4 Installation
4.1 Direct mounting
Secure in position using 4 x M5 screws, 15 mm minimum thread length.
4.2 Wiring connections
• Communication Connector
Select the appropriate Ethernet cables to mate with the connectors
on the SI unit. The PROFINET connection has 2 ports, PORT 1 and
PORT 2, and both ports can be used for connection.

• Power Supply Connector
Connect the power supply to the power supply connector on the
Gateway unit. With this cable, power is supplied to the output devices
(such as solenoid valve) and the input devices and for control.

• Both single and two power supply systems can be adopted, however
the wiring should be made separately (for solenoid valves / outputs
and for input and control) for either system.
The M12 connector cable has two types, Standard M12 and
SPEEDCON compatible. If both plug and socket have SPEEDCON
connectors, the cable can be inserted and connected by turning it a
1/2 rotation.
A standard connector can be connected to a SPEEDCON connector.
• Branch Connector
Connect SI units (solenoid valves) and input devices to the Branch
port connectors (COM A - D) using an M12 (8-pin) connector cable
(EX500-AC###-S#P#).
As each cable contains power supply wiring, there is no need to
supply power to the SI unit (solenoid valves) or input devices
separately.
Warning
• Be sure to fit a seal cap (EX9-AWTS) on any unused connectors.
Proper use of the seal cap enables the enclosure to maintain IP65
specification. Tightening torque: 0.1 N•m.
4.3 Ground Connection
• Connect the FE terminal (M3) to ground.
• Individual grounding should be provided close to the product with a
short cable to assure the safety and noise resistance of the system.
• Resistance to ground should be 100 Ω or less.
4 Installation (continued)
4.4 Environment
Warning
• Do not use in an environment where corrosive gases, chemicals, salt
water or steam are present.
• Do not install in a location subject to vibration or impact in excess of
the product's specifications.
• Do not mount in a location exposed to radiant heat that would result
in temperatures in excess of the product's specifications.
