2-3-5  Cables
1)  Selection and conditions of cables
The criteria for selection and the conditions of cables for wiring are described below.
•  We recommend using 600-V plastic insulated sheath electric wire CVV (JIS C 3401 by 
Japanese Industrial Standards) for control with a conductive cross-section of 1.25 mm
2
 
or a stranded cable with equivalent or higher performance.
•  When routing cable in a place subject to electromagnetic noise, use shielded wire 
CVVS (JCS 4258 by the Japanese Electric Wire & Cable Makers’ Association) and 
metal conduits.
•  Select a sheath material that withstands the cable installation environment (including 
the ambient temperature, corrosive gas, and corrosive liquid).
•  Use cable with an outside diameter of 7 to 12 mm. When using a pressure-resistant 
packing cable adapter, be sure to use packing appropriate for the outside diameter of 
the cable.
•  A crimping terminal with insulated sleeve (for M4 screw) is recommended for terminals.
•  The maximum permissible cable length is 1500 m.
2)  Cable installation
Comply with the following when installing cables between this device and the actuator.
•  Avoid installing cables near devices that generate noise such as large capacity 
transformers, motors, or driving power sources.
•  Do not install cables in the same tray or duct with other driving power cables.
•  We recommend the use of electrical metal conduits and ducts to prevent water and 
mechanical damage to electrical lines. Also, always use water-tight glands at conduit 
connection ports.
•  Use electrical metal conduits and ducts for locations exposed to electromagnetic noise.
•  When using shielded cable, the cable must be connected to a single point ground on 
the DCS side.
