MANUFACTURER'S DECLARATION DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY Manufacturer IBC control AB Brännerigatan 5 A SE-263 37 Höganäs Sweden Tel: +46 42 33 00 10 Product Control unit for rotary heat exchanger Type designation VariMax100 UL/CSA Applicable EMC Directive 2014/30/EU EU Directives Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU...
DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS • e VariMax100 UL/CSA is part of a range of control units adapted for optimum control of rotary heat exchangers, with the necessary additional functions. e range consists of three sizes: VariMax25 UL/CSA, VariMax50 UL/CSA and VariMax100 UL/CSA. All control units run a 3-phase stepping motor.
TECHNICAL DATA, CONTROL UNIT Connection voltage 1x230-240 V +/-15 % Output frequency 0-333 Hz 50/60 Hz Acceleration and 30 sec Power input, max. 500 W retardation time Ambient temperature, Input current, max. 2,2 A -30 - +45 non condensing -40 - +45 C ***) External fuse, max.
DIP SWITCH Cleaning function Cleaning function connected in ON position. When the rotor has stopped for 10 minutes, the cleaning function is activated and the rotor starts to rotate. As a warning, the rotor rst rotates for 6 seconds at a motor speed of 5 rpm, the rotor is then stationary for 3 seconds.
Continued from previous page Probable fault cause - Magnet turned the wrong way during installation - Rotation montor incorrectly connected (wrong polarity), refer to "connections" on page 9 - Gap too wide between the magnetic sensor and magnet; max 15 mm Probable fault cause in - Broken belt operation...
