!WARNING It is extremely important that a PLC and all PLC Units be used for the speci-
fied purpose and under the specified conditions, especially in applications that can directly or indirectly affect human life. You must consult with your OMRON representative before applying a PLC System to the above-mentioned appli­cations
!WARNING This is the Operation Manual for the NE1A-series Safety Network Controllers.
Heed the following items during system construction to ensure that safety­related components are configured in a manner that allows the system func­tions to sufficiently operate.
• Risk Assessment
The proper use of the safety device described in this Operation Manual as it relates to installation conditions and mechanical performance and func­tions is a prerequisite for its use. When selecting or using this safety de­vice, risk assessment must be conducted with the aim of identifying potential danger factors in equipment or facilities in which the safety device is to be applied, during the development stage of the equipment or facili­ties. Suitable safety devices must be selected under the guidance of a suf­ficient risk assessment system. An insufficient risk assessment system may lead to the selection of unsuitable safety devices.

Safety Precautions 3

3 Safety Precautions

!WARNING
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. Do not use the NE1A-series Controller's test outputs as safety outputs.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. Do not use DeviceNet standard I/O data, EtherNet/IP standard I/O data or explicit message data as safety data.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. Do not use indicators or 7-segment display on the NE1A-series Controller for safety operations.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to breakdown of safety outputs or test outputs. Do not connect loads beyond the rated value to the safety outputs and test outputs.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. Wire the NE1A-series Controller properly so that the 24-VDC line does NOT touch the outputs accidentally or unintentionally.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. Ground the 0-V line of the power supply for external output devices so that the devices do NOT turn ON when the safety output line or the test output line is grounded.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. Clear previous configuration data before connecting the devices to the network.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. Set suitable node addresses and a suitable baud rate before connecting the devices to the network.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. Per­form user testing and confirm that all of the device configuration data and oper­ation is correct before starting system operation.
Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions. When replacing a device, configure the replacement device suitably and confirm that it operate correctly.

4 Precautions for Safe Use

Handling with Care
Do not drop the NE1A-series Controller or subject it to excessive vibration or mechanical shock. The NE1A-series Controller may be damaged and may not function properly.
Installation and Storage Environment
Do not use or store the NE1A-series Controller in any of the following loca­tions:
• Locations subject to direct sunlight
• Locations subject to temperatures or humidity outside the range specified in the specifications
• Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in tem­perature
• Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases
• Locations subject to dust (especially iron dust) or salts
• Locations subject to water, oil, or chemicals
• Locations subject to shock or vibration
Take appropriate and sufficient measures when installing systems in the fol­lowing locations. Inappropriate and insufficient measures may result in mal­function.
• Locations subject to static electricity or other forms of noise
• Locations subject to strong electromagnetic fields
• Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity
• Locations close to power supplies
Installation and Mounting
• Use the NE1A-series Controller within an enclosure with IP54 protection or higher according to IEC/EN 60529.
• Use DIN rail (TH35-7.5/TH35-15 according to IEC 60715) to install the NE1A-series Controller into the control panel. Mount the NE1A-series Controller to the DIN rail using PFP-M End Plates (not included with the NE1A-series Controller) to prevent it falling off the DIN rail because of vibration.
• Space must be provided around the NE1A-series Controller, at least 5 mm from its side and at least 50 mm from its top and bottom surfaces, for ventilation and wiring.
Installation and Wiring
• Use the following to wire external I/O devices to the NE1A-series Control­ler.
Solid wire Stranded (flexi-
ble) wire
0.2 to 2.5 mm
0.34 to 1.5 mm

Additional Precautions According to UL 1604 5
• Disconnect the NE1A-series Controller from the power supply before starting wiring. Devices connected to the NE1A-series Controller may operate unexpectedly.
• Properly apply the specified voltage to the NE1A-series Controller inputs. Applying an inappropriate DC voltage or any AC voltage will cause the NE1A-series Controller to fail.
• Be sure to separate the communications cables and I/O cables from near high-voltage/high-current lines.
• Be cautious not to get your fingers caught when attaching connectors to the plugs on the NE1A-series Controller.
• Tighten the DeviceNet connector screws correctly (0.25 to 0.3 N·m).
• Incorrect wiring may lead to loss of safety functions. Wire conductors cor­rectly and verify the operation of the NE1A-series Controller before using the system in which the NE1A-series Controller is incorporated.
• After wiring is completed, be sure to remove label for wire clipping preven­tion on the NE1A-series Controller to enable heat to escape or proper cooling.
Power Supply Selection
Use a DC power supply satisfying the following requirements.
• The secondary circuits of the DC power supply must be isolated from the primary circuit by double insulation or reinforced insulation.
• The DC power supply must satisfy the requirements for class 2 circuits or limited voltage/current circuits given in UL 508.
• The output hold time must be 20 ms or longer.
Periodic Inspections and Maintenance
• Disconnect the NE1A-series Controller from the power supply before replacing the Controller. Devices connected to the NE1A-series Controller may operate unexpectedly.
• Do not disassemble, repair, or modify the NE1A-series Controller. Doing so may lead to loss of safety functions.
Disposal
• Be cautions not to injure yourself when dismantling the NE1A-series Con­troller.

5 Additional Precautions According to UL 1604

The NE1A-series Controller is suitable for use in Class I, Div. 2, Group A, B, C, D or Non-Hazardous Location Only.
WARNING - Explosion Hazard - Substitution of Components May Impair Suit­ability For Class I, Div. 2.
WARNING - Explosion Hazard - Do Not Disconnect Equipment Unless Power Has Been Switched OFF or the Area Is Known To Be Non-Hazardous.
WARNING - Explosion Hazard - Do Not Disconnect USB Connector Unless Power Has Been Switched OFF or the Area Is Known To Be Non-Hazardous.

7 Unit Versions of NE1A-series Controllers

Checking the Unit Version
A “unit version” has been introduced to manage NE1A-series Safety Network Controllers according to differences in functionality accompanying Unit upgrades even though the model numbers are the same. The unit version can be checked on the product itself or using the Network Configurator.
Note The Network Configurator maintains a revision number to manage device
functions for DeviceNet and EtherNet/IP. Refer to Checking the Unit Version with the Network Configurator on page xxiv for the relationship between NE1A-series Controller unit versions and the revisions.
Checking the Unit Version on the Product Nameplate
The unit version (Ver. @.@) is listed near the lot number on the nameplate of the products for which unit versions are being managed, as shown below.
• Unit versions for the NE1A-SCPU01 and NE1A-SCPU02 start at unit ver­sion 1.0.
• Controllers that do not have a unit version listed on the label are called Pre-Ver. 1.0 Controllers.
• Unit versions for the NE1A-SCPU01-EIP and NE1A-SCPU02-EIP start at unit version 1.0.
