Emos FHT 9999 - Energy Consumption Meter Manual

Description of equipment

Energy Meter FHT 9999 enables to read, measure and follow up consumption of electric energy of electric appliances, calculate cost of energy and register time of connection of the appliances to the meter in a transparent manner. Actual values metered are displayed on a LCD display. The equipment can easily be plugged in an electric socket of public electric network of 230 VAC/50 Hz and then connect to it a particular electric appliance for monitoring. It is possible to measure electric input of all appliances with the input ranging from 5W up to as much as 3680 W. Monitoring input below and above the specified range of the meter is not possible. In case of an overload of the meter damage of the meter may occur. The overload is indicated by flashing data on active input on the display (e.g. 4100W)!

To calculate actual costs it is necessary to manually load into the meter as many as two values of actual tariffs for energy consumption. Despite the meter being very precise it is not suitable for official metering of energy consumption.

The Energy Meter FHT 9999 has been tested and it complies with European and national standard requirements in force. Uniformity of the product has been proved; relevant statements and documentation are filed by the manufacturer of this product.

As a user of the meter you are obliged to ensure safe operation of the equipment and therefore observe the instructions and warnings included in this Operating Manual.

Connection, set up and operation of the meter

Plug the meter into an electric socket and do not connect any appliance; after 5 minutes the inside backup battery will be charged up and display will show data. Now it is necessary to set up current tariff. For more information see instructions under A and C. Note: battery requires 12 hours for full charging.

1. Setting up time and day of week
   
   Press and hold push button „+"and „-", until a digit starts flashing on the display.
   1. Set up required data using button „+"or „-"; by push button you add or detract numbers from 0 to 9.
   2. Press push button „MODE"to set up the next data.
   3. Repeat step 2 and 3 until you set the day of a week.
      Mon – Monday, Tue – Tuesday, Wed – Wednesday, Thu - Thursday, Fri – Friday, Sat – Saturday, Sun – Sunday
   4. Press push button „MODE", the system logs in setting up current tariff 1.
2. Setting up current tariff 1
   
   Using push buttons „+" or „-" set up required time of tariff 1; by push button you add or detract numbers from 0 to 9.
   1. Press push button „MODE"to set up the next data.
   2. Set up required value of tariff 1 (cost of kWh per hour).
   3. Press push button „MODE"to set up the next value.
   4. Press push button „MODE", the system logs in setting up current tariff 2.
3. Setting up current tariff 2
   
   Using push buttons „+" or „-" set up required time of tariff 2; by push button you add or detract numbers from 0 to 9.
   1. Press push button „MODE"to set up the next position.
   2. Set up required value of tariff 2 (cost of kWh per hour).
   3. Repeat step 2 to move to the next position.
   4. To save the settings do not press any button for a period of 5 seconds.
   5. Press push button „MODE". Settings are saved.
4. By synchronous pressing push buttons „MODE" and buttons „+" „-" for 5 seconds all data will be erased (actual time and day in week will not be erased).

Display reading

There are three display modes available. Use push button „MODE"to move to a particular display mode.

1. display mode – actual time, active power, costs, week days
   
2. display mode – total time recorded, energy consumption in kWh, cost
   
3. display mode – total time recorded, period of energy consumption, percentage
   

Safety instructions

• Connect and use Energy Meter only with electric network of 230 V AC/ 50 Hz (±10% - 16A) voltage equipped with a ground contact in accordance with electric regulations in force.
• Only electric appliances power supplied and connected to voltage of 230 V AC / 50 Hz may be connected to the Energy Meter.
• Read carefully information on a type label of electric appliances being connected to the Energy Meter.
• Maximum input of electric appliances connected to the equipment must not exceed the limit of 3680 W (max. current 16 A).
• Energy Meter may only be operated in enclosed rooms and dry conditions. It is strictly forbidden to use the Energy Meter outdoor!
• Any use of the equipment other than specified in the above articles of this Manual results in damage of the equipment and is linked to causing risks such as short circuit, electric shock etc. The equipment must not be tampered with or altered in any way! It is imperative to observe the safety instructions.
• We do not accept any responsibility for material damages or damages to persons caused by inadequate manipulation with the equipment or neglecting instructions and safety warnings in the Operating Manual. In such cases any and all user rights on warranty claims shall extinguish.
• It is essential to take care of the equipment supply ground conductor not to be interrupted – in case of disconnection of the ground conductor a life threatening risk will occur.
• Recommended operating ambient temperature ranges from + 5°C up to + 40°C. Higher temperatures, especially when conducting measurement of a big appliance will result in risk of overheating thereby in permanent damage and destruction of the Energy Meter.
• It is necessary to prevent operation of the equipment in adverse environment such as flammable gases, vapors and dust.
• For safety reasons never use wet equipment and do not operate it in damp environment. When cleaning or maintaining the equipment it must be at any circumstances disconnected from incoming working voltage.
