SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

(Read these precautions before using this product.)

Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly.

In this manual, the safety precautions are classified into two levels: " WARNING" and " CAUTION".

WARNING

CAUTION

Under some circumstances, failure to observe the precautions given under " CAUTION" may lead to

serious consequences. Observe the precautions of both levels because they are important for personal and system safety. Make sure that the end users read this manual and then keep the manual in a safe place for future reference.

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

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in minor or moderate injury or property damage.

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

When a safety programmable controller detects an error in an external power supply or a failure in programmable controller, it turns off all the outputs. Create an external circuit to securely stop the power of hazard by turning off the outputs. Incorrect configuration may result in an accident.

Create short current protection for a safety relay, and a protection circuit such as a fuse, and

breaker, outside a safety programmable controller.

When data/program change, or status control is performed from a personal computer to a running safety programmable controller, create an interlock circuit outside the sequence program and safety programmable controller to ensure that the whole system always operates safely. For the operations to a safety programmable controller, pay full attention to safety by reading the relevant manuals carefully, and establishing the operating procedure. Furthermore, for the online operations performed from a personal computer to a safety CPU module, the corrective actions against a communication error due to a cable connection fault, etc. should be predetermined as a system.

A - 1

[Design Precautions]

WARNING

All output signals from a safety CPU module to the CC-Link Safety system master module are prohibited to use. These signals can be found in the CC-Link Safety System Master Module User's Manual. Do not turn ON or OFF these signals by sequence program, since turning ON/OFF these output signals of the programmable controller system may cause malfunctions and safety operation cannot be guaranteed.

All output signals from a safety CPU module to the CC-Link IE Field Safety Network master/local module (with safety functions) are prohibited to use. These signals can be found in the MELSEC-QS CC-Link IE Field Safety Network Master/Local User's Manual. Do not turn ON or OFF these signals by sequence program, since turning ON/OFF these output signals of the programmable controller system may cause malfunctions and safety operation cannot be guaranteed.

When a safety remote I/O module has detected a CC-Link Safety error, it turns off all the outputs. Note that the outputs in a sequence program are not automatically turned off. If a CC-Link Safety or CC-Link IE Field Network error has been detected, create a sequence program that turns off the outputs in the program. If the CC-Link Safety or CC-Link IE Field Network is restored with the outputs on, it may suddenly operate and result in an accident.

To inhibit restart without manual operation after safety functions was performed and outputs were turned OFF, create an interlock program which uses a reset button for restart.

To prevent an illegal operation and malfunction, do not connect a safety programmable controller to the Internet or to a wireless LAN.

[Design Precautions]

CAUTION

Do not install the wires of external devices or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power cables. Keep a distance of 100mm (3.94 inch) or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction due to noise.

After the CPU module is powered on or is reset, the time taken to enter the RUN status varies depending on the system configuration, parameter settings, and/or program size. Design circuits so that the entire system will always operate safely, regardless of the time.

A - 2

[Installation Precautions]

CAUTION

Use the safety programmable controller in an environment that meets the general specifications in this manual. Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire, malfunction, or damage to or deterioration of the product.

To mount the module, while pressing the module mounting lever located in the lower part of the module, fully insert the module fixing projection(s) into the hole(s) in the base unit and press the module until it snaps into place. Incorrect interconnection may cause malfunction, failure, or drop of the module. Secure the module to the base unit with screws. Tighten the screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause drop of the screw, short circuit, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, or malfunction.

Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before mounting or removing the module. Failure to do so may result in damage to the product.

Do not directly touch any conductive part of the module. Doing so can cause malfunction or failure of the module.

[Wiring Precautions]

WARNING

Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before wiring. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or damage to the product.

After wiring, attach the included terminal cover to the module before turning it on for operation. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.

A - 3

[Wiring Precautions]

CAUTION

Individually ground the FG and LG terminals of the programmable controller with a ground resistance of 100  or less. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or malfunction.

Use a solderless terminal with insulation sleeve for wiring of a terminal block. Use up to two solderless terminals for a single terminal.

Use applicable solderless terminals and tighten them within the specified torque range. If any spade solderless terminal is used, it may be disconnected when a terminal block screw comes loose, resulting in failure.

