On Wiring:
Connections to the instrument should be made to the terminal
block. For assignment of the terminals, refer to section 6. The
recommended screwing torque is 0.8 to 1.0 Nm.
For lead wires, use a highly flexible stranded conductor. The
recommended nominal cross-section of the lead wire conductor
is 0.5 to 2.0 mm
2
.
The connection of the lead wire to the terminal block should be
made with the insulated crimp terminal attached to the end of the
wire. Without the insulation, short circuit or electric shock may
occur. The recommended thickness of the crimp terminal is 0.7
to 1.0 mm.
Note that only up to two (2) crimp terminals can be connected to
one (1) terminal screw. In this case, the thickness of the crimp
terminal should be not greater than 0.8 mm.

To Avoid Erroneous Measurements:
In order to reduce the influence of noise, the input/output wire
and power supply wire should not be used in a same bundle or
same conduit. They should be installed separately with a
minimum distance of 200 mm.
Avoid wiring the signal lines in the vicinity of equipment
generating magnetic fields or electromagnetic waves, such as
electric motors and large-scale transformers. If inevitable,
anti-noise measures such as employment of shielded wires are
indispensable.
At least 30 minutes of warm-up is required prior to operation.
Any sensor or equipment to be connected to the instrument
should be selected in consideration of the input/output
impedance of the same. (For detailed specifications, refer to
section 4 or the relevant product specification sheet that can be
downloaded from our website at https://www.mtt.co.jp.)
4. About the Product
The MS3716 adds a first-order delay to DC input signals and
converts them into isolated DC output signals.
Features:
Time constant for first-order delay is adjustable with a front panel
trimmer within the range of time constants you have specified
when ordering.
Pin and socket contacts are gold-plated (0.2
μ
m) to ensure high
reliability and long-term stability.
High dielectric strength of 2,000 VAC between input, [output 1,
output 2], power, and ground.
The power unit can deliver AC power ranging from 85 to 264V
steplessly without switching to meet varied power requirements.
Plug-in type for better maintainability
Drop-proof terminal screws for ease and safety of installation
Fuse installed in the power line as standard.
