Safety Precautions
Refer to the
“Precautions for All Switches”
and
“Precautions for All Safety Door Switches”
.
!
CAUTION
1.
Disconnect the G9SX-NS from the power supply when wiring the
D40A.
1. Turn OFF the load power supply
b
efore wiring. Failure to do so
may cause electric shock.
2. Devices connected to the product may operate unexpectedly.
2.
Do not operate the product in atmospheres containing flamma
b
le
or explosive gas. Arcs or heating of relays during switching may
cause fire or explosion.
3
.
Wire conductors correctly and verify the operation of the product
b
efore using the system in which the product is incorporated.
Incorrect wiring may lead to loss of safety functions.
4.
Auxiliary monitoring outputs are NOT safety outputs. Do not use
auxiliary monitoring outputs as safety outputs. Such incorrect use
will cause loss of safety function of D40A and peripheral devices.
5.
After installing the D40A, qualified personnel must confirm the
installation, and must conduct test operations and maintenance.
The qualified personnel must
b
e qualified and authorized to
secure safety at each phases of design, installation, running,
maintenance, and disposal of the system.
6.
A qualified person in charge, who is familiar with the machine in
which the D40A is to
b
e installed, must conduct and verify the
installation.
7.
Be sure to inspect the D40A daily and every 6 months. Otherwise,
serious injury may possi
b
ly occur due to system malfunctions.
8.
Connect the D40A to only appropriate components or devices
complying with relevant safety standards corresponding to the
required level of safety category. Conformity to requirements of
the safety category must
b
e determined for the entire system. It is
recommended to consult an authorized certification
b
ody
regarding assessment of conformity to the required safety level.
9.
Do not dismantle, repair, or modify the product. Doing so may lead
to loss of safety functions.
10.
Use the G9SX within an enclosure with a IP54 degree of
protection or higher according to IEC/EN 60529.
11.
Do not apply DC voltages exceeding the rated voltages, nor any
AC voltages to G9SX-NS
@
.
12.
Use a DC supply satisfying the requirements given
b
elow to
prevent electric shock.
•
A DC power supply with dou
b
le or reinforced insulation, for
example, according to IEC/EN 60950 or EN 50178, or a
transformer according to IEC/EN 61558.
•
A DC supply satisfying the requirements for class 2 circuits or
limited voltage/current circuits stated in UL 508.

.
Properly apply the specified voltages to the inputs. Applying
inappropriate voltages may cause the product to fail to perform its
specified function, which could lead to the loss of safety functions
or damages to the product.
14.
Auxiliary error outputs and auxiliary monitoring outputs are NOT
safety outputs. Do not use these outputs as safety outputs.
Such incorrect use will cause loss of safety functions of the G9SX
and its relevant system. Also logical AND connection outputs can
only
b
e used for logical AND connections with the G9SX-
@
.
15.
After installing the G9SX-NS
@
, qualified personnel must confirm
the installation, and must conduct test operations and
maintenance. The qualified personnel must
b
e qualified and
authorized to secure safety at each phases of design, installation,
running, maintenance, and disposal of system.
16.
A qualified person in charge, who is familiar with the machine in
which G9SX-NS
@
is to
b
e installed, must conduct and verify the
installation.
17.
Perform daily and 6-month inspections for the G9SX-NS
@
.
Otherwise, the system may fail to work properly, resulting in
serious injury.
Serious injury may possi
b
ly occur due to
b
reakdown of
safety outputs.
Do not connect loads
b
eyond the rated value to the
safety outputs.
Serious injury may possi
b
ly occur due to loss of required
safety functions.
Wire the D40A and G9SX-NS properly so that supply
voltages or voltages for loads do NOT touch the safety
outputs accidentally.
Serious injury may possi
b
ly occur due to damage to
safety outputs.
Provide protective circuits against counter-electromotive
force if inductive loads are connected to safety outputs.
Serious injury may possi
b
ly occur due to loss of safety
functions.
Use appropriate devices referring to the information
provided
b
elow.
The machine may start operating and may result in
serious injury or death.
Do not put the actuator close to the switch when the door
is open.
