Safety Instructions
Mounting and Installation
Warning
Installation
Do not disassemble, modify (including changing the printed circuit board) or repair.
An injury or failure can result.
•Never mount the product in a location that will be used as a foothold.
•The rotation angle of the monitor is 270
Do not operate the product outside of the specifications.
Do not use for flammable or harmful fluids.
part with excessive force will damage the end stop.
Fire, malfunction, or damage to the product can result.
Verify the specifications before use.
Do not operate in an atmosphere containing flammable, explosive or corrosive gas.
Fire or an explosion can result.
This product is not designed to be explosion proof.
Do not use the product for flammable fluid.
A fire or explosion can result.
Do not use the product in a place where static electricity is a problem.
Otherwise it can cause failure or malfunction of the system.
If using the product in an interlocking circuit:
•Provide a double interlocking system, for example a mechanical system
•Check the product regularly for proper operation
Otherwise malfunction can result, causing an accident.
The following instructions must be followed during maintenance:
•Turn off the power supply
•Stop the air supply, exhaust the residual pressure and verify that the air is released before performing
maintenance work
Otherwise an injury can result.
Caution
Do not touch the terminals and connectors while the power is on.
Otherwise electric shock, malfunction or damage to the product can result.
After maintenance is complete, perform appropriate functional inspections and leak tests.
Stop operation if the equipment does not function properly or there is a leakage of fluid.
When leakage occurs from parts other than the piping, the product might be faulty.
Disconnect the power supply and stop the fluid supply.
Do not apply fluid under leaking conditions.
Safety cannot be assured in the case of unexpected malfunction.
Maintenance
How to reset the product after a power cut or forcible de-energizing
The setting of the product will be retained as it was before a power cut or
de-energizing.
The output condition is also basically recovered to that before a power cut or
de-energizing, but may change depending on the operating environment.
Therefore, check the safety of the whole installation before operating the product.
Piping
•Use the product within the specified operating pressure range and temperature
range.
•Proof pressure is 2.25 MPa.
Connector pin numbers
•Connect the piping to the fittings.
Connector
(On the product)
•Mount the product so that the fluid direction is the same as the arrow indicated

on the product.
•Never mount the product upside down.
•The piping on the IN side must have a straight section of piping whose length

Wiring
•Connections should only be made with the power supply turned off.
•Use separate routes for the product wiring and any power or high voltage
wiring. Otherwise, malfunction may result due to noise.
•Ensure that the FG terminal is connected to ground when using a commercially

. Rotating the display
available switch-mode power supply. When a switch-mode power supply is
connected to the product, switching noise will be superimposed and the
product specification can no longer be met. This can be prevented by inserting
a noise filter, such as a line noise filter and ferrite core, between the switch-
180°
mode power supply and the product, or by using a series power supply instead

1: Hysteresis can be set between "0" and "3% of maximum rated flow". If the difference between Set point 1 and
Set point 2 is less than "6% of maximum rated flow", the maximum Set value of hysteresis is (Set point 1 -
Set point 2) divided by 2.
