2 General Safety LEAB Automotive GmbH
2.1 Intended Use
The MelfBox is a vehicle electrical supply system.
The system is designed to operate with a nominal voltage of 230 V (+/- 10%). The
IP55 rating protects it against the ingress of dust in damaging quantities and
against water jets.
2.2 Foreseeable Misuse
Only use the system within the specified voltage limits of 230V (+/- 10%).
Do not point a high-pressure cleaner or other devices directly at the system when
cleaning the vehicle.
3 About this Product
The MelfBox is a vehicle electrical supply system. It has a potential-free switching
contact (normally open contact) to create an immobiliser. An electronic system
prevents contact erosion. The operating display provides information about the
current system status.

TIP
To ensure perfect operation, observe the following notes on the
assembly site:
1. Choose a vertical surface.
2. Choose a site with minimum dust and which is protected from jet
water.
3. Make sure that there is sufficient space at the assembly site.
Fig.2: MelfBox dimensions
To create the body cutout, proceed as follows:
1. Saw a hole (Ø 55 mm) in the vehicle body.
2. To prevent corrosion, seal the cut surfaces.
ðThe body cutout is now created.

6 Installation
Preparation
Before connecting the unit, proceed as follows:
CAUTION!Install a suitable fuse in the vehicle (up to 16 A).
1. Route a connection cable (H07RN-F, 3 x 2.5) in the vehicle.
2. Attach the connection cable to the vehicle installation.
3. Optional: Route a cable (H05RN-F, 2 x 0.5) for the immobiliser in the vehicle
and connect it to the specific vehicle installation (control module or similar).
ðThe unit is now ready to be connected.
Connecting the Supply Unit
To connect the device, proceed as follows:
4. Pierce the housing seal at the intended location with a
pointed tool.
5. Feed the connection cable (H07RN-F, 3 x 2.5) through the
hole.
6. Connect the wires of the connection cable to the corres-
ponding screw terminals.
ðThe device is connected.
Optional: Connecting the Immobiliser
TIP
The MelfBox has a potential-free switching contact (normally open
contact) to create an immobiliser.
The design of the immobiliser depends on the vehicle. Inquire from
your vehicle manufacturer.

6 Installation LEAB Automotive GmbH
To connect the immobiliser, proceed as follows:
CAUTION!Install a suitable fuse in the vehicle (up to 1 A).
7. Insert the immobiliser cable (H05RN-F, 2 x 0.5) through the second hole of the
housing seal.
8. Insert the wires of the immobiliser cable into the push-in terminals (max. cur-
rent: 1 A).
ðThe immobiliser is connected.
TIP
To protect the contacts of the immobiliser, their cable is connected to
the MelfBox via a Phoenix plug.
1. Before disassembling the MelfBox, disconnect the Phoenix plug
of the immobiliser cable above the connection terminals.
7 Assembly
To install the device, proceed as follows:
üThe cables in the MelfBox housing are correctly connected.
üThe body seal is firmly seated on the housing.
1. Place the housing seal in the cap.
2. Attach the cap to the supply unit with the 3 screws (3.5 x 14).
3. Check the tightness of the housing seal.
4. Push the supply unit into the body cutout.
5. Tighten the 3 screws on the front until the supply unit is
firmly seated in the body cutout (maximum torque:1Nm).
6. Attach the cover.
ðThe device is mounted and ready.

8 Operation
Notice
Inactive immobilisers can cause damage
Note that immobiliser only works when the MelfBox is active
(operating display illuminated).
TIP
Electronics to prevent contact burnout requires voltage
Contact N is electronically switched and is only open when a 230 V
voltage is applied.
To install the device, proceed as follows:
1. Plug the two-pin earthed plug of the connection cable into a 230-V mains sup-
ply.
2. Open the flap of the supply unit.
3. Plug the coupling into the supply unit.
