regulations.
Caution:
CAUTION indicates a hazard with a low level of risk which, if
not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
Warning:
WARNING indicates a hazard with a medium level of risk
which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Danger:
DANGER indicates a hazard with a high level of risk which,
if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
Operator
The operation manual is intended for those who have knowledge of machinery
using pneumatic equipment, and have sufficient knowledge of assembly,
operation and maintenace of such equipment. Only those persons are allowed
to perform assembly, operation and maintenance.
Read and understand the operation manual carefully before assembling,
operating or providing maintenance to the product.
Safety Instructions
Warning
Do not disassemble, modify (including changing the printed circuit board) or repair.
An injury or failure can result.
Do not operate the product outside of the specifications.
Do not use for flammable or harmful fluids.
Fire, malfunction, or damage to the product can result.
Verify the specifications before use.
Do not operate in an atmosphere containing flammable or explosive gases.
Fire or an explosion can result.
This product is not designed to be explosion proof.
If using the product in an interlocking circuit:
•Provide a double interlocking system, for example a mechanical system.
•Check the product regularly for proper operation.
Otherwise malfunction can result, causing an accident.
The following instructions must be followed during maintenance:
•Turn off the power supply.
•Stop the air supply, exhaust the residual pressure and verify that the air is released before performing
maintenance.
Otherwise an injury can result.
Caution
When handling the unit or assembling/replacing units:
•Do not touch the sharp metal parts of the connector or plug for connecting units.
•Take care not to hit your hand when disassembling the unit.
The connecting portions of the unit are firmly joined with seals.
•When joining units, take care not to get fingers caught between units.
An injury can result.
After maintenance is complete, perform appropriate functional inspections.
Stop operation if the equipment does not function properly.
Safety cannot be assured in the case of unexpected malfunction.
Provide grounding to assure the safety and noise resistance of the Serial System.
Individual grounding should be provided close to the product with a short cable.
NOTE
The direct current power supply to combine should be UL1310 Class 2 power
supply when conformity to UL is necessary.
Maintenance
•Maintenance should be performed according to the Safety Instructions.
•Perform regular maintenance and inspections.
There is a risk of unexpected malfunction.
•Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner etc. to clean each unit.
They could damage the surface of the body and erase the markings on the body.
Use a soft cloth to remove stains.
For heavy stains, use a cloth soaked with diluted neutral detergent and fully squeezed, then wipe up
the stains again with a dry cloth.
Refer to the SMC website (URL http://www.smcworld.com) to obtain more detailed
information about maintenance.
