1.1 Foreword to this quick guide
This quick guide serves as a fast introduction for
the installation by trained, experienced specialist
personnel (e.g. mechatronics technician or electri-
cian) and/or specialist personnel with knowledge
involving the installation of electrical devices.
The complete operating manual can be found on
our product website:

Please precisely observe the connection assign-
ment, the minimum and maximum performance
data (see chapter 6. „Technical data“ on page 11)
and the supplementary sheet „Safety instructions
and warranty conditions“.
1.2 Use for the intended purpose
The electric control panels SHEV 3/6 are compact
devices in steel-sheet or plastic housing (optional
variants are shown in the product catalogue) con-
taining power supply, emergency power supply and
the total operating and control electronics for the
operation of 24 VDC-actuators for windows and
smoke exhaust flaps.
SHEV 3/6 control the connected actuators in case
of fire, as well as for daily ventilation. During a pow-
er failure, the emergency power supply ensures the
function of the SHEV-equipment for at least 72
hours. The connection lines for SHEV-emergency
switch, smoke detector, Fire Alarm System (FAS)
and actuators are monitored.
2. Functional description
SHEV 3/6 (Smoke and Heat Exhaust Ventilation)
represent the compact control panel system, main-
ly used in staircases for smoke extraction and daily
ventilation.
It allows the direct connection of following devices
such as:
• smoke detector,
• SHEV-emergency switch,
• fire alarm-signal
and the control of actuators.
The SHEV 3/6 essentially consist of three compo-
nents:
1. power supply
2. emergency power supply
3. control electronics
2.1 Power supply (Tested according to
EN 12101-10)
If the SHEV 3/6 is connected to the mains, it pro-
vides the maximum output via the power supply
(mains-operation).
2.2 Emergency power supply
The emergency power supply of the SHEV 3/6 is
ensured by two 12 V lead batteries.
2.3 Control electronics (Tested according
to prEN 12101-9)
The complete control of the SHEV 3/6 is taken
over by a microcontroller.
2.4 Operating status indicators (OK,
FAULT and ALARM)
The SHEV 3/6 have three operational status indi-
cators on the control board to display the actual op-
eration mode.
• The green LED indicates mains operation.
• The yellow LED serves as status or fault
indicator.
• The red LED indicates alarm.
