Circuit (of class 2) which is of maximum 30Vrms (42.4 V peak), with UL 1310 class 2 power supply unit or UL 1585 class 2 transformer.
  • Page 7 ∗Wiring •Do not pull the lead wires. In particular, never lift a product equipped with fitting and piping by holding the lead wires. Otherwise damage to the internal parts can result, causing malfunction or to be off the connector. •Avoid repeatedly bending or stretching the lead wire, or placing heavy load on them. Repetitive bending stress or tensile stress can cause the sheath of the wire to peel off, or breakage of the wire.
  • Page 8 ∗Environment •Do not use the product in area that is exposed to corrosive gases, chemicals, sea water, water or steam. Otherwise failure or malfunction can result. •Do not use in a place where the product could be splashed by oil or chemicals. If the product is to be used in an environment containing oils or chemicals such as coolant or cleaning solvent, even for a short time, it may be adversely affected (damage, malfunction, or hardening of the lead wires) •Do not use in an area where surges are generated.
  • Page 9 ∗Adjustment and Operation •Turn the power on after connecting a load. Otherwise it can cause excess current causing instantaneous breakage of the product. •Do not short-circuit the load. Although error is displayed when the product load is short circuit, generated excess current lead to cause the damage of the product.
