DOL 278AT 1 Product description DOL 278T is an advanced emergency opening unit providing optimum safety in connection with technical fail- ures. This is achieved by means of a separate temperature sensor and manual setting of the temperature limit for emergency opening. DOL 278T opens only as much as needed. DOL 278T is specially designed for harsh livestock house environments.
DOL 278AT 2 Procedure This manual describes the mounting, installation and commissioning of a DOL 278T controlled emergency opening system and is aimed primarily at the technicians and electricians who will be mounting, installing and testing the emergency opening system. The following checklist indicates the main points of the work flow regarding set up of the emergency opening system.
DOL 278AT 3 Product survey 134692 DOL 278AMT-1 EmergencyOpen Temp Medium 4.2A Temperature-controlled emergency opening in a one-house version. Max. power consumption: 4.2 A Battery: 4 Ah Two temperature sensors are included (1 inside temperature sensor + 1 outside temperature sensor).
DOL 278AT 4 Mounting guide 1. Drill holes in the bottom of the cabinet (A). 2. Place the emergency opening unit: - close enough to the house controller for the rubber sleeve supplied (B) to fit neatly between them (the emergency opening unit can be placed on either side of the house controller).
DOL 278AT 4.1 Mounting of climate sensors • Never use a plug on the DOL 12 temperature sensor as a bad connection here could have disas- trous results. • Never use shrink-on sleeves when splicing wires inside the livestock house. Use a contact box. Placing of sensors inside the house •...
DOL 278AT 5 Installation guide Installation, servicing and troubleshooting of all electrical equipment must be carried out by quali- fied personnel in compliance with the applicable national and international standard EN 60204-1 and any other EU standards that are applicable in Europe. The installation of a power supply isolator is required for each motor and power supply to facilitate voltage-free work on the electrical equipment.

DOL 278AT 5.6 Setup options at high power consumption When the distance between the climate controller and wall fan or actuator is long, you can avoid long, thick low- power cables by placing DOL 278 ON/OFF close to the power-consuming units. An unlimited number of DOL 278 ON/OFF can be installed close to wall fans and actuators to supply 24 V DC.
DOL 278AT 5.8.3 Emergency opening - Temperature controlled and with DOL 278 ON/ DOL 278T placed at climate controller and DOL 278 ON/OFF placed at fan. DOL 278 ON/OFF is used as extra power supply. No. 2 No. 1 Climate controller Emergency opening Jumper in climate controller DOL 278 ON/OFF no.
DOL 278AT 5.9 Number of fans and actuators on emergency opening The table states the maximum number of fans and actuators that can be connected to DOL 278 ON/OFF, when DOL 278 ON/OFF is used as additional 24 V DC power supply. DOL 278AM emergency DOL 278AL emergency DOL 278AXL emergency...

DOL 278AT Yes: When the control fails, the air outlet is active. No: When the control fails, the air outlet is inactive. Side cooling Yes: When the control fails, side cooling is active and runs until the emergency situation is over. No: When the control fails, the side cooling is not active.
DOL 278AT 6 Testing 6.1 Lamp indications Flashing sequence Cause Outdoor temperature compensation active: Switches on in the relevant side(s) (yellow). 2 sec. - endless Misplaced outside sensor: Move the outside sensor away from the sunlight. Flashes in both sides (yellow). 0.1 sec./1 sec.
DOL 278AT Battery status (Constant light. One of the battery lamps): Green > 80% Yellow = 80-20% Red < 20% Low battery emergency opening If the battery voltage is below approx. 16 V, all lamps turn on simultaneously and system opens constantly. 6.2 Testing the installation Test only one house at a time.
DOL 278AT 6.3 Testing battery capacity 6.3.1 Testing battery voltage The emergency opening automatically checks the battery voltage and the 15 A fuse by briefly reducing the charging voltage (approx. 5 seconds) every 3 minutes. The check can also be carried out manually by turning the button to Test. DOL 278 ON/OFF´s battery capacity is not checked automatically if two emergency openings are connected in parallel.
DOL 278AT 7 Troubleshooting guide If two emergency openings are parallel connected the green lamp on the front of the DOL 278 ON/OFF must re- main lit during ”Testing the battery capacity with disconnected supply voltage”, as a sign that there is voltage on the battery.
