• Locations where strong electromagnetic noises may affect the SL-T11R
■ Tar ge t ma ch in e
Danger
• The SL-T11R has not undergone the model certification examination in accordance with
Article 44-2 of the Japanese Industrial Safety and Health Law. The SL-T11R, therefore,
cannot be used in Japan as a “Safety Device for Press and Shearing machines” as established in Article 42 of that law.
• The machine on which the SL-T11R is to be installed must be susceptible to an emergency stop at all operating points during its operation cycle. Do not use the SL-T11R for
machines with irregular stop times.
• Do not use the SL-T11R for power presses equipped with full-revolution clutches.
• The SL-T11R cannot be used as a PSDI because it does not fulfill the requirements of
OSHA 1910.217(h). Refer to OSHA 1910.217 for the PSDI mode.
• Do not use the SL-T11R to control (stop forward motion, etc.) trains, cars and other transportation vehicles, aircraft, equipment for use in space, medical devices, or nuclear power
generation systems.
■ Circuit design and wiring
Danger
• Always turn off the power to the SL-T11R when performing electrical wiring.
• You must fulfill the electrical standards and regulations in the country or region in which
the SL-T11R is being used when you perform the electrical wiring.
• To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not connect any of the SL-T11R inputs/outputs
except for FSD to DC power sources outside of the range of 24 V DC + 10% or to any AC
power source.
• To avoid the risk of electric shock, be sure that the hazardous voltage is isolated from all
wiring of the SL-T11R with reinforced insulation or double insulation except for FSD.
• In order to fulfill the requirements in IEC61496-1, UL61496-1, EN61496-1 and UL508,
power supply for the SL-T11R must fulfill the conditions listed below.
