Precautions for Safe Use
Be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent malfunction or adverse affects on the perfor-
mance or functionality of the product. Not doing so may occasionally result in unexpected events. Do
not handle the K6PM-TH in ways that exceed the ratings.
 Common for the Main Unit and Sensor
(1) Do not use or store the product in the following locations:
• Locations subject to water or oil
• Outdoor or locations subject to direct sunlight
• Locations subject to dust or corrosive gases (particularly sulfurizing gases, ammonia, etc.)
• Locations subject to rapid temperature changes
• Locations prone to icing and dew condensation
• Locations subject to excessive vibration or shock
• Locations subject to rain and wind damage
• Locations subject to influence of static electricity and noise
• Locations subject to bugs and small animals
(2) Use and store the product in a location where the ambient temperature and humidity are within the
specified ranges. If applicable, provide forced cooling.
(3) Check terminal polarity when wiring and wire all connections correctly.
(4) Do not wire the input and output terminals incorrectly.
(5) Be sure the power voltage is within the rated range.
(6) In order to prevent inductive noise, wire the lines connected to the product separately from power
lines carrying high voltages or currents. Also, do not wire in parallel with or on the same cables as
power lines. Other measures for reducing noise are to separate from ducts including noisy lines.
(7) Do not use the product near radio wave receivers. Doing so may cause incoming radio wave inter-
ference.
(8) When discarding the product, properly dispose of it as industrial waste.
(9) The maximum terminal temperature is 80°C. Use wires with a heat resistance of 80°C min to wire
the terminals.
(10) Don't use because it may be damaged inside the product when the product fall by mistake.
(11) Confirm the wiring the input and output terminals correctly before power is supplied.
(12) Do not bend a wire past its natural bending radius or pull on it with excessive force. Doing so may
cause the wire disconnection.
(13) Use the cable within the length that is rated in the specification requirements for the wiring between
the sensor and the product. As for the requirements on the cable distance, refer to 2-3-3 I/O Wiring
on page 2-17.
(14) Do not connect or disconnect the cables between the sensor and the product while power is being
supplied. Doing so may result in malfunction or failure of the product.
(15) Do not place heavy objects on the cables between the sensor and the Product, and do not apply
excessive force to bend or pull the cables. Doing so may cause a failure.
(16) When using the arrival prediction function, make sure multiple targets with different heat-emitting
tendencies are not included in the segment, and at the same time, make sure the ambient tem-
perature does not change rapidly due to the effect of the air-cooling fan, or the opening/closing of
the control panel door, in order to correctly measure the arrival prediction.
(17) Do not install the product at a location where the sensor unit may be shaken due to vibrations or
impact.
(18) Use this product inside the control panel to prevent external noise.
