Incorporated Items - Mitsubishi Electric FX3G-14M series Hardware Manual

• Do not wire two or more crimp terminals to one terminal. (If the
wiring with two or more wires is needed, take an appropriate
action such as adding an external terminal.)
• For crimp terminals to be used for the wiring applied with 30 V AC
or higher, use the products with insulating sleeves.
• Cutoff device such as a breaker or a circuit protector should be
installed in accordance with the following precautions.
- Use EN60947-1 or EN60947-3 standards.
- Place the cutoff device so that it can be operated easily.
- Specify that the cutoff device is for this equipment.

INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS
• Use the product within the generic environment specifications
described in section 2.1 of this manual.
Never use the product in areas with excessive dust, oily smoke,
conductive dusts, corrosive gas (salt air, Cl
8(0.32")
NO ), flammable gas, vibration or impacts, or exposed to high
2
86(3.39")
temperature, condensation, or rain and wind.
If the product is used in such conditions, electric shock, fire,
malfunctions, deterioration or damage may occur.
• Do not touch the conductive parts of the product directly to avoid
failure or malfunctions.
W1:
• Install the product securely using a DIN rail or mounting screws.
mm (inches) MASS (Weight):
• Install the product on a flat surface.
Direct mounting kg (lbs)
If the mounting surface is rough, undue force will be applied to
hole pitches
the PC board, thereby causing nonconformities.
Approx. 0.50 • When drilling screw holes or wiring, make sure cutting or wire

(1.10lbs) debris does not enter the ventilation slits.
Failure to do so may cause fire, equipment failures or

(1.21lbs)
• Be sure to remove the dust proof sheet from the PLC's
Approx. 0.70
ventilation port when installation work is completed. Failure to
122 (4.81")
(1.54lbs)
do so may cause fire, equipment failures or malfunctions.
• Connect the extension cables, peripheral device cables, input/
Approx. 0.85
167 (6.58")
output cables and battery connecting cable securely to their
(1.87lbs)
designated connectors.
Unsecured connection may cause malfunctions.
• Turn off the power before attaching or detaching the following
devices.
Failure to do so may cause device failures or malfunctions.
- Peripheral devices, display modules, expansion boards and
special adapters
- Extension units/blocks and the FX Series terminal block
- Battery and memory cassette
• When a dust proof sheet is supplied with an extension unit/
block, keep the sheet applied to the ventilation slits during
installation and wiring work.
• To prevent temperature rise, do not install the PLC on a floor, a
ceiling or a vertical surface.
Install it horizontally on a wall as shown in section 2.2.
• Keep a space of 50mm (1.97") or more between the unit main
body and another device or structure (part A). Install the unit as
far away as possible from high-voltage lines, high-voltage
devices and power equipment.
Failure to do so may cause fire, equipment failures or
malfunctions.
WIRING
PRECAUTIONS
• Cut off all phases of the power supply externally before
installation or wiring work in order to avoid damage to the
product or electric shock.
• The temperature rating of the cable should be 80°C or more.
