3: INSTALLATION AND WIRING
Introduction
This chapter describes the methods and precautions for installing and wiring SmartAXIS modules.
Before starting installation and wiring, be sure to read “Safety Precautions” in the beginning of this manual and understand
precautions described under Warning and Caution.
Installation Location
• Turn off the power to the SmartAXIS before starting installation, removal, wiring, maintenance, and inspection of the
SmartAXIS. Failure to turn power off may cause electrical shocks or fire hazard.
• Emergency stop and interlocking circuits must be configured outside the SmartAXIS. If such a circuit is configured
inside the SmartAXIS, failure of the SmartAXIS may cause disorder of the control system, damage, or accidents.
• Special expertise is required to install, wire, program, and operate the SmartAXIS. People without such expertise must
not use the SmartAXIS.
Warning
• Prevent metal fragments and pieces of wire from dropping inside the SmartAXIS housing. Put a cover on the
SmartAXIS modules during installation and wiring. Ingress of such fragments and chips may cause fire hazard,
damage, or malfunction.
• Do not touch the connector pins with your hand. Electrostatic discharge may damage the internal elements.
• When handling the SmartAXIS, take measures to discharge static electricity.
• Keep the SmartAXIS wiring away from motor lines.
Caution
The SmartAXIS is designed to be installed in control panels and similar locations.
Install the SmartAXIS within product specifications.
Avoid use in the environments below, as doing so may cause electric shock, fire, or malfunction:
Places where there is a lot of dust, salt, iron powder, or soot.
Places exposed to direct sunlight.
Places where the SmartAXIS may be exposed to vibration or shock, either directly or indirectly.
Atmospheres of corrosive or flammable gases.
Places where condensation may form.
Places where the SmartAXIS may be directly exposed to water.
Around high-voltage lines, high-voltage equipment, motor lines, or motor equipment.
Places near where a large switching surge may occur.
Places subject to a strong magnetic or electrical field.
Always mount the SmartAXIS vertically as shown below. To provide ample ventilation, ensure that there is sufficient space
between the SmartAXIS and other devices, heat sources, and panel surfaces.
