Water-resistant Terminals
Section 5-4
Note
1.
A single I/O power supply can be used for input and output. Input devices
may, however, malfunction due to noise generated from output devices.
Therefore, it is recommended to use independent I/O power supplies.

Refer to the
Sensor Catalog
for sensors with connectors and Round Wa-
ter-resistant Connectors (sensor I/O connectors) in detail.
Round Communications
Connector to Water-
resistant Terminals or T-
joints
The communications cable connects to Water-resistant Terminals or T-joints
through a round communications connector. Press the cable connector to the
terminal or joint connector until the cable connector comes in contact with the
bottom end of the cable connector. Tighten the connector screws to the spec-
ified tightening torque (0.39 to 0.49 N
⋅
m).
!Caution
The connector direction varies with the type of Connector Terminal. Check the
connecting direction before inserting the connector.
!Caution
Do not pull or bend the communications cable. Provide some margin when
laying the communications cable. Check that the communications cable is
free of heavy objects, or otherwise the cable may be broken.
Shielded Terminator
Connection
The Shielded Terminator has round communications connector (or shielded
connector). Connect the Shield Terminator to T-joints or the round communi-
cations connectors of communications cable. Press the cable connector to the
terminal or joint connector until the cable connector comes in contact with the
bottom end of the cable connector. Tighten the connector screws to the spec-
ified tightening torque (0.39 to 0.49 N
⋅
m).
!Caution
The connector direction varies with the type of Connector Terminal. Check the
connecting direction before inserting the connector.
