be impossible to detect high frequency vibration.
(12) Do not disassemble the sensor. It may not operate correctly.
(13) Be careful of incorrect wiring or short circuit for wiring.
(14) Do not use the preamplifier connected to the other products.
(15) If there is a vibration reduction device such as dampers and rubbers between the vibration mea-
surement object and the sensor, it is difficult to detect the vibration and it will not be able to measure it correctly, so do not install as much as possible.
(16) In the case of insertion and removal of connector, be sure to do it by holding the connector with
hands.
(17) Do not remove the connector with holding the cable.
(18) Check the direction of the key groove before you use the connector.
(19) Do not wire with wet hands. It may result in operation failure or product damage when power is
being supplied to the product.

the tool like plier is used.
(21) In the case of removal of the fitness of the connector between the sensor and the preamplifier, be
careful to do it not to adhere water or dirt on the fitting surface. It may result in faulty contact at the
connector.
(22) Install cables to avoid any force is applied to the connector. In case the any force is applied to the
connector, it causes that the performance of protection structure (IP67G) becomes incapable.
(23) Do not use the connector as a scaffold or put heavy objects on it. It may result in connector dam-
age.
10
K6CM Motor Condition Monitoring Device User’s Manual (N219)
Precautions for Correct Use
(24) Do not mount the way that the force is directly applied to the fitting part of the connector or the root
part of the cable connection. It may result in connector damage or cable disconnection.
(25) When bending cables, use cables with a minimum bending radius of 25 mm.
(26) Use preamplifier after it is fixed on the DIN rail or with screws. In case of using unfixed one, it is in
the condition that force is easily applied to the cable, and the cable may be broken.
(27) About oil-resistance of sensor head/cable; (Not tested by UL)
Follow the procedure below in case of using the product under the condition that uses cutting oil
since the life expectancy and the performance of the product are affected.
• Use the product in the specified condition for cutting oil
• Use the product at the dilution rate of cutting oil that is recommended by the cutting oil makers.
• Do not use the product in oil or water.
There are cases that the influence on the life expectancy of the product differs depending on the
type of the use oil. Make sure in advance that there is no deterioration of the sealing material by the
cutting oil, before using the product.
The followings are for K6CM-IS and K6CM-CI.
(28) Error will be large if the product is used for thyristor control.
(29) Do not use the alarm output function for control. This function can be used only to detect abnormal
conditions and to output the alarm.
(30) Avoid using the product in places near a radio, a television set, or a wireless device.
The product may result in radio disturbance for these devices.
(31) Make sure that the rating of the used CT and the CT setting of the product agree.
(32) Do not ground the specified CT. Doing so may cause instability when measuring failure.
(33) Do not clamp directly to the lines exceeding 600 VAC.
(34) Use ZCT (IRT) after fixing it with screws. If used without fixing, a load is easily applied on the cable,
and the cable may become disconnected.
The followings are only for K6CM-IS.
(35) ZCT (IRT) is an special product. Do not use it for any other purposes. Otherwise, failure may occur.
(36) When clamping wires with ZCT (IRT), do it in a right direction. If clamped in the wrong direction,
correct measurement cannot be taken.
(37) The distorted ratio of the input waveform should be 30% or less. If it is used in a circuit with large
distortion of waveform, it may cause unnecessary operation.

*1. The dedicated cable between the sensor head and the pre-amplifier is 2.9 m long. It cannot be extended.The
sensor head and the pre-amplifier are calibrated and inspected as a set at the factory shipment. Be sure to
use them with the combination shipped. For details, refer to Installation of the Vibration Sensor Head on page
5-7.
*2. The dedicated attached cable between the pre-amplifier and the K6CM device is 1 m. It can be extended up
to a maximum length of 100 m. Refer to A-5 Individual Specifications of the Dedicated Sensor on page A-10
for recommended cables.
Note When you use an inverter to drive the motor, you may not be able to check the degradation tendency of
the motor. However, under the following conditions, changes in acceleration are more likely to be confirmed.
• When the inverter driving frequency is 50 Hz or more and the frequency is stable
• When the carrier frequency of the inverter is 12.5 kHz or more and the frequency is stable
Use an inverter after trying according to your installation environment.

Also, there is no designation in the phase to be installed. Be careful of the installation direction stated on the
CT label and mount it to any one phase.
Note The level of degradation may vary when the motor is driven by the inverter. In that case, slightly shift the
inverter drive frequency.
Also always measure and monitor the level of degradation at the same inverter drive frequency.
Mount a dedicated CT between the motor and the inverter.
