USER MANUAL DC0103 IFM
Function and features
The DC0103 monitors rotational speeds (mainly with regard to under-speed).
It takes pulses from external pulse pick-ups and switches the output relay depending on the set switch point max ( D_max ) and switch point min ( D_min ).
The output relay
- is energised when the maximum rotational speed is reached
- is de-energised when the speed is below the min. rotational speed.

The unit is equipped with integrated C-Mos components. They can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Thus no components except for push-buttons and connection terminals may be touched.
Setting
| 1 | Set the maximum rotational speed of the machine and keep it constant | LED H10 flashes in time to the input pulses | ||
| 2 | ![]() | Press the push-buttons and hold them until LED H7 flashes | ![]() | |
| 3 | Set the minimum rotational speed of the machine and keep it constant | LED H10 flashes in time to the input pulses | ||
| 4 | Press the push-buttons and hold them until LED H6 flashes | H6●LED H6 is constantly lit and flashes when Dminis stored | ||
| 4 | ![]() | Press the push-buttons and hold them until LED H6 flashes | H6●LED H6 is constantly lit and flashes when Dmin is stored |
| H6 | |
| LED H6 is constantly lit and flashes when Dmin is stored |

D_max must always be greater than D_min !
Operation
Check the safe functioning of the unit.
If operation is correct no special measures need to be taken nor any measures for maintenance and upkeep.
For operation and maintenance of the pulse pick-ups the manufacturer's instructions must be observed.
Accessories
Rotational speed display for service and operation.
You can connect an external display on the terminal block X4 to display the actual rotational speed.
