basic maintenance procedures.

POINTS OF CAUTION

■ CONFORMITY WITH UL

•This equipment is suitable for use in a Pollution Degree
2 environment.

•This equipment is to be used with the maximum operat­ing voltage 30 V rms and 42.4 V peak or 60 V DC.

•The equipment musts be mounted inside a suitable fire
enclosure.

•Operating temperature: -40 to +55°C (-40 to +131°F)

•Altitude up to 2000 meters.

■ CONFORMITY WITH EU DIRECTIVES

•Functional insulation is maintained between the input
and output.

•The input voltage across the terminals must be 70 V or
less.

•The equipment must be mounted inside a panel.

•Insert noise filters for the power source, input and output

connected to the unit. COSEL Model NAC-04-472, TDK
Model ZCAT 3035-1330 or equivalent is recommended.

•The actual installation environments such as panel con­figurations, connected devices, connected wires, may af­fect the protection level of this unit when it is integrated
in a panel system. The user may have to review the CE
requirements in regard to the whole system and employ
additional protective measures to ensure the CE conform­ity.

•Install lightning surge protectors for those wires connect­ed to remote locations.

vibration. Do not subject the unit to physical impact.

•Environmental temperature must be within -40 to +85°C
(-40 to +185°F) with relative humidity within 0 to 95%
RH in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.

•Be sure that the ventilation slits are not covered with ca­bles, etc.

■ WIRING

•Do not install cables close to noise sources (relay drive
cable, high frequency line, etc.).

•Do not bind these cables together with those in which
noises are present. Do not install them in the same duct.

■ AND ....

•The unit is designed to function as soon as power is sup­plied, however, a warm up for 10 minutes is required for
satisfying complete performance described in the data
sheet.

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

This unit is calibrated at the factory to meet the ordered
specifications, therefore you usually do not need any cali­bration.
For matching the signal to a receiving instrument or in case
of regular calibration, adjust the output as explained in the
following.

■ HOW TO CALIBRATE THE OUTPUT SIGNAL

Use a signal source and measuring instruments of sufficient
accuracy level. Turn the power supply on and warm up for
more than 10 minutes.

1) ZERO: Apply 0% input and adjust output to 0%.

2) SPAN: Apply 100% input and adjust output to 100%.

3) Check ZERO adjustment again with 0% input.

4) When ZERO value is changed, repeat the above proce­dure 1) – 3).

8 mm 8 mm

CHECKING

1) Terminal wiring: Check that all cables are correctly con­nected according to the connection diagram.

2) Input: Check that the input voltage is within 0 – 100% of
full-scale.

3) Output: Check that the load is within the permissible
limit including wiring resistance.

Load Resistance (Ω) =

(including leadwire resistance)

4) When you check the output signal, connect an ammeter
of which the internal resistance is of 10 Ω max. to the
monitor terminals.

MAINTENANCE

Regular calibration procedure is explained below:

■ CALIBRATION

Warm up the unit for at least 10 minutes. Apply 0%, 25%,
50%, 75% and 100% input signal. Check that the output
signal for the respective input signal remains within accu­racy described in the data sheet. When the output is out of
tolerance, recalibrate the unit according to the “ADJUST­MENT PROCEDURE” explained earlier.
