NEBULA - TECHNICAL MANUAL - 090060843 FOREWORD FOR THE INSTALLER: Comply strictly with current standards governing the installation of electrical systems and security systems, and with the manufacturer’s directions given in the manuals supplied with the products. Provide the user with full information on using the system installed and on its limitations, pointing out that there are different levels of security performance that will need to suit the user’s requirements within the constraints of the specific applicable standards.
A NEBULA24 model can fill the whole room. Models covering higher volumes, NEBULA39 and NEBULA78, are described in their own manuals. EL.MO. SpA organizes dedicated classes to explain the procedures for proper setting evaluation and product choice. 3.2 Positioning NEBULA series devices have to be mounted at a minimum height of 2.5 m (height of the spray nozzle) and at 2.5 m at least from the doors to be protected.
Use at least 4 screw anchors, each able to resist a 25 kg traction when coupled with the material of the wall. For NEBULA12, screw the fixing tray to the wall, in portrait orientation, at least 35 cm away from the left wall (A).
IMPORTANT: make sure that the quick release connector clicks when coupling it; repeat the operation until it clicks. It is mandatory to perform an emission test (chapter 11) after connecting any tank. Several tank models are available. Make sure you ordered the one that is compatible with your fog system: NEBULA12: SFNEB1.1 NEBULA24: SFNEB1.6...

090060843 - TECHNICAL MANUAL - NEBULA 5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Semi rigid conductors do not need their ends to be soldered to the terminals. 5.1 230 V power supply Connect the device to the mains supply with a permanent cable or with a power supply cable. If using an external power supply cable with a CE standard compliant Schüko plug, have a qualified operator install a socket in an easily accessible position near to where the device has to be mounted.
NEBULA - TECHNICAL MANUAL - 090060843 5.3 Command inputs The M7 M8 M9 M10 terminal blocks host four command inputs, programmable as normally closed, normally open (NA/NO), single or double balancing. Programming can be done by using jumpers S13 to S16 (chapter 6.5) and the web interface (chapter 8.10.1). The default values are recorded in chapters 6.1 and 6.5.
090060843 - TECHNICAL MANUAL - NEBULA 5.4 Inputs with potential difference commands (Open Collector) It is possible to accept DC 12 V commands by setting the S13, S14, S15, S16 selection jumpers and wiring as shown. IMPORTANT: physically connect the GND of the device with the GND of the intrusion detection system. Pay attention to setting the S13, S14, S15, S16 jumpers before connecting a positive 12 V or negative GND command to the inputs of the device.
NEBULA - TECHNICAL MANUAL - 090060843 5.4.3 Negative reference If the Open Collector output of the intrusion detection control unit is negative (GND), move the jumper to the 1–2 position. If the GND reference is available when the intrusion detection system is in alarm (not when idle), select NO (see 8.10.1); If the GND reference is available when the intrusion detection system is idle (not when in alarm), select NC instead.
090060843 - TECHNICAL MANUAL - NEBULA 5.5.1 Connection among several fog generating devices and an intrusion detection system If you need to use several NEBULA devices piloted by the same intrusion detection system or from the same output, multiply the signals with a relay board. Note: R1 = 10 kΩ...
