General
Use grounding terminals.
The “-“terminal of the battery has to be properly grounded.
Cables for binary inputs and analogue inputs must not be placed along power cables.
Analogue inputs should use shielded cables, especially when length >3m.
Always use shielded cable for Magnetic pick-up.
Power supply
Use min. power supply cable of 4mm
2
Maximum continuous DC power supply voltage is 36VDC. Maximum short term allowable power
supply voltage is 39VDC. The ECON’s power supply terminals are protected against large pulse
power disturbances. When there is a potential risk of the controller being subjected to conditions
outside its capabilities, an outside protection device should be used.
Power supply fusing
An eight-amp fuse should be connected in-line with the battery positive terminal to the controller and
modules. ECON-4 should never be connected directly to the starting battery.
Recommended fuse is slow type – T8A.
Grounding
Use as short as possible cable to the grounding point on the switchboard
Use cable min. 2,5mm
