Page 3: Safety Instructions
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 Standards (ISO/IEC) , and other safety regulations.
Page 4 Safety Instructions Caution We develop, design, and manufacture our products to be used for automatic control equipment, and provide them for peaceful use in manufacturing industries. Use in non-manufacturing industries is not covered. Products we manufacture and sell cannot be used for the purpose of transactions or certification specified in the Measurement Act.
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. ■After maintenance is complete, perform appropriate functional inspections and leak tests. Stop operation if the equipment does not function properly or there is a leakage of fluid. When leakage occurs from parts other than the piping, the product might be faulty.
Page 7 ●Product handling ∗Installation •Tighten to the specified tightening torque. If the tightening torque is exceeded the mounting screws and brackets may damaged. If the tightening torque is insufficient, the product may be displaced and the mounting screws may come loose (Refer to page "Mounting and Installation".) •Do not apply excessive stress to the product when it is mounted with a panel mount.
Page 8 ∗Wiring •Do not pull the lead wires. In particular, never lift a product equipped with fitting and piping by holding the lead wires. Otherwise damage to the internal parts can result, causing malfunction or disconnection of the connector. •Avoid repeatedly bending or stretching the lead wire, or placing heavy loads on it Repeated bending stress or tensile stress can cause damage to the sheath, or breakage of the wires.
Page 9 ∗Environment •Do not use the product in area that is exposed to corrosive gases, chemicals, sea water, water or steam. Otherwise failure or malfunction can result. •Do not use in a place where the product could be splashed by oil or chemicals. If the product is to be used in an environment containing oils or chemicals such as coolant or cleaning solvent, even for a short time, it may be adversely affected (damage, malfunction, or hardening of the lead wires) •Do not use in an area where electrical surges are generated.
Page 10 ∗Adjustment and Operation •Do not short-circuit the load. When the product load is short circuit, generated excess current lead to cause the damage of the product. •Supply the power when there is no flow. ∗Maintenance •Perform regular maintenance and inspections. There is a risk of unexpected malfunction of components due to the malfunction of equipment and machinery.

Summary of Product parts Item Description Indicates the flow status. LED is flashing (Green) when flow is detected. Flow indicator LED As the flow rate increases, the flashing rate increases. LED is ON (Red) when the max. rated flow has been exceeded. Indicates the power supply status.
Page 15: Mounting And Installation
Mounting and Installation ■Installation •Refer to the flow direction of the fluid indication on the product label for installation and piping. Panel mounting •Insert Panel Mount Adapter B (supplied as an accessory) into Section A of Panel Mount Adapter A. Push Panel Mount Adapter B from behind until the display is fixed onto the panel.
Page 16 Bracket mounting •Mount the bracket using the mounting screws supplied. •The required tightening torque is 0.5 ± 0.05 N•m. Without flow adjustment valve With flow adjustment valve (using ZS-33-M) (using ZS-33-MS) •Install the product (with bracket) using the M3 screws (4 pcs.). •Bracket thickness is approximately 1.2 mm.
Page 17: Piping
■Piping For the metal piping attachments •Ensure that the metal piping attachments are tightened to the required torque (refer to the table below). •If the tightening torque is exceeded, the product can be broken. If the tightening torque is insufficient, the fittings may become loose.
Page 18: Wiring
■Wiring Wiring of connector •Connections should only be made with the power supply turned off. •Use separate routes for the product wiring and any power or high voltage wiring. Otherwise, malfunction may result due to noise. •Ensure that the FG terminal is connected to ground when using a commercially available switch-mode power supply.
Page 19 Internal circuit and wiring example Analogue output: 1 to 5 V Output impedance: 1 k Ω Analogue output: 4 to 20 mA Max. load impedance: 600 (24 VDC) Ω Min. load impedance: 50 Ω Select response time (input): No voltage input (reed switch or solid state switch), 30 ms or more Select response time (input) The response time can be selected to improve the stability of the analogue output, if the output is unstable due to flow rate pulsation.
Page 20: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting If an operation failure occurs with the product, use the chart below to find out the cause of the problem. If none of the countermeasures seem to be applicable, or a replacement product operates normally when installed, the product may be faulty. A product can be damaged by the operating environment (system configuration etc).
