Environment
WARNING
Do not use the product in an application where water or cutting oil can splash onto the valve
directly.
• In an environment where water and cutting oil can splash onto the valve, protect it by installing it
under a cover or inside a paneled casing.
• If cutting oil splashes onto the cylinder rod, the oil may enter into the secondary side piping of
the solenoid valve through the cylinder, causing a malfunction. Consult CKD before using the
product in such an environment.
Observe the following precautions since coils produce heat.
• Appropriate ventilation or heat dissipation measures must be considered if the product is
installed in a control board or if the solenoid coil needs to be energized for a long period.
• Be careful when touching the valve since the coil temperature may rise depending on the
surrounding temperature and energization time.
Do not use the product in the presence of corrosive gas or solvents.
Do not use the product in an environment where corrosive gases such as sulfur dioxide gas or
solvents are present.
Do not use the product in a humid environment.
Condensation may occur due to a change in the temperature.
Do not use the product in an explosive gas environment.
For use in an explosive gas environment, select an explosion-proof solenoid valve.
CAUTION
Take measures to prevent foreign matters from entering the exhaust port in a dusty
environment.
Foreign matters may enter the exhaust port of a solenoid valve when the valve is operated to
supply or exhaust air or if the exhaust port is facing up. Install a silencer to prevent foreign matters
from entering the exhaust port or mount the valve so that the exhaust port faces down.
Do not use the product where it is subject to vibrations or shocks.
Do not subject the product to vibrations exceeding 50 m/s
2
or shocks exceeding 300 m/s
2
.
Use extreme care to avoid deterioration of packings and gaskets when using the product in a
place with high ozone concentration (for example, near a beach or in an area with frequent
thunderstorms).
Packing and gaskets may deteriorate sooner than usual.
Take measures against lightning surges on the device side.
The product has no resistance to lightning surges.
Use AC voltage models in an installation category II environment.
