1 BASIC INSTRUCTIONS. This manual assists in the installation and use of the "LEAK-METER" program, designed for the AR5 series analyzer. The operation of the networks analyze with program “LEAK-METER” allows the detection and analysis, of the leakage current in the installations.

1.1 CHECKS ON RECEIPT. On receipt of your order check the following:

1. The material received corresponds to the specifications in your order. 2. Check that the material received has not been damaged during delivery. 3. Check that the following accessories have been received:

• 1 Programming cartridges for the analyzer setting with the required program.

• 1 Programming cartridges for the analyzer with the coprocessor program.

• 1 Instruction manual.

• 1 measuring module.

• 1 connection wire to connect the measuring module to the analyzer.

1.2 SAFETY ADVICE. For the safe use of the analyzer it is fundamental that the people who install it or manipulate, follow the usual safety measures, as well as the different warnings indicated in manual saying.

1.3 CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS. Before connecting the equipment, check the following:

1. Power supply voltage: from external supply.

• Mains input 100 V AC. - 240 V AC.

• Supplier output to AR5/AR5-L 12 V DC. 2. Mains frequency

• 45...65 Hz. 3. Maximum current in the voltage measurement circuit:

• 500 V AC. phase-neutral.

2 ANALYZER START-UP.

2.1 NEW PROGRAM RECORDING PROCEDURE. The analyzer has an internal memory to store different programs. Once these programs have been loaded, the equipment can be used as: Standard analyzer, display of the data stored, harmonic analyzer, disturbance logger ... Before starting this process, ensure that the equipment is supplied from a supplier. To load this program, the following procedure has to be followed:

1. Switch off the equipment 2. Connect the program cartridge to the cartridge port located on the

supplier. 3. Switch on the equipment.

4. With [5555] and [6666] keys select the loading program option (LOAD PROGRAM). Press [ENTER] or wait for a few moments to confirm that this is the required operation.

5. Select where the program is to be stored. An empty position is marked as EMPTY PROGRAM. If a position is selected where there is already a program such as Harmonics, the program will be replaced

6. The analyzer will test to check if the cartridge has been connected. 7. If it detects that a cartridge has been connected, it will proceed with

loading the program. The process ends when LOAD OK appears on the screen.

8. Once the program is loaded, reset the equipment clicking on OFF. 9. If no cartridge is detected or there has been any error with the program

loading process, reset the equipment and try again.

One single loader will be operational with the Analyzer once the program has been loaded for the first time. Input the equipment series number into the loader

5

2.2 WORKING PROGRAM SELECTION. The equipment can store different operating programs in its memory. The required program is chosen on start up. Switch on the equipment.

1. A list of available programs will appear on the screen.

2. Use the [5555] and [6666] keys to select the program the analyzer will use. 3. Press [ENTER] or wait for a few moments to confirm that this is the

required operation.

3 PRESENTATION OF DATA ON THE DISPLAY. The PROGRAM Leak-Meter has different screens to program the data to be displayed and subsequently shown on the screen.

3.1 DATA SCREEN The first screen allows to visualize the measured voltage, the earth leakage current and the maximum value of this that has been detected.

3.3.1 Filter activation.

The module has built-in a lowpass filter, that allows to discard the leakage currents of high frequency, very frequent in the facilities. In order to activate or to deactivate the filter it must press key ENTER and will appear the indication FILTER in the inferior part of display.

4 MEASURING MODULE CONNECTION. The measuring module allows measuring the leakage current in the main. It has connectors to connect the CF’s clamps, and also allows to connect the protection transformer that already maybe exist in the installation, using a connection cable, which can be the same one that are used to measure the voltage. With the also two plugs are supplied, to connect the cable to the connection terminals of the transformer. The module also has a DB-9 connector to be connected to entrance AUX of AR5/AR-L and IL1 (black connector)

Once the module it’s connected and the analyzer recognizes it, it will appear an indication in the inferior part of the screen.

The analyzer will then inquiry for a password that consists of a key sequence to be pressed (the user has 15 seconds to press this sequence). If the default password has not been modified, then the following key sequence must be followed:

PASSWORD

[3] [SET] [5] [SET]

Once this password is entered, the analyzer will permit the user to modify any Setup parameters. All programs have an independent setup, therefore, the setup must be always check to ensure a proper operation, since any modification will only affect the active operation program. If any parameter has been changed, when you exit from SETUP, it ask for save the new configuration or exit without save the changes.

< Yes > < > No

• <Yes>: Save the changes and exit.

• <No>: Exit from SETUP without save the changes.

• Select one option with keys [6] & [5].

• To access any menu option use [8] or [ENTER].

• To close the menu press [3] or [ESC]. If this key is used when only the main menu is open, this is closed. If any modification over any setup parameter was done, before closing a confirmation of setup change is requested on display.

5.1 SETUP MENU. The analyzer can be user-configured to different performances involving its data analysis and recording modes, as it is followed shown:

5.1.1 SETUP MENU.

This option allows setting the conditions of analyzer, in particular the connection type and the transformer relation of voltage and currents, among others.

6 ANALYZER COMMUNICATIONS. To connection to PC of the analyzer must be done through the power supplier set, which will be necessary connected to the main. Perform the connection using the two wires factory-delivered with the analyzer. One cable will link the analyzer to the power supplier set, and another cable is a standard RS232 connector When starting communication tasks take into account:

• Communication parameters of the analyzer and the PC must fully coincide.

• The power supplier set must be plugged into.

• The analyzer cannot be into the setup menu. CIRCUTOR has a software package that permits the user to retrieve stored data in the analyzer to PC for a further complete analysis.

7 SAFETY WARNINGS.

The user should take into account all installation instructions referred in sections INSTALLATION AND START-UP, Connection instructions and TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS of the analyzer. Note that with the instrument powered on, the terminals could be

dangerous to touching, and cover opening or elements removal actions may allow accessing dangerous parts. The analyzer has been designed and tested to meet IEC 348 standard and is factory-shipped in proper conditions.

8 MAINTENANCE. The analyzer does not require any special maintenance. No adjustment, maintenance or repairing actions should be done over the instrument open and, should those are essential, high-qualified operators must perform them. Spares should be provided by manufacturer. The batteries are rechargeable and should be provided by manufacturer.

Before any adjustment, replacement, maintenance or repairing operation is carried out, the instrument must be disconnected from any power supply source.

When any protection failure is suspected to exist, the instrument must be immediately put out of service. The own instrument design permits a quick replacement in case of damage. Occasionally clean the equipment with water and detergent using a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents. Completely dry the equipment before using it again.
