IMPORTANT!
- The device must be disconnected from its power supply sources (power supply and measurement) before undertaking any installation, repair or handling operations on the device’s connections. Contact the after-sales service if you suspect that there is an operational fault in the device. The device has been designed for easy replacement in case of malfunction.
- The manufacturer of the device is not responsible for any damage resulting from failure by the user or installer to heed the warnings and/or recommendations set out in this manual, nor for damage resulting from the use of non-original products or accessories or those made by other manufacturers.
DESCRIPTION
The COMPACT DC-S MINI concentrator manages and reads single and three-phase energy meters with PRIME communications connected to the same low voltage network.
The COMPACT DC-S MINI concentrator is typically installed in the transformer substation and enables telemanagement of the energy meters, whether by reading the information they supply or by executing actions that this type of device can execute, such as modifying tariffs, activating the circuit breaker, etc.
The device features PLC PRIME communications, an Ethernet port.
The device is configured via a web server.

INSTALLATION
The COMPACT DC-S MINI is designed to be assembled on a DIN rail (IEC 60715), with standard fixing points for being fixed to the rail.
IMPORTANT!
- Take into account that when the device is connected, the terminals may be hazardous to the touch, and opening the covers or removing elements may provide access to parts that are dangerous to the touch. Do not use the device until it is fully installed.
- To connect the device, always start by connecting the neutral before the phases and to disconnect it, firstly remove the phases and then the neutral. Otherwise, the device could be damaged if there is voltage present during this process.
Attention: all the terminals must be fixed with side set screws to avoid false contacts.
