3/4/5-Port Solenoid Valves Precautions 1 Be sure to read this before handling products. Design/Selection 2. Surge voltage suppressor 1) The surge voltage suppressor built into the valve is intended to protect the output contacts so that the surge generated inside valve does not adversely affect the output contacts.
3/4/5-Port Solenoid Valves Precautions 2 Be sure to read this before handling products. Design/Selection Wiring 4. Operation in low temperature conditions 1. The valve is an electrical product. For safety, install an appropriate fuse and circuit breaker before use. It is possible to operate a valve in extreme temperatures, as low as –10°C.
3/4/5-Port Solenoid Valves Precautions 3 Be sure to read this before handling products. Air Supply 1. Temperature of ambient environment Use the valve within the range of the ambient temperature specification of each valve. In addition, pay attention when using the valve in 4.
