Before installation, operation, maintenance or inspection of this product, thoroughly read through and understand this manual and all of the associated manuals. Also, take care to handle the module properly and safely.

This manual classifies the safety precautions into two categories: and .

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in medium or slight personal injury or physical damage.

Depending on the circumstances, procedures indicated by may also cause severe injury. It is important to follow all precautions for personal safety. Store this manual in a safe place so that it can be taken out and read whenever necessary. Always forward it to the end user.

1. DESIGN PRECAUTIONS

• Make sure to have the following safety circuits outside of the PLC to ensure safe system operation even during external power supply problems or PLC failure. Otherwise, malfunctions may cause serious accidents.

1) Most importantly, have the following: an emergency stop circuit, a protection circuit, an interlock circuit for

opposite movements (such as normal vs. reverse rotation), and an interlock circuit (to prevent damage to the equipment at the upper and lower positioning limits).

2) Note that when the PLC CPU detects an error, such as a watchdog timer error, during self-diagnosis, all outputs

are turned off. Also, when an error that cannot be detected by the PLC CPU occurs in an input/output control block, output control may be disabled. External circuits and mechanisms should be designed to ensure safe machinery operation in such a case.

3) If an overload of the 24 V DC service power supply occurs, the voltage automatically drops, inputs in the PLC

are disabled, and all outputs are turned off. External circuits and mechanisms should be designed to ensure safe machinery operation in such a case.

4) Note that when an error occurs in a relay or transistor output device, the output could be held either on or off.

For output signals that may lead to serious accidents, external circuits and mechanisms should be designed to ensure safe machinery operation in such a case.

• Do not bundle the control line together with or lay it close to the main circuit or power line. As a guideline, lay the control line at least 100 mm (3.94") or more away from the main circuit or power line. Noise may cause malfunctions.

• Install module so that excessive force will not be applied to peripheral device connectors. Failure to do so may result in wire damage/breakage or PLC failure.

3. WIRING PRECAUTIONS

Reference

• Make sure to cut off all phases of the power supply externally before attempting installation or wiring work. Failure to do so may cause electric shock or damage to the product.

• Make sure to attach the terminal cover, offered as an accessory, before turning on the power or initiating operation after installation or wiring work. Failure to do so may cause electric shock.

• Do not supply power to the [24V] terminal (24 V DC service power supply) on the main unit. Doing so may cause damage to the product.

• Perform class D grounding (grounding resistance: 100 Ω or less) to the grounding terminal on the main unit with a

wire 2 mm2 or thicker. Do not use common grounding with heavy electrical systems (refer to Section 8.3).

• Connect the AC power supply wiring to the dedicated terminals described in this manual. If an AC power supply is connected to a DC input/output terminal or DC power supply terminal, the PLC will burn out.

• Noise resistance may be lower when the L and N wires of an AC power supply are not wired correctly. Please wire using the correct polarity.

• Connect the DC power supply wiring to the dedicated terminals described in this manual. If an AC power supply is connected to a DC input/output terminal or DC power supply terminal, the PLC will burn out.

• Do not wire vacant terminals externally. Doing so may damage the product.

• When drilling screw holes or wiring, make sure cutting or wire debris does not enter the ventilation slits. Failure to do so may cause fire, equipment failures or malfunctions.

• Make sure to observe the following precautions in order to prevent any damage to the machinery or accidents due to abnormal data written to the PLC under the influence of noise:

1) Do not bundle the power line or shield of the analog input/output cable together with or lay it close to the main

circuit, high-voltage line, or load line. Otherwise, noise disturbance and/or surge induction are likely to take place. As a guideline, lay the control line at least 100 mm (3.94") or more away from the main circuit, high-voltage line, or load line.

2) Ground the shield of the analog input/output cable at one point on the signal receiving side.

However, do not use common grounding with heavy electrical systems.

• Make sure to properly wire to the main unit in accordance with the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause electric shock, equipment failures, a short-circuit, wire breakage, malfunctions, or damage to the product.

- Make sure to properly wire to the main unit in accordance with the rated voltage, current, and frequency of each

terminal.

- The disposal size of the cable end should follow the dimensions described in the manual.

FX3S Series Programmable Controllers User's Manual - Hardware Edition

Caution for compliance with EC Directive

1. Installation in Enclosure

Programmable logic controllers are open-type devices that must be installed and used within conductive control boxes. Please use the FX shielded control boxes. Please secure the control box lid to the control box (for conduction). Installation within a control box greatly affects the safety of the system and aids in shielding noise from the programmable logic controller.

2. Caution for Analog Products in use

The analog products have been found to be compliant to the European standards in the aforesaid manual and directive. However, for the very best performance from what are in fact delicate measuring and controlled output devices, Mitsubishi Electric would like to make the following points; As analog devices are sensitive by nature, their use should be considered carefully. For users of proprietary cables (integral with sensors or actuators), these users should follow those manufacturers' installation requirements. Mitsubishi Electric recommends that shielded cables be used. If NO other EMC protection is provided, users may experience temporary loss or accuracy between +10% / -10% in very heavy industrial areas. However, Mitsubishi Electric suggests that if adequate EMC precautions are followed for the users complete control system.

- Sensitive analog cables should not be laid in the same trunking or cable conduit as high voltage cabling. Where possible, users should run analog cables separately.

- Good cable shielding should be used. When terminating the shield at Earth - ensure that no earth loops are accidentally created.

- When reading analog values, EMC accuracy can be improved by averaging the readings. This can be achieved either through functions on the analog product or through a user's program in the FX PLC main unit.
