• Do not use a mobile phone or a radio phone near this device.
• This device starts running approximately 2 seconds after the power is turned
on. Make sure that the control system is operational when the device starts up.
• Do not use the device in places where:
1) The device is exposed to direct sunlight
2) Dew condensation may occur due to sudden changes in temperature
3) The ambient air contains corrosive or flammable gas
4) There is a high level of dust, metallic dust, or salt content
5) The device may be exposed to organic solvents such as benzene, thinner,
or alcohol and/or strong alkaline substances such as ammonia or caustic
soda, or any such substances exist in the ambient air
6) The device may be directly exposed to vibration or impact or to water drops
7) The device may be exposed to interference from nearby high-voltage lines,
high-voltage equipment, power wires, motor equipment, an amateur radio
station or other transmitter, or a device with large switching surges (the de-
vice must be placed at a distance of 100mm or greater from any interfer-
ence sources)
♦ Machine in which this device is installed
• This device starts the performance after 2 seconds from the power ON. Have
the control system started to function with this timing.
♦ Wiring
• Do not work on (connect or remove etc.) the device while the power is ON.
Failure to follow this precaution could result in an electric shock.
• All electrical wiring should conform to the regional electrical regulations and laws.
The wiring should be done by engineer(s) having the special electrical knowledge.
• Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines or put
them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
• Do not control the device only at one control output.

4 MOUNTING
● When installing this device, make sure that it is correctly oriented: The device
must be installed vertically with its indicators and terminal blocks facing the opera-
tor side in order to ensure heat dissipation.
Installed in vertically
reversed orientation
● In addition, make sure that the device's upper, low-
er, left, and right surfaces are spaced by a 50mm or
more from surrounding objects such as other devic-
es and wiring ducts.
● Do not install the unit above devices which generate heat such as heaters, trans-
formers or large scale resistors.
● In order to eliminate any effects from noise emission, power wires and electro-
magnetic devices should be kept a 100mm or more away from the surfaces of the
device. When installing the unit behind the doors of the control board, be espe-
cially careful to secure clearances as above.
