Elimko E-96P Series Universal Advanced Digital Controllers Quick Start Guide

1. Description

The Elimko E-96P Series are industrial digital process controllers designed for panel mounting, featuring 96x96 mm dimensions (IEC/TR 60668). They utilize new-generation microcontrollers and support On/Off, PID, Heat/Cool, and Floating control modes. Inputs and outputs are user-programmable. The controllers feature two 4-digit displays showing set and measured values from -1999 to 9999, and support general-purpose inputs (T/C, R/T, mV, mA).

2. Dimensions and Panel Cut-Out

The controller has external dimensions of 96 mm (Length) x 96 mm (Height) x 100 mm (Width). The required panel cut-out is 92 mm x 92 mm. Minimum spacing recommendations are 35 mm (depth) and 10 mm around the panel cut-out.

The front panel features two 4-digit displays, indicator LEDs (SET, PR, MN), and control buttons (SET, R1, R2, R3, R4).

3. Connection Diagram

The connection diagram illustrates terminal assignments. Key connections include:

• Operating Voltage: Terminals for AC or DC power input.
• Relay and SSR Outputs: Terminals for Relay 1 (RL1), Relay 2 (RL2), SSR 1 (SSR1), and SSR 2 (SSR2). Outputs can be selected as relays (SPST-NO, 250V AC 5A) or SSR drives (24V DC 25mA).
• Analog Outputs: Terminals AO1 and AO2, configurable for 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, or 0-10 V DC.
• Analog Inputs: Terminals for Analog Input 1 and Analog Input 2, supporting various sensor types (Thermocouple, Resistance Thermometer, Current, Voltage) and an external setpoint input (mA).
• Digital Inputs: Terminals DI1, DI2, DI3, and COM for connecting dry contact inputs.
• RS-485 Communication: Terminals TRX+, TRX-, and GND for serial communication.
• Valve Feedback: Terminals for potentiometer (1-5 kOhm) or mA (0-20 / 4-20 mA) feedback.

4. Warnings

The E-96P controller is designed for panel mounting and industrial environments. Ensure the following:

• Check package contents upon receipt. Contact vendor for missing or defective items.
• Read the user manual thoroughly before installation and operation.
• Installation and configuration must be performed by qualified personnel.
• Keep away from flammable gases that could cause explosions.
• Clean only with a damp, well-squeezed cloth; avoid alcohol or solvents.
• Not for medical applications.
• Ensure the correct operating voltage is applied.

EU Directive Compliance: Low Voltage Directive EN 61010-1, EMC Directive EN 61326-1.

Quality Certification: TS EN ISO 9001, K-Q TSE-ISO-EN 9000.

5. Type Coding

The E-96P controller is identified by a coding system (E-96P - W - X - Y - Z) where each position defines specific features:

• 2: 2 x 0-20 / 4-20 mA (AO1, AO2)
• 3: 1 x 0-10 V DC (AO1)
• 4: 2 x 0-10 V DC (AO1, AO2)
• 5: 1 x 0-20 / 4-20 mA (AO1) + 1 x 0-10 V DC (AO2)

Operating Voltage (Z)

• 0: 85-265 V AC / 85-375 V DC
• 1: 20-60 V AC / 20-60 V DC

*Analog outputs are isolated from each other. **For RS-485 communication, the E-IB-11 USB-RS485 converter can be used for PC connection. Elimko provides various control and monitoring software.
