Cautions during Use
• Follow instructions in 'Cautions during Use' . Otherwise, it may cause unexpected
accidents.
• 12-24 VDCᜡ power supply should be insulated and limited voltage/current or Class 2,
SELV power supply device.
• Use the product, after 0.8 sec of supplying power.
• Wire as short as possible and keep away from high voltage lines or power lines, to
prevent surge and inductive noise. Do not use near the equipment which generates
strong magnetic force or high frequency noise (transceiver, etc.).
In case installing the product near the equipment which generates strong surge (motor,
welding machine, etc.), use diode or varistor to remove surge.
• This unit may be used in the following environments.
- Indoors (in the environment condition rated in 'Specifications')
- Altitude max. 2,000 m
- Pollution degree 2
- Installation category II
Cautions for Installation
• Install the unit correctly with the usage environment, location, and the designated
specifications.
• Do NOT impacts with a hard object or excessive bending of the wire lead-out. It may
cause damage the water resistance.
• Do NOT pull the Ø 4 mm cable with a tensile strength of 30 N or over.
It may result in fire due to the broken wire.
• When extending wire, use AWG 22 cable or over within 200 m.
• Refer to the table below for the screw tightening torque when mounting the bracket.