Check the rated voltage and terminal layout before wiring to the module, and connect the cables correctly. Connecting a power supply with a different voltage rating or incorrect wiring may cause a fire or failure.

Tighten the terminal block mounting screws, terminal screws, and module fixing screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening of the terminal block mounting screws or terminal screws can cause short circuit, fire, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, or malfunction. Undertightening of the module fixing screws can cause drop of the module. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop.

Prevent foreign matter such as dust or wire chips from entering the module. Such foreign matter can cause a fire, failure, or malfunction.

A protective film is attached to the top of the module to prevent foreign matter, such as wire chips, from entering the module during wiring. Do not remove the film during wiring. Remove it for heat dissipation before system operation.

A - 4

[Wiring Precautions]

CAUTION

Mitsubishi programmable controllers must be installed in control panels. Connect the main power supply to the power supply module in the control panel through a relay terminal block. Wiring and replacement of a power supply module must be performed by qualified maintenance personnel with knowledge of protection against electric shock. (For the wiring methods, refer to Section 10.3.)

[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]

WARNING

Do not touch any terminal while power is on. Doing so will cause electric shock.

OVERVIEW

(2) The safety CPU operation mode is equipped for safe system operation

The CPU module is equipped with two safety CPU operation modes. "SAFETY MODE" for safe system operation and "TEST MODE" for system construction and maintenance. These two modes prevent the user's erroneous operations for safe system operation.

(a) SAFETY MODE

SAFETY MODE is a mode for safe system operation. This mode prohibits the write operation from a programming tool and the device test operation during the system operation.

(b) TEST MODE

TEST MODE is a mode for maintenance. This mode enables the write operation from a programming tool and the device test operation to debug or maintain the sequence program.

For the details of operations available in the SAFETY MODE and TEST MODE, refer to the following manual.

QSCPU User's Manual (Function Explanation, Program Fundamentals)

(3) Enriched operation history and error history

The CPU module can record up to 3000 logs of user operations performed on the CPU module, and errors occurred in the CPU module, CC-Link Safety, or CC-Link IE Field Network. User operations and errors will be recorded as operation/error history data in chronological order. Checking the operation/error history data helps users perform troubleshooting easier.

The contents recorded in the operation/error history are shown in Table1.2.

CONFIGURATION

GENERAL

SPECIFICATIONS

*1: Overcurrent protection

The overcurrent protection function shuts off the 5 VDC circuit and stops the system if the current flowing in the circuit exceeds the specified value. The LED of the power supply module is turned off or lights up in dim green when voltage is lowered. If this device is activated, switch the input power supply OFF and eliminate the cause such as insufficient current capacity or short. Then, a few minutes later, switch it ON to restart the system. The initial start for the system takes place when the current value becomes normal.

*2: Overvoltage protection

The overvoltage protection function shuts off the 5 VDC circuit and stops the system if a voltage of 5.5 VDC or above is applied to the circuit. When this device is activated, the power supply module LED is turned OFF. For restart of the system, turn OFF the input power supply, and then turn ON in a few minutes. This allows the system to start up with initial start. If the system doesn't start up and a LED indication remains off, replacement of a power supply module is required.

*3: Allowable momentary power failure period

• An instantaneous power failure lasting less than 20ms will cause AC down to be detected, but operation will continue.

• An instantaneous power failure lasting in excess of 20ms may cause the operation to continue or initial start to take place depending on the power supply load.

*4: Inrush current

When power is switched on again immediately (within 5 seconds) after power-off, an inrush current of more than the specified value (2ms or less) may flow. Reapply power 5 or more seconds after power-off. When selecting a fuse and breaker in the external circuit, take account of the blowout, detection characteristics and above matters.

