  • Page 14 Document No.ZL-OM01001 ■ Piping to the Vacuum (V) Port (1) Allow a sufficient margin of tube length when piping, in order to prevent twisting, tensile, moment loads, vibration or impact being applied to the tubes and fittings. This can cause damage to the tube fittings and crushing, bursting or disconnection of tubing.
  • Page 15: Electrical Wiring

    Document No.ZL-OM01001 Electrical wiring 1. Use the specified voltage. Otherwise failure or malfunction can occur. 2. Do not exceed the specified maximum allowable load. Otherwise it can cause damage or shorten the life of the product. 3. Design the product to prevent reverse current when the circuit is opened or the product is forced to operate for operational check.
  • Page 16: Solenoid Valve

    Document No.ZL-OM01001 Solenoid Valve 1. Avoid energizing the solenoid valve for long periods of time. If a solenoid valve is continuously energized for an extended period of time, the heat generated by the coil assembly may reduce performance and life of the valve or have adverse effects on peripheral equipment. Therefore, when it is continuously energized for an extended period of time or when the energized period per day is longer than the de-energized period, use N.O.
