Installation Environment
This product is capable for use in the environment of pollution degree 2
*1
or equivalent.
* 1 Pollution Degree 2 : Environment that may cause non-conductive pollution or transient conductive
pollution by frost (IEC60664-1).
1. Installation Environment
Do not use this product in the following environment.
Location where the surrounding air temperature
exceeds the range of 0 to 40C
Location where condensation occurs due to abrupt
temperature changes
Location where relative humidity exceeds 85%RH
Location exposed to corrosive gases or combustible
gases
Location exposed to significant amount of dust, salt or
iron powder
Location subject to direct vibration or impact
Location exposed to direct sunlight
Location where the product may come in contact with
water, oil or chemical droplets
Environment that blocks the air vent
[Refer to Installation and Noise Elimination]
When using the product in any of the locations specified below, provide a sufficient shield.
Location subject to electrostatic noise
Location where high electrical or magnetic field is present
Location with the mains or power lines passing nearby
2. Storage and Preservation Environment
Storage and preservation environment follows the installation environment. Especially in a long-term storage,
consider to avoid condensation of surrounding air.
Unless specially specified, moisture absorbency protection is not included in the package when the machine is
delivered. In the case that the machine is to be stored in an environment where dew condensation is anticipated, take
the condensation preventive measures from outside of the entire package, or directly after opening the package.
Installation and Noise Elimination
1. Noise Elimination Grounding (Frame Ground)
2. Precautions regarding wiring method
1) Wire is to be twisted for the 24V DC power supply.
2) Separate the signal and encoder lines from the power supply and power
lines.
3. Noise Sources and Elimination
Carry out noise elimination measures for electrical devices on the same
power path and in the same equipment.
The following are examples of measures to eliminate noise sources.
1) AC solenoid valves, magnet switches and relays
[Measure] Install a Surge absorber parallel with the coil.
2) DC solenoid valves, magnet switches and relays
[Measure] Mount the windings and diodes in parallel. Select a diode
built-in type for the DC relay.
4. Cooling Factors and Installation
Design and Build the system considering the size of the controller box, location of the controller and cooling factors to keep
the surrounding temperature around the controller below 40C.
Pay a special attention to the battery unit since the performance of it would drop both in the low and high temperatures.
Keep it in an environment in the room temperature as much as possible. (Approximately 20C is the recommended
temperature.)
For the attachment of the unit, use the fixture holes on the four corners or
attach on the DIN rail. (Attachment should be the same for the absolute
battery box.)
Earth Terminal
Grounding resistance at 100 or less (Class D grounding)
Copper wire: Connect a ground
wire with a diameter of 1.6 mm
(2mm
2
: AWG 14) or larger.
Connect the ground line to the FG
terminal block on the controller
unit.
Put a tool such as a screwdriver
into the square slot and connect
the line.
Do not share the ground wire with or connect
to other equipment. Ground each controller.
