INTRODUCTION
Precautions for Safe Use
Installation Environment Precautions
• Do not use the Z500 in environments with flammable or explosive gases.
• Install the Z500 away from high-voltage devices and moving machinery to
allow safe access during operation and maintenance.
Power Supply and Wiring Precautions
• Use the Z500 with the power supply voltages specified in this manual.
• Use crimp terminals for wiring. Do not connect the power supply wires by just
twisting stranded wire and connecting directly to the terminals.
• Use the wire and crimp terminals of the proper sizes as specified in this man-
ual.
• Confirm that wiring has been performed correctly before turning ON the power
supply.
• Cover the terminal blocks with the Terminal Block Protection Covers.
Uncovered terminal blocks can result in electric shock.
• Use a DC power supply with countermeasures against high-voltage spikes
(safe extra low-voltage circuits on the secondary side).
• Be sure to securely tighten the screws when mounting the Z500.
Other Precautions
• Do not attempt to dismantle, repair, or modify the Z500.
• Dispose of the Z500 as industrial waste.
