Page 2: General Information
1. GENERAL INFORMATION Please read carefully and follow the instructions detailed in this manual. Keep the manual for use and future maintenance. 2. TABLE OF TECHNICAL DATA AND MARK The CE mark certifies that the anemometer conforms to the essential health and safety requirements laid down by European product directives. The CE mark can be identified by the relevant adhesive label applied to the outside of the product, on which are shown some of the data shown in the following table: Power supply: 230 Vac 50-60Hz 4,5W max. Relay contact: N.A. 5 A 30 Vdc; 5 A 250 Vac Operating temperature: -10 / 70°C Packaging dimensions: 240x185x110 mm. Container: PC+ABS UL 94V-0 ( IP54 ) The sensor essentially consists of a sensitive surface which is able to detect the presence of water. In order to prevent condensation from building up and to facilitate evaporation, this surface is heated using an integrated heating element which is activated as necessary. The heating of the sensitive surface should therefore be considered normal. The condition of the sensor is monitored through the activation of two LEDs: Reference Led Led off Led on R HEAT Heating off Heating on RAIN No precipitation precipitation detected The output contact is activated depending on the information detected by the sensor, in accordance with one of the modes selected by the user though the SW1 dip switch: Monostable Time 1 sec Time 3 min... -

MONOSTABLE: the sensor is supplied in this mode by default. The output contact is closed when rain begins to fall and is opened when the surface of the sensor is dry. TIME 1 SEC.: the output contact is closed when it begins to rain and remains closed for 1 second. This mode may be used, for example, when the rain sensor is connected to a device which only requires a command message. TIME 3 MIN.: the output contact is closed when it begins to rain and remains closed for 3 minutes. This mode may be used, for example, when the rain sensor is connected to a device which requires a temporary command message. TIME 12 HOURS: the output contact is closed when it begins to rain and remains closed for 12 hours from the moment at which the rain started to fall. This mode may be used, for example, when the rain sensor is connected to an automated irrigation device. 3. ELECTRICAL WIRING CN1: INPUT L: 230 Vac line input (Phase).

Page 4: Installation
4. INSTALLATION CAUTION: the rain sensor begins to operate normally approximately one minute after it has been connected to the electricity network. This period of time enables the sensor to reach the required temperature. FOR THE INSTALLER – IMPORTANT - The New Rain gauge must be permanently connected to the power supply network and is not equipped with any type of 230 Vac electric line sectioning device. The installer is responsible for installing a sectio- ning device in the system. An omnipolar switch with overheating category III must be installed. It must be positioned in such a way that it is protected against accidental closures. - For connections (power supply and outlet contact) we recommend the use of flexible wires with an insula- ting sheath in harmonised polychloroprene (H05RN-F). The wires should have a minimum cross-section of 0.75 mm - Fasten the connection cables using the cable clamp supplied with the product kit. - Handle the sensor with care during the assembly process and make sure that all components are properly assembled. Pay particular attention to the ceramic plate and the flat connection cable. When closing the box again, it must fold back on itself normally. - It is very important to establish an exact location so that the product is exposed to rain. - Fix the device to the wall using the screws and rawlplugs supplied with the product, in the correct position (see figures 1-2, page 6). - Make sure that the sensor remains tilted at approximately 45 degrees (Fixing area at the top, round end of the box at the bottom). - Do not paint or varnish the sensitive surface of the sensor. - The dirt which accumulates on the surface of the sensor restricts its sensitivity: we therefore recommend that it is cleaned once or twice a year using a damp cloth, after the electricity supply has been disconnected. - All operations requiring the opening of the casing (such as installation, programming and repair, etc.) must be carried out by skilled professionals only. -

5. PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT The anemometer contain pollutant elements, must be disposed of in accordance with environmental regulations (Fratelli Comunello S.p.A. advise to use a specific disposal system). 6. GUARANTEE a) In business relationships or in case of products sold for professional use, this warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of product parts that FRATELLI COMUNELLO SPA acknowledges as defective, through equivalent re-manufactured Products (the "Conventional Warranty"); the warranty does not include the costs necessary for repairing or replacing the material (e.g. labour costs, rental of equipment etc). b) The provisions contained in articles 1490 to 1495 of the Italian Civil Code shall not apply. c) FRATELLI COMUNELLO SPA warrants the proper operation of the products within the limits indicated in a) above. Unless otherwise agreed, the validity of the Conventional Warranty is 36 (thirty-six) months from the production date, which can be found on the products. The Warranty shall be effective and binding on COMUNELLO only if the product has been correctly installed and maintained in accordance with the... - Page 7 f) The Customer cannot claim compensation for indirect damage, loss of profits, loss of production and in any case it cannot claim compensation for an amount that exceeds the value of the supplied components or products. All transport costs for Products that have been repaired or to be repaired, although covered by the Conventional Warranty, shall be charged to the Customer. g) No external work carried out by Comunello technical staff is covered by the Conventional Warranty. h) Specific amendments to the Conventional Warranty conditions described herein can be defined by the parties in their commercial contracts. i) The Court of Vicenza (Italy) shall be the place of jurisdiction for any dispute which will be settled according to the Italian laws.
