  This product is intended for use with industrial machines, test and measuring equipment. 

(It is not designed for use with medical equipment and nuclear energy plant.) 

  This is a Class A instrument. In a domestic environment, this instrument may cause radio 

interference, in which case the user may be required to take additional measures. 

 This instrument is protected from electric shock by reinforced insulation. Provide 

reinforced insulation between the wire for the input signal and the wires for instrument 
power supply, source of power and loads. 

  Be sure to provide an appropriate surge control circuit respectively for the following:   

 

If input/output or signal lines within the building are longer than 30 meters. 

 

If input/output or signal lines leave the building, regardless the length. 

 This instrument is designed for installation in an enclosed instrumentation panel. All 

high-voltage connections such as power supply terminals must be enclosed in the 
instrumentation panel to avoid electric shock to operating personnel. 

 All precautions described in this manual should be taken to avoid damage to the 

instrument or equipment. 

 If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection 

provided by the equipment may be impaired. 

  All wiring must be in accordance with local codes and regulations. 

 To prevent instrument damage as a result of failure, protect the power line and the 

input/output lines from high currents with a suitable overcurrent protection device with 
adequate breaking capacity such as a fuse, circuit breaker, etc. 

 A malfunction in this product may occasionally make control operations impossible or 

prevent alarm outputs, resulting in a possible hazard. Take appropriate measures in the 
end use to prevent hazards in the event of malfunction. 

  Prevent metal fragments or lead wire scraps from falling inside instrument case to avoid 

electric shock, fire or malfunction. 

  Tighten each terminal screw to the specified torque found in the manual to avoid electric 

shock, fire or malfunction. 

  For proper operation of this instrument, provide adequate ventilation for heat dissipation. 

  Do not connect wires to unused terminals as this will interfere with proper operation of 

the instrument. 

  Turn off the power supply before cleaning the instrument. 

  Do not use a volatile solvent such as paint thinner to clean the instrument. Deformation or 

discoloration may occur. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove stains from the instrument. 

  To avoid damage to the instrument display, do not rub with an abrasive material or push 

the front panel with a hard object.

2. MOUNTING 

 

 

 

 

 
 

 

2.1 Mounting Cautions 

(1) This instrument is intended to be used under the following environmental conditions. 

(IEC 61010-1)

 [OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY II, POLLUTION DEGREE 2] 

(2)  Use this instrument within the following environment conditions: 

  Allowable ambient temperature: 

10 to 

50 

  Allowable ambient humidity:   

5 to 95 %RH 

(Absolute humidity: MAX. W. C 29.3 g/m

3

 dry air at 101.3 kPa) 

  Installation environment conditions:  Indoor use 

Altitude up to 2000 m 

(3)  Avoid the following conditions when selecting the mounting location: 

  Rapid changes in ambient temperature which may cause condensation. 

  Corrosive or inflammable gases. 

  Direct vibration or shock to the mainframe. 

  Water, oil, chemicals, vapor or steam splashes. 

  Excessive dust, salt or iron particles. 

  Excessive induction noise, static electricity, magnetic fields or noise. 

  Direct air flow from an air conditioner. 

  Exposure to direct sunlight. 

  Excessive heat accumulation. 

(4)  Mount this instrument in the panel considering the following conditions: 

  Ensure at least 50 mm space on top and bottom of the instrument for maintenance and 

environmental reasons. 

  Do not mount this instrument directly above the equipment that generates large amount of 

heat (heaters, transformers, semi-conductor functional devices, large-wattage resistors).

 

  If the ambient temperature rises above 50 

C, cool this instrument with a forced air fan, 

cooler, etc. Cooled air should not blow directly on this instrument. 

  In order to improve safety and the immunity to withstand noise, mount this instrument as 

far away as possible from high voltage equipment, power lines, and rotating machinery. 

High voltage equipment:  Do not mount within the same panel. 
Power lines: 

Separate at least 200 mm. 

Rotating machinery: 

Separate as far as possible. 

(5) If this instrument is permanently connected to equipment, it is important to include a 

switch or circuit-breaker into the installation. This should be in close proximity to the 
equipment and within easy reach of the operator. It should be marked as the 
disconnecting device for the equipment.
