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.
Safety Instructions Caution SMC develops, designs, and manufactures products to be used for automatic control equipment, and provides them for peaceful use in manufacturing industries. Use in non-manufacturing industries is not allowed. Products SMC manufactures and sells cannot be used for the purpose of transactions or certification specified in the Measurement Act of each country.

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.
Caution ■When handling or assembling or replacing the unit, pay attention to the following: •Do not touch the sharp edges when overseeing the unit. •The unit joints are tightly bound with gaskets, so do not hit your hands when replacing the unit. •Do not put your fingers between them when joining the units.
Page 8
•Product handling Installation •Do not drop, hit or apply excessive shock to the fieldbus system. Otherwise, damage to the product can result, causing malfunction. •Tighten to the specified tightening torque. If the tightening torque is exceeded the mounting screws may be broken. IP67 protection cannot be guaranteed if the screws are not tightened to the specified torque.
•When a surge-generating load such as a relay or solenoid is driven directly, use a fieldbus system with a built-in surge-absorbing element. Direct drive of a load generating surge voltage can damage the fieldbus system. •Prevent foreign matter such as remnant of wires from entering the fieldbus system to avoid failure and malfunction.

Fieldbus System/ Industrial IoT Cybersecurity In recent years, factories have introduced industrial IoT, building up complex networks of production machines. These systems maybe subject to a new threat, cyberattack. To protect the industrial IoT from cyberattacks, it is important to take multiple measures (multi-layer protection) for IoT devices, networks and clouds.

Energy saving 5.5.5. Fig 5.6.5 Example of energy saving operation (Conditions under which release pressure is generated) (1) When the vacuum instruction is ON, the supply valve is automatically closed when the vacuum pressure reaches P2. (2) When the vacuum pressure drops by P2-H2, the supply valve is automatically opened again. (3) Repeat steps (1) and (2) unless the valve protection is activated.
Page 37
The pressure threshold Px/hysteresis Hx in Fig 5.6.5 can be set in the 5.5.1 instance attributes. P2 and H2 also serve to set the energy saving operation range. P1 and P2 represent the vacuum pressure (negative pressure), and P3 and P4 represent the positive pressure, and each can be set in units of ±0.1 kPa.
