    Safety Instructions These safety instructions are intended to prevent hazardous situations and/or equipment damage. These instructions indicate the level of potential hazard with the labels of "Caution", "Warning" or "Danger". They are all important notes for safety and must be followed in addition to International 1) standards (ISO/IEC) and other safety regulations.
  • Page 4 Caution The product is provided for use in manufacturing industries. The product herein described is basically provided for peaceful use in manufacturing industries. If considering using the product in other industries, consult SMC beforehand and exchange specifications or a contract if necessary. If anything is unclear, contact your nearest sales branch.
  • Page 5 Operator This operation manual is intended for those who have knowledge of machinery using pneumatic equipment, and have sufficient knowledge of assembly, operation and maintenance of such equipment. Only those persons are allowed to perform assembly, operation and maintenance. Read and understand this operation manual carefully before assembling, operating or providing maintenance to the product.
  • Page 6 Caution ■Do not touch the terminals and connectors while the power is on. Otherwise electric shock, malfunction or damage to the product can result. ■Perform sufficient trial run. Otherwise, injury or damage to the system can result due to suction failure depending on the conditions of the suction of the workpiece or the pressure switch settings.
  • Page 7 ●Product handling Installation •Tighten to the specified tightening torque. If the tightening torque is exceeded the mounting screws and brackets may be broken. If the tightening torque is insufficient, the product can be displaced and loosen the mounting screws. (Refer to page 17) •Be sure to ground terminal FG when using a commercially available switch-mode power supply.
  • Page 8 Wiring •Do not pull the lead wires. In particular, never lift a Pressure switch 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.
  • Page 9 •Prevent foreign matter such as remnant of wires from entering the Pressure switch. Take proper measures for the remnant not to enter the Pressure switch in order to prevent failure or malfunction. •Do not use the product in an environment that is exposed to temperature cycle.
