30I.

Terminals + 24 V Output voltage tolerance 20 %.

Max. on-load current 120 mA

In the event of overload or short circuit (24 V GND), the control voltage cuts out and hence switches off the control
unit.

Reconnection after solving failure cause:

PKDT5: switch off line voltage and on again after cooling down the transformers.
PKDM... incl. multifuse: automatic switch on.

5.15 Output voltage (0-) 10 V (needed only as required)

For operation as a P-controller () basic settings):
Output voltage 0-10 V, Imax 10 mA (terminals A/GND) is approximately proportional to the regulated output voltage.
This can be used for example, for a slave controller or for a valve-positioning motor.

For operation as a speed controller () basic settings):

Fixed 10 V, Imax 10 mA voltage for maintaining the speed from an external potentiometer.

7.2.7 Minimum airflow rate (Minimum air shutdown active / not active)
The minimum airflow rate can be switched "ON" or "OFF" using dipswitch.
Dipswitch S1-2 OFF: Shutdown active = Without minimum airflow rate
Dipswitch S1-2 ON: Shutdown not active = With minimum airflow rate (factory setting)
When the setpoint is reached, the modulation is reduced to 0 %, or to the set value if Min. Speed is specified.
If minimum air shutdown is active, when actual value = setpoint, n-min is disconnected to 0.
When minimum air shutdown is inactive (factory setting) there is no disconnection, i.e. minimum ventilation is
always assured (fan does not go below n-min).

There are T W O functions for the controls action, switchover to the heating function is possible by means of the
internal dipswitch, the controller setting made at the factory is for the cooling function.

1. S1-1 OFF ^ increasing output voltage for increasing actual value (cooling)
2. S1-1 ON ^ increasing output voltage for decreasing actual value (heating)

Only for PKDM

Alternatively the change-over of the control function can be made by a contact at digital input D2 "Digital IN 2"!

8. Faults and rectification of these

8.1 Mains fault

Function only for a connected inductive load

The device is provided with a built-in phase-monitoring function for the mains supply.
In the event of a mains interruption (failure of a fuse or mains phase) the unit switches off after a delay. The unit then
switches on again automatically when the voltage has been restored.

Line fault (failure of a line phase) yellow + red

Remedy:
Check the mains supply and the internal semiconductor fuses.

For PKDT5 mobile application version, phase failure is deactivated!

In special cases phase failure can be deactivated for other types
() Electrical connections: Adjustment to specific mains conditions
8.2 Temperature fault
The unit is fitted with a built-in temperature monitoring device coupled to the internal heat sink. The unit cuts out at a
temperature of approximately 90 C and cuts in automatically again when the unit has cooled down again to about
65 C. An excessively high unit temperature is signalled by the internal LEDs.

Excessively high unit temperature (measured at the internal heat red blinking
sink)

Interruption in the leads to the heat-sink sensor green + red on and yellow blinking

Remedy in the event of an excessively high unit temperature:

- Check whether the heat dissipation is adequate.
- Check for any overloading of the unit, i.e. whether the maximum control current occurring is above the
rated current for the unit.

8.3 Motor fault

The unit cuts out and does not switch on again when the connected thermal contacts or PTC resistors for type PKDM
have tripped (interruption between both terminals TK () Electrical connection: Motor protection).

Motor fault (interruption TK terminals) red

8.4 Sensor-signal faults

Function only for operation as a P-controller

The unit is fitted with a built-in monitoring device for the sensor signal. A fault is signalled over the internal LEDs in the
event of a interruption or a short circuit in the sensor conductors, or measured values that are outside of the measuring
range for the unit.
For controllers model range PKDM sensor monitoring is also for the second input E2 (if activated by dipswitch).

Interruption / short circuit in the sensor leads or sensor values yellow + green
measured that are outside of the measuring range

Cause for the signal Sensor fault and the response by the controller

1. For a temperature-dependent control (input for temperature sensor, type TF..):

In the event of an interruption in the sensor leads.

The controller acts as in the case of an extremely high temperature, i.e. maximum output voltage.
(Control response for increasing speed for increasing actual value, see setting for operation reversed control
function (actual>set = n+)).

In the event of a short circuit in the sensor leads.

The controller acts as in the case of a very low temperature, i.e. minimum output voltage.
(Control response for increasing speed for increasing actual value, see setting for operation reversed control
function (actual>set = n+)).

In the case of temperatures at the sensor that are outside the measuring range of the controller,
- PKDT5: at approx. 0 C and as of approx. +80 C.
- PKDM5/10/12/15/25/35...: at approx. -25 C and as of approx. +75 C.

The controller functions automatically again with the value measured at the temperature sensor after the fault has
been rectified or when the actual temperature returns to within the measuring range of the controller.

2. For a pressure-dependent control (input 0-10 V / 4-20 mA):

In the event of an interruption in the sensor leads or for a short circuit between the terminals E and GND.
The controller acts as in the case of a very small measured value, i.e. minimum output voltage.
(Control response for increasing speed for increasing actual value, see setting for operation reversed control
function (actual>set = n+)).

When the upper or lower limit of the measuring range for the sensor has been reached
-For a 4-20 mA input for a sensor signal of approx. 4 mA or approx. 20 mA
-For a 0-10 V input for a sensor signal of approx. 0 V or approx. 10 V

The controller functions automatically again with the value measured at the temperature sensor after the fault has
been rectified.
8.5 If controller doesnt work correctly
Setting of dipswitch not under voltage!
If the device is on mains supply modifications will not be identified and realized.

It is forbidden to carry out work on electrically live parts. The enclosure rating of the device
when open is IP00! It is possible to inadvertently touch components carrying hazardous
voltages.

9.3 Connection suggestion for several motors with motor protection unit type STDT
Total motor protection: Automatic cut-off by thermocontact actuation ^ motor overtemperature. Button for Reset after
malfunction.
Line protection: A thermal over current sensor and a magnetic short circuit releasing elements are the parts of the integral line
protection. Adjustment to the thermal overcurrent sensor to the max. permissible current of the connected cable.
No cut-off if the mains supply is interrupted.
