This manual contains information about the installation and service of an end station. Read this manual carefully and follow all safety instructions. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your Fancom dealer. The subjects discussed in this manual are listed in the table of contents.
The VLR.6 is a power controller for the control of: • 1-phase voltage controllable (triac) fans • Electronically controllable lighting (incandescent lighting and controllable fluorescent lighting) • Heating lamps (phase angle control) • Heating elements (period control) The VLR.6 has extensive manual operation possibilities in the event of malfunctioning.
-10°C to 50°C (14°F to 112°F) Relative humidity < 95%, uncondensed Fancom advises 2-wire connection of Fancom fans. If the fans are connected parallel, heat production per fan may increase (causing a shortened working life). Fancom therefore advises not to parallel...
Fancom VLR.6 3. Mounting and installation 3. Mounting and installation When mounting/installing an end station, the following should be observed: Disconnect power before installation. 1. Use correct wires as shown on the connection diagrams and follow all instructions. 2. Never mount the end station in a place where the weather has direct influence (not in the sun, not in places where the temperature can rise sharply etc.).
Fancom VLR.6 4. Operation 4. Operation In the event of malfunctioning the VLR.6 can be set manually using the switch and knob on the front. Table 1 indicates the function of the output at the different switch and/or knob settings.
5. Points of attention 5.1 Analog control The VLR.6 is set as standard as an 10-0Vdc analog control. When this control changes into a 0-10Vdc control, jumper J3 should be changed; see jumper setting. The manual operation connection should also be changed.
Fancom VLR.6 5. Points of attention 5.2 Jumper setting The VLR.6 has four jumpers with which different settings can be made. Table 3 shows the applications and corresponding jumper settings. The factory setting is for fan(s) with DSR feedback. Disconnect the power for the VLR.6 before setting the jumper(s).
Using potentiometer P2 adjust the minimum voltage between "U" and "V" so that the fan is barely running. A Fancom fan is normally 2-wire connected and the voltage between "U" and "V" not set below 60Vac. (With a 3-wire connection , do not set the Fancom fan below 45Vac).
Set the knob to MAN. and turn until the fan starts running. Using potentiometer P2 adjust the minimum voltage between "U" and "V" (for a Fancom fan, not below 30Vac). 6.3 Lighting Switch off the power supply to the end station.
Fancom VLR.6 6. Adjustment procedures 6.4 Heating The heating control is a fully period controlled control within 10 seconds. This means, for example, that with 40% control the heating will be on for 4 seconds and off for 6 seconds. A full period control means that an entire sine will always be controlled.
