 VOTE OF THANKS
Thank you for your trustworthy and select of PLOT air compressor controller !

Shenzhen Plot Electronic Co., Ltd specializes on the manufacture and R&D of air

compressor controller. We are devoted to win customer trust through our high

quality products and service.

We try our best to ensure the completeness and correctness of the manual, but

PLOT Company shall reserve the rights for continuous research and improvement on

its products and assume no obligation for the modification and improvement on the

previously delivered products. The design of products is subject to the change

without notice.

 NOTICE

Please read all the operation manual before operating the set and keep this manual for further
reference.

Installation of MAM—KY** compressor controller can be performed only by professional technicians.

Installation position shall be considered carefully in order to ensure good ventilation and reduce
electromagnetic interference.

Wiring shall be performed respectively according to regulations for heavy and weak current to reduce
electromagnetic interference.

RC snubber must be connected to the two terminals of coil (such as AC contactor ,valve, etc),which
are controlled by relay output.

Port connection shall be inspected carefully before power on.

Correct ground connection (the third ground)can help increase product capacity of resisting signal
interference.

Set rated current of motor: the max current of motor/1.2.

Features：
● Chinese / English display.
● Short circuit, current block, current open phase, current overload, current unbalance protection for motor
● On-off control and running control of motor.
● Prevention for air compressor reversal
● Temperature measurement , control and protection
● Control pressure balance by adjust load rate automatically
● High integration , high reliability ,high cost performance.
● Remote control/Local control.
● Block mode/Independent mode.
● RS-485 communication function,
