5. Explanation of work (1) Pump operation: ① When proximity switch R input is on, solenoid valve operation output keeps ON condition. ② Even if proximity switch R input is off, solenoid valve operation output keeps ON condition. ③ At the condition of proximity switch L input is on, solenoid valve operation output becomes off. ④...
(5) Life alarm: This function effects to alarm and notice when accumulated count number becomes beyond the fixed total count number which was set manually. Output for solenoid valve and Electro-pneumatic regulator (optional) still keep operating condition, though. Total count number setting can be executed at setting screen No.9, and also, it is able to reset by manual reset or reset signal from the externals.

Caution • Proximity switch cord of FF, FW and FS pumps consists of three wires of black, white and red. Wrong connection of them will cause the failure of proximity switch. Caution 1. Standard proximity switch can not be used to handle flammable liquid such as solvent or so. Ask IWAKI for explosion-proof proximity switch.
1. How to operate ① Confirm if pump, solenoid valve, alarm devices and electro-pneumatic regulator are connected correctly each other, and if it is connected DC24V as well. (Adjust voltage to DC24V with the help of transformer if it is an abnormal voltage.) ②...
