Door cut-out of 93(+0.8) x138(+1) mm, door thickness 1.5- 3mm. Remove all connectors and clip before inserting the controller in the cut-out then fix the controller in place using all 4 fixations clips (cf. image below): ATyS Controller A15 - 549779A - SOCOMEC...
Install on IEC 60715 Standard Din RAIL. When mounting make sure both clips are pushed up, then clip on the DIN Rail. To remove from the DIN Rail, drag the two mounting clips down before removing the product. ATyS Controller A15 - 549779A - SOCOMEC...
9. CONNECTIONS When using the ATyS A15 without the Socomec Harness, gG 4A fuse protection is DANGER required on the voltage sensing inputs cf connection diagrams. When using the A15 with ATyS R and the Socomec harness gG fuses are mandatory.
In 3 phases with Neutral balanced networks, there is a risk that the loss of neutral will not be detected. CAUTION To limit this risk the Dip switch 4 (Hysteresis) can be switched to position A. (Cf chapter 10-5 programing). ATyS Controller A15 - 549779A - SOCOMEC...

NOTE 1: Use 7mm as stripping length for the controller terminals NOTE 2: Use 90°C copper wire for installations with ambient temperature from 35-60°C. When the ambient temperature is above 60°C, Use 105°C copper wire. ATyS Controller A15 - 549779A - SOCOMEC...
10. ATYS A15 OPERATING MODES The ATyS A15 has 3 distinct working modes, the working modes are selected using the HMI button or by using the 63A/64A input. The 3 working modes are working as described below: • Auto mode In this mode the controller will automatically give orders to the RTSE connected to switch to the correct position according to the settings selected.
• Frequency within set limits The ATyS A15 will check that the frequency is within the limits configured through DIP switch 4. Frequency is checked on L1 only. • Loss of the main or alternate power supply Loss of supply depends on the nominal voltage and frequency configured together with the hysteresis (set in DIP switch 4)The source will be considered as lost after the fail timer as counted down (set through dip switches 7 &...
Control signal outputs are the output orders (dry contact) to the RTSE; the ATyS A15 includes 3 signal outputs and a common (point powered by the user) (Terminals 17 to 14). These outputs are rated for 250 Vac, 50/60 Hz 5A general use , and 30 V.d.c 5A general use.
