• Complete control of R-BUS(x) back plane
• ETHERCAT interface, CAN over ETHERCAT protocol
• Power supply of backplane
2 • INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
This section contains the instructions necessary for correct
installation of the GILOGIK II into the machine control panel
or the host system and for correct connection of the system
power supply, inputs, outputs and interfaces.
Before proceeding with installation read the following
warnings carefully!
Remember that lack of observation of these warnings
could lead to problems of electrical safety and electromag-
netic compatibility, as well as invalidating the warranty.
Qualified staff
The installation and use of the system and components are only re-
served at qualified staff.
Conform use
the system and relative components are usable exclusively to the use
previewed in the manual In order to guarantee a correct and sure
operation are indispensable that the product comes transported, stored
correctly, installed, and controlled second the previewed modalities.
Suitable for use in pollution degree 2 environment.
Open type equipment.
Electrical power supply
• the GILOGIK II is NOT equipped with an On/Off switch: the user
must provide a two-phase disconnecting switch that conforms to the
required safety standards (CE marking), to cut off the power supply
upstream of the system. The switch must be located in the vicinity of
the system and must be within easy reach of the operator.
One switch may control more than one systems.
• To make sure that the system very is connected to earth as indicated
in the “Module power supply” section.
• if the system is used in applications with risk of damage to persons,
machinery or materials, it is essential to connect it up to auxiliary
security equipment. It is advisable to make sure that alarm signals are
also triggered during normal operation.
The dispositif must NOT be installed in flammable or explosive
environments; it may be connected to equipment operating in such
atmospheres only by means of appropriate and adequate types of
interface, conforming to the applicable safety standards.
Notes Concerning Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic
Compatibility:
CE MARKING: EMC Conformity (electromagnetic compatibility)
• Compliance with Directive 2014/30/EU
EN61131-2: Programmable controllers
Part 2: Equipment requirements and tests.
The GILOGIK II system is mainly designed to operate in industrial
environments, installed on the switchboards or control panels of pro-
ductive process machines or plants.
The Declaration of conformity is available on GEFRAN web:www.
gefran. com
• UL listed standard: UL508 file E198546.
Module power supply
• Supply with class 2 device
• The power supply to the modules on the switchboards must always
come directly from an isolation device with a fuse.
• The electronic instruments and electromechanical power devices such
as relays, contactors, solenoid valves, etc., must always be powered
by separate lines.
• When the power supply is strongly disturbed by the commutation of
transistor or power units or motors, an isolation transformer should be
used, earthing the screen.
• It is essential that the plant has a good earth connection:
- the voltage between neutral and earth must not be > 1V
-theOhmicresistancemustbe<6Ω;
• In the proximity of high frequency generators or arc welders, use
adequate filters.
• The power supply lines must be separate from the instrument input
and output ones.
GEFRAN S.p.A. declines all responsibility for any
damage to persons or property caused by tampering,
neglect, improper use or any use which does not
conform to the characteristics of the controller and
to the indications given in these Instructions for Use.
