Protect the external power supply by fitting a fuse between the external power supply and the control system. The size of the fuse will depend on the specification of the external power supply, the cable cross section and on local regulations.

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Overview The PNOZmulti systems are designed for use within an electromagnetic industrial environ- ment. To ensure electromagnetic compatibility the correct procedures must be carried out during installation. A device is electromagnetically compatible if It functions without error in a given electromagnetic environment.
Group 2: Data and supply lines for DC voltages from 60 V to 400 V and AC voltages from 25 V to 400 V. Group 3: Supply lines above 400 V Cabling inside buildings The cable groups listed above should be laid separately. Installation Manual PNOZmulti Installation Manual 1002265-EN-02...
– 25 mm for equipotential bonding cable over 200 m in length If the devices of the control system PNOZmulti are connected with shielded signal cables which are earthed at either end, the impedance is calculated as follows: – Impedance equipotential bonding cable = 10 % of shield impedance Use copper or galvanised steel equipotential bonding cable.
Control System", under "Analogue input module". 3.2.6 Suppression on inductive loads Adequate protection must be provided for all inductive consumers. 3.2.7 Lighting in the control cabinet Use low interference panel lighting for inside the control cabinet.

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Testing the EMC-compliance of an installation You can use the list below to check that the installation of the control systems PNOZmulti and PNOZmulti Mini is EMC-compliant. Check Action Done Are there areas with a high EMC protection in these areas should be probability of interference? planned with particular care.

With unbalanced loads, e.g. TN-C systems, currents can be fed back to the source via the PEN conductor and the currents on the PEN are not zero. This can lead to EMC problems. Installation Manual PNOZmulti Installation Manual 1002265-EN-02...
To comply with EMC requirements, the mounting rail must have a low impedance con- nection to the control cabinet housing. The coated versions of the PNOZmulti units are suitable for use where there are in- creased environmental requirements on temperature and humidity. Please refer to the technical details.
The ambient temperature in the control cabinet must not exceed the figure stated in the technical details. Air conditioning may otherwise be required.

4.4.2 Connecting the base unit and expansion modules The position of the expansion modules is defined in the PNOZmulti Configurator. The ex- pansion modules are connected to the left or right of the base unit, depending on the type. Please refer to the document "PNOZmulti System Expansion" for details of the number of modules that can be connected to the base unit and the module types.
(connect in star). Supply voltage The base units from the configurable control system PNOZmulti require a 24 VDC supply. The connected expansion modules can be supplied with voltage from the base unit via the jumpers.
There is no earthing spring on the PNOZmulti Mini. Any connection re- quired to the mounting rail must be established externally (e.g. with the link modules PNOZ mml1p, PNOZ mml2p).

Connecting the Control System PNOZmulti INFORMATION With the RJ45 and Mini-IO plug-in connections, please note that the mech- anical load capacity of the data cable and connector is limited. Appropriate design measures should be used to ensure that the plug-in connection is in- sensitive to increased mechanical stress (e.g.
RJ45 or Mini-IO fe- male connector. Pilz supplies complete adapters as well as ready-made cable with female connectors, which can be used when making your own adapter. The range of products in this area is constantly being expanded.

The cascading outputs may not be used to drive loads. The same also applies to out- puts on PNOZelog units that are connected to cascading inputs on PNOZmulti units. If necessary, a reset lock must be provided on each cascaded unit.
Remember to consider the switch-on delay and any potential delay time for the outputs on the PNOZelog units (see operating manual or PNOZelog technical catalogue). When connecting PNOZmulti - PNOZelog, the cascading output “CO-” is not connec- ted. PNOZ m1p...
Tree structures may be designed with as many levels as necessary. Conditions: A max. of 4 PNOZmulti units may be incorporated in parallel on each level. PNOZelog units may only be connected to the PNOZmulti units in series. Max. of one PNOZelog unit is permitted on each level. PNOZ m1p...
Connecting the Control System PNOZmulti 5.13.4 Supply voltage for the cascaded units The cascaded PNOZmulti units may be supplied via a power supply. The power con- sumption of the individual units should be considered when deciding on the size of the power supply.
Cable runs between the connected units: – PNOZmulti - PNOZmulti: Max. 100 m – PNOZelog - PNOZmulti cascaded directly: Max. 10 m – Cable material: see Technical details Outside the control cabinet, both the wires from the cascading input (CI+, CI-) and the wires from the cascading output (CO+, CO-) must be laid in separate multicore cables.
