Any change in requirements may require re-commissioning or modification of the system. Do not modify any GEW UV system without the prior written approval of GEW. Symbols, Warnings, Cautions and Information This document, and GEW equipment, use the symbols set out below. They highlight possible dangers where you need to take safety precautions and follow good practice.
RRs are available in four sizes to house 1, 2, up to 6 and up to 8 RPSUs each and are referred to as 1-way, 2-way, 6-way and 8-way RRs. 6-way RRs can be stacked two high if required. Figure 2 and Figure 3 show typical GEW RRs of the 6-way and 1-way variety respectively.
This is the responsibility of the customer. Loose cables between the power supply cabinet, the host press, and GEW equipment must be protected by suitable cable trays/metal trunking. This is the responsibility of the customer.
RHINO UV System Installation Manual – Module 4, Power Supply Installation 6, 8-way RR 1, 2-way RR 1.50m 1.18m Figure 5: RHINO cabinet maintenance access footprint 3.2.1 Lifting and Moving the RR 1 & 2-way RRs are fitted with two lifting handles, one at each end of the RR. The handles are intended primarily for lifting the RR onto and off a pallet by two persons.
RHINO UV System Installation Manual – Module 4, Power Supply Installation Figure 7: RR with lower panel removed RR Distribution Systems and Internal Protection Devices Each RR requires a single mains feed to be connected directly to the three-pole isolator mounted within the RR.
The planning strategy as laid out in EN61000-4-12 must be implemented. If the harmonic demand is thought to be of concern, please contact GEW UV who will be able to advise on harmonic mitigation techniques to reduce the harmonic demand of the system.
RHINO UV System Installation Manual – Module 4, Power Supply Installation 3.5.3 Mains Supply Connection, RR (6 & 8-way) The mains supply connection is located behind the inner panel and the distribution panel on the left hand side of the RR. Refer to Figure 10.
RHINO UV System Installation Manual – Module 4, Power Supply Installation Transient Suppression GEW RRs are fitted with transient suppression protection. The status of the transient suppression protection is monitored on 3x surge protective devices which must show green in their display windows. See Figure 12. These are located on the inner panel of the 6 and 8-way RR and on the distribution shelf of the 1 and 2-way RR.

Repeat steps c. and d. above for cables to subsequent RPSUs. Refit cable entry plate. Caution: Ensure the correct GEW lamphead is connected to the correct RPSU, e.g. lamphead 2 to RPSU 2, by matching the number tags on lampheads, cables, and RPSUs.
RHINO UV System Installation Manual – Module 4, Power Supply Installation RRs and other accessories do not typically require being connected in sequence. This may allow shorter cable runs dependant on the layout of the electrical cabinets. Please see your Installation Drawings for details on the wiring of your system.

3.12 Connecting the RR to the Cooling Fan(s) Each GEW cooling fan is connected to the cabinet via a single GEW connector cable that supplies electrical power to the fan. The fan connection cables have male and female connectors at each end that are plugged into the relevant sockets on the fans and the cabinet.
Connecting the RR to the HMI Panel The HMI panel is connected to the RR via a GEW cable that both powers the HMI and joins it to the CAN Bus. The cable connects to socket “P6 HMI” on the front face of the 1 &...
GEW UV systems have a standard electrical interface with the host press. Connection is via a GEW custom cable with a connector at one end that plugs into a dedicated socket marked “P1 PRESS” on RPSU number 1. See Figure 24.
1. The ‘Press Speed’ signal must be within the range of 0-10V DC. Ensure the polarity is correct to prevent damage to the UV system. 2. The ‘Fault’ and ‘Ready’ relay contacts in the Rhino are rated to 1A 24VDC max. 3. To avoid problems with different signal levels and ground connections, volt free or ‘dry’...
RHINO UV System Installation Manual – Module 4, Power Supply Installation 3.15 Connecting the RR to a Chiller Interlock On water cooled systems a chiller interlock connection is made which prevents use of the UV lamps when the chiller is not running. Connection details and functionality vary from system to system.
