Environment
•
Do not use the product in area that is exposed to corrosive gases, chemicals, sea water, water or
steam.
Otherwise failure or malfunction can result.
•
Do not use in an area where surges are generated.
If there is equipment which generates a large amount of surge (solenoid type lifter, high frequency induction
furnace, motor, etc.) close to the fieldbus system, this may cause deterioration or breakage of the internal circuit of
the fieldbus system. Avoid sources of surge generation and crossed lines.
•
When a surge-generating load such as a relay or solenoid is driven directly, use an fieldbus system with
a built-in surge absorbing element.
Direct drive of a load generating surge voltage can damage the fieldbus system.
•
The product is CE marked, but not immune to lightning strikes. Take measures against lightning strikes
in the system.
•
Prevent foreign matter such as remnant of wires from entering the fieldbus system to avoid failure and
malfunction.
•
Mount the product in a place that is not exposed to vibration or impact.
Otherwise failure or malfunction can result.
•
Do not use the product in an environment that is exposed to temperature cycle.
Heat cycles other than ordinary changes in temperature can adversely affect the inside of the product.
•
Do not expose the product to direct sunlight.
If using in a location directly exposed to sunlight, shade the product from the sunlight.
Otherwise failure or malfunction can result.
•
Keep within the specified ambient temperature range.
Otherwise malfunction can result.
•
Do not operate close to a heat source, or in a location exposed to radiant heat.
Otherwise malfunction can result.

Adjustment and Operation
•
Set the switches by using a sharp-pointed screwdriver etc.
It may damage set switches.
•
Perform settings suitable for the operating conditions.
Incorrect setting can cause operation failure.
For details of each setting, refer to page 20 to 30 of this manual
•
Please refer to the PLC manufacturer's manual etc. for details of programming and addresses.
For the PLC protocol and programming refer to the relevant manufacturer's documentation.

Maintenance
•
Turn off the power supply, stop the supplied air, exhaust the residual pressure and verify the release of
air before performing maintenance.
There is a risk of unexpected malfunction.
•
Perform regular maintenance and inspections.
There is a risk of unexpected malfunction.
•
After maintenance is complete, perform appropriate functional inspections.
Stop operation if the equipment does not function properly.
Otherwise safety is not assured due to an unexpected malfunction or incorrect operation.
•
Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner etc. to clean the each unit.
They could damage the surface of the body and erase the markings on the body.
Use a soft cloth to remove stains.
For heavy stains, use a cloth soaked with diluted neutral detergent and fully squeezed, then wipe up the stains
again with a dry cloth.