9.1 Requirements for Conformance to EMC Directive

The EMC Directive specifies that products placed on the market must "be so constructed that they do not cause excessive electromagnetic interference (emissions) and are not unduly affected by electromagnetic interference (immunity)". The applicable products are requested to meet these requirements. The Section 9.1.1 through Section 9.1.5 summarize the precautions on conformance to the EMC Directive of the machinery constructed using the MELSEC-QS series programmable controllers. The details of these precautions has been prepared based on the control requirements and the applicable standards control. However, we will not assure that the overall machinery manufactured according to these details conforms to the above-mentioned directives. The method of conformance to the EMC Directive and the judgment on whether or not the machinery conforms to the EMC Directive must be determined finally by the manufacturer of the machinery.

9.1.2 Installation in a control panel

The programmable controller is open equipment and must be installed within a control panel for use.* This not only ensures safety but also ensures effective shielding of programmable controller-generated electromagnetic noise.

* : Install CC-Link Safety remote stations within a control panel as well.

(1) Control panel

• Use a conductive control panel.

• When attaching the control panel's top plate or base plate, mask painting and weld so that good surface contact can be made between the panel and plate.

• To ensure good electrical contact with the control panel, mask the paint on the installation bolts of the inner plate in the control panel so that contact between surfaces can be ensured over the widest possible area.

• Earth the control panel with a thick wire so that a low impedance connection to ground can be ensured even at high frequencies.

• Holes made in the control panel must be 10 cm (3.94 inch) diameter or less. If the holes are 10 cm (3.94 inch) or larger, radio frequency noise may be emitted. In addition, because radio waves leak through a clearance between the control panel door and the main unit, reduce the clearance as much as practicable. The leakage of radio waves can be suppressed by the direct application of an EMI gasket on the paint surface.

Our tests have been carried out on a panel having the damping characteristics of 37 dB max. and 30 dB mean (measured by 3 m method with 30 to 300 MHz).

(2) Connection of power and earth wires

Earthing and power supply wires for the programmable controller system must be connected as described below.

• Provide an earthing point near the power supply module. Earth the power supply's LG and FG terminals (LG : Line Ground, FG : Frame Ground) with the thickest and shortest wire possible. (The wire length must be 30 cm (11.81 inch) or shorter.) The LG and FG terminals function is to pass the noise generated in the programmable controller system to the ground, so an impedance that is as low as possible must be ensured. As the wires are used to relieve the noise, the wire itself carries a large noise content and thus short wiring means that the wire is prevented from acting as an antenna.

• The earth wire led from the earthing point must be twisted with the power supply wires. By twisting with the earthing wire, noise flowing from the power supply wires can be relieved to the earthing. However, if a filter is installed on the power supply wires, the wires and the earthing wire may not need to be twisted.

EMC, LOW VOLTAGE, AND MACHINERY DIRECTIVES

9.1.3 Cables

The cables pulled out from the control panel contain a high frequency noise component. On the outside of the control panel, therefore, they serve as antennas to emit noise. To prevent noise emission, use shielded cables when pulling out the cables which are connected to intelligent function module and CC-Link Safety remote I/O module and using them outside of the control panel. The use of shielded cables also increases noise immunity. For signal lines (including common line) of intelligent function module and CC-Link Safety remote I/O module, the noise immunity satisfies the standard value on the condition that the shielded cables are used for grounding. If shielded cables are not used or not grounded correctly, the noise immunity does not meet the specified requirements.

(1) Shield grounding processing of shielded cables

• Provide a grounding point on the shielded cable as near the module as possible so that the wiring between the module and grounding point is not induced electromagnetically by the other parts of wiring on the cable.

• Take appropriate measures so that the exposed shield part of the shielded cable, where the cable jacket was partly removed, is grounded to the control panel on the widest contact surface. A clamp may also be used as shown in Figure 9.2. In this case, however, a mask painting is required for the inner wall of the control panel which comes into contact with the clamp.

(1) Ferrite core

A ferrite core has the effect of reducing conduction noise in around 10MHz band and radiated noise in the 30MHz to 100MHz band. It is recommended to fit ferrite cores if shielded cables pulled out of the panel do not provide sufficient shielding effects or if the emission of conduction noise from the power supply line has to be suppressed. It is also recommended to fit a ferrite core to the USB cable which connects the CPU and the personal computer as measures against noise. Regarding the number of winding to the ferrite core, the more the better. The two turns or more is recommended as the number of winding.

