If you have connected a socket panel then it is a good idea to number the individual
sockets appropriately with a waterproof pen or adhesive labels.

Fig. 3: The switch-socket panel
The switch-socket panels must be located
protected from water
. Under no circumstances
whatsoever are they to be allowed to come into contact with water. Therefore the best
place for them is above the water-line.
4.3.1 The switch-socket panel
The total power output of a switch-socket panel must
not exceed 2300W.
However,
this
output can be drawn from a single socket.
Under no circumstances whatsoever are more than one HQI and/or HQL lamps to
be run on a single socket as otherwise the socket’s electronics may be severely
damaged.
4.3.2 The variable-output switch-socket panel
Please observe that this panel has been developed for light- and current simulation.
Generally
, appliances that can be operated with phase angle control (thyristor) can be
connected to this panel. The output is
limited to
250 W per socket.
If you are not certain
if you can run a particular appliance on this panel please contact your dealer or appliance
manufacturer for advice. If you require a simple on/off function (e. g. for solenoid-operated
valve, heating, HQI lighting etc.) than you should use a non-controllable panel as
described in 4.3.1.
If you attempt to control the output of a non-variable appliance you run the risk of
destroying the appliance as well as the panel!
The following can be “dimmed” without any problems:
·
Lightbulbs
·
Asynchronous current pumps such as the
iks aquastar turbo
·
Halogen lamps which have a thyristor-controllable transformer
·
Fluorescent tubes with special ballast units whose output can be varied with phase
angle control (thyristor).
The following are unsuitable:
·
HQI/HQL lamps (these are not to be connected under any circumstances)
·
Normal fluorescent tubes
·
Solenoid-operated valves
·
iks dosing pumps Vario LP180 and Vario MP045
·
pumps with synchronous motors
