4 Installation
4.1 Installation
Warning
• Do not install the product unless the safety instructions have been read
and understood.
• For further details on mounting and installation to the vacuum manifold,
refer to the vacuum manifold operation manual.
• The SI unit must be connected to a vacuum manifold before it is
powered ON.
Caution
• Be sure to turn OFF the power.
• Check there is no foreign matter inside the SI unit.
• Check there is no damage and no foreign matter on the gasket.
• If the SI unit is not assembled correctly, the internal PCBs may be
damaged or liquid and/or dust may enter into the unit.
• Tighten the screws with the specified tightening torque.
4.2 Environment
Warning
• Do not use in an environment where corrosive gases, chemicals, salt
water or steam are present.
• Do not use in an explosive atmosphere.
• Do not expose to direct sunlight. Use a suitable protective cover.
• 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.

The M12 connector cable for fieldbus connections 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 1/2 rotation.
A standard M12 connector can be connected to a SPEEDCON
connector.
• The power supply for logic/input and the power supply for output are
isolated.
• Select the appropriate cables to mate with the connectors on the SI
unit. Cable accessory details (SMC part number EX9-AC∗∗∗-S∗∗∗,
EX500-AP0∗0-∗ and PCA-140180∗) can be found in the operation
manual on the SMC website (URL: https://www.smcworld.com).
5.2 Ground Connection
• Connect the FE ground terminal to ground.
The SI Unit must be connected to FE (Functional Earth) to divert
electromagnetic interference.
For maximum protection, the FE cable should be as thick and short as
reasonably possible.
The FE terminal and the metal parts of the fieldbus interface / power
supply connector are internally connected.
• Resistance to ground should be 100 ohms or less.
• FE terminal screw tightening torque: 0.3 N•m.