Figure 9.10 For number of winding is two turns or more

Note that the ferrite cores should be fitted to the cables in the position immediately before they are pulled out of the panel. If the fitting position is improper, the ferrite will not produce any effect.

9.2 Requirement to Conform to the Low Voltage Directive

The Low Voltage Directive requires each device that operates with the power supply ranging from 50 to 1000VAC and 75 to 1500VDC to satisfy the safety requirements. In Section 9.2.1 to Section 9.2.5, cautions on installation and wiring of the MELSEC-QS series programmable controller to conform to the Low Voltage Directive are described. These descriptions are based on the requirements and standards of the regulation, however, it does not guarantee that the entire machinery manufactured based on the descriptions conforms to the above-mentioned directive. The method and judgment for the conformity to the low voltage directive must be left to the manufacturer's own discretion.

9.2.1 Standard applied for MELSEC-QS series programmable controller

The standard applied for MELSEC-QS series programmable controller is EN61131-2 safety of devices used in measurement rooms, control rooms, or laboratories.

The MELSEC-QS series programmable controller modules which operate at the rated voltage of 50VAC/75VDC or above are also developed to conform to the above standard. The modules which operate at the rated voltage of less than 50VAC/75VDC are out of the Low Voltage Directive application range. For CE-marked products, please consult your local Mitsubishi representative.

9.2.2 MELSEC-QS series programmable controller selection

(1) Power supply module

There are dangerous voltages (voltages higher than 42.4V peak) inside the power supply modules of the 100/200VAC rated input voltages. Therefore, the CE marked models are enhanced in insulation internally between the primary and secondary.

(2) CPU module, base unit

Using 5VDC circuits inside, CPU modules and base units are out of the Low Voltage Directive application range.

10.1 Calculating Heat Generation of programmable controller

LOADING AND INSTALLATION

The ambient temperature inside the panel storing the programmable controller must be

suppressed to an ambient temperature of 55 or less, which is specified for the programmable controller. For the design of a heat releasing panel, it is necessary to know the average power consumption (heating value) of the devices and instruments stored inside. Here the method of obtaining the average power consumption of the programmable controller system is described. From the power consumption, calculate a rise in ambient temperature inside the panel.

How to calculate average power consumption

The power consuming parts of the programmable controller are roughly classified into six blocks as shown below.

(1) Power consumption of power supply module

The power conversion efficiency of the power supply module is approx. 70 %, while 30 % of the output power is consumed as heat. As a result, 3/7 of the output power is the power consumption. Therefore the calculation formula is as follows.

: Current consumption of logic 5 VDC circuit of each module

(2) Total power consumption for 5VDC logic circuits of all modules

(including CPU module)

The power consumption of the 5 VDC output circuit section of the power supply module is the power consumption of each module (including the current consumption of the base unit).

The total of the power consumption values calculated for each block becomes the power consumption of the overall sequencer system.

W = WPW+W

From this overall power consumption (W), calculate the heating value and a rise in ambient temperature inside the panel. The outline of the calculation formula for a rise in ambient temperature inside the panel is shown below.

(1) Power supply wiring

• Separate the programmable controller power supply line from the lines for I/O devices and power devices as shown below. When there is much noise, connect an insulation transformer.

• Taking rated current or inrush current into consideration when wiring the power supply, be sure to connect a breaker or an external fuse that have proper blown and detection. When using a single programmable controller, a 10A breaker or an external fuse are recommended for wiring protection.

Figure 10.21 Power supply connection diagram

• 100VAC and 200VAC wires should be twisted as dense as possible. Connect the modules with the shortest distance. Also, to reduce the voltage drop to the minimum, use the thickest wires possible

(maximum 2mm

• Do not bundle the 100VAC and 200VAC wires with, or run them close to, the main circuit (high voltage, large current) and I/O signal lines (including common line). Reserve a distance of at least 100 mm from adjacent wires.

• Momentary power failure may be detected or the CPU module may be reset due to serge caused by lightening. As measures against serge caused by lightening, connect a surge absorber for lightening as shown in Figure 10.22. Using the surge absorber for lightening can reduce the influence of lightening.
