•  Minimal mechanical vibrations
  Install the GX/GP in a location that has minimal 
mechanical vibrations. Installing the GX/GP 
in a location that is subject to large levels of 
mechanical vibration will not only put added stress 
on its components, it may also impede ordinary 
measurement.
•  Level Location
  Install the GX/GP in a level location so that it is not 
slanted to the left or the right (however, the GX/GP 
can be inclined up to 30 degrees backward for panel 
mounting).
Note
Condensation may form when moving the GX/GP from 
a low temperature or humidity environment to a high 
temperature or humidity environment, or when there is a 
sudden change in temperature. Temperature or humidity 
changes may also result in thermocouple measurement 
errors. In these kinds of circumstances, wait for at least 
an hour before using the GX/GP, to acclimate it to the 
surrounding environment.
The GP20 may tip over if it is tilted more than 10 
degrees, front and back.
Do Not Install the Instrument in the Following Places
•  Outdoors
•  In direct sunlight or near heat sources
  Install the GX/GP in a place that is near room 
temperature (23°C) and that is not subject to large 
temperature fluctuations. Placing the GX/GP in direct 
sunlight or near heat sources can cause adverse 
effects on the internal circuitry.
•  Where an excessive amount of soot, steam, moisture, 
dust, or corrosive gases are present  
Soot, steam, moisture, dust, and corrosive gases will 
adversely affect the GX/GP. Avoid installing the GX/GP 
in such locations.
•  Near strong magnetic field sources
  Do not bring magnets or instruments that produce 
electromagnetic fields close to the GX/GP. Operating 
the GX/GP near strong magnetic fields can cause 
measurement errors.
•  Where the display Is difficult to see
  The GX/GP uses an LCD screen, so it is difficult to 
view the display from an extreme angle. Install the GX/
GP so that the user can view the display directly from 
the front.
Installation and Wiring
Installation Location
Install the GX/GP indoors in an environment that 
meets the following conditions:
•  If hazardous external voltage (30 V AC or 60 V DC or 
more) is applied to the output terminals of the GP10/
GP20/GX60, be sure to install it in a location where 
people cannot touch the terminals carelessly or in a 
panel.
•  The GX10/GX20 is designed to be installed in an 
instrumentation panel.
•  This product is designed as open equipment under the 
CSA/UL/EN 61010-2-201 standards. In order to comply 
with these standards, install it as follows: 
  •  The GX10/GX20 is designed to be installed in an 
instrumentation panel. 
Install it in a location where people cannot touch the 
terminals carelessly.
  •  To make the GP10/GP20 comply with the relevant 
standard, support the parts of the device other than 
the front-panel control area with an instrumentation 
panel or the like, and install it in a location where 
people cannot touch the terminals carelessly or in a 
panel.
  • Install the GX60/GM unit in a panel with a door.
  •  The instrumentation panel or panel used for support 
must comply with CSA/UL/EN 61010-2-201 or must 
be at least IP1X (degrees of protection) and at least 
IK09.
To make panel door lock for GX10/GX20  
or install the GP/GX60 systems in a 
panel with a door or in a location where 
operator or any third person can not 
operate the power switch carelessly.
When the power switch of GX/GP 
systems under operation be turned on or 
off carelessly , it may result the system 
down or injury.
Careless operations can be avoided by 
applying the slide lock.
•  Well-ventilated location
  To prevent overheating, install the GX/GP in a well-
ventilated location. For the panel cut dimensions when 
arranging multiple GXs, see the next page. When 
other instruments are installed next to the GX, follow 
the panel cut dimensions to provide adequate space 
around the GX. In the case of the portable type, we 
recommend that you provide at least 50 mm of space 
from the left, right, and top panels.
