8.2. C1000 Series Controller TB1 Connections
External connections made to terminal block TB1 are described in the following paragraphs.
8.2.1. Emergency Stop
At least one emergency stop device must be connected to the microturbine to
enable averting actual or impending danger. When installed at a facility, the
emergency stop device must be clearly identifiable, clearly visible, and quickly
accessible.
For CE-compliant installations, the disconnect device must be IEC approved and
installed at an approved height.
At least one emergency stop device must be connected to the microturbine to enable averting
actual or impending danger. When installed at a facility, the emergency stop device must be
clearly identifiable, clearly visible, and quickly accessible.
8.2.1.1. E-Stop Requirements
The emergency stop device must have direct opening operation per IEC 60947-5-1, and must be
one of the following types:
Push-button operated switch with palm or mushroom head
Pull-cord operated switch
Pedal operated switch without a mechanical guard
The color of the device actuator must be red. If there is any background immediately around the
actuator, the color of the background must be yellow.
The performance characteristics must be as follows:
The device must stop the microturbine as quickly as possible without creating additional
risks.
Where necessary, the device must trigger or permit the triggering of certain safeguard
movements.
After a stop command, once active operation of the device has ceased, the stop command
must be sustained by engagement of the device until that engagement is specifically
overridden.
It must not be possible to engage the device without triggering a stop command.
The device must be disengaged only by an appropriate operation; and disengaging the
device must not restart the microturbine but only permit restarting.
Always refer to the latest national and local codes relative to your location to determine the proper
connection requirements. Refer to the C1000S/C800S/C600S Technical Reference (Table 1) for
details about E-Stop operation.
