x CAUTIONS
This controller has been designed to meet the specifications when used
along with the optional exclusive sensor heads. In case it is used in a
combination that does not use the exclusive sensor heads, not only the
specifications may not be met, but it may also cause an accident, etc.
Hence, always use this controller along with the exclusive sensor
heads.
ӟ Make sure to carry out the wiring in the power supply off condition.
ӟ Take care that wrong wiring will damage the sensor.
ӟ Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
ӟ Use this product 10 min. after the power is supplied. Immediately
on supply of power, the electrical circuit is yet to stabilize, which
may cause variation in measured values.
ӟ Take care that after switching on the power supply, there is a
muting time of 5 sec.
ӟ If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure
that the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is
connected to an actual ground.
ӟ In case noise generating equipment
(switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.) is
used in the vicinity of this product, connect
the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the
equipment to an actual ground.
ӟ Do not run the wires together with high-
voltage lines or power lines or put them in
the same raceway. This can cause
malfunction due to induction.
ӟ The controller cable can be extended up to total 50m with a
0.22mm
2
, or more, cable. However, use a 0.15mm2shield wire for
the analog output cable extension.
ӟ The analog output and the alarm output are not incorporated with a
short-circuit protection circuit. Do not connect them directly to a
power supply or a capacitive load.
ӟ Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
ӟ Take care that the sensor does not come in direct contact with
water, oil, grease, or organic solvents, such as, thinner, etc.
ӟ If the controller is used for a long time, although it becomes hot, this
does not indicate any abnormality. However, if the controller is
used by being enclosed in a control box, make sure that heat is not
trapped inside by providing for heat radiation or cooling by fan, etc.
ӟ The operation panel may get hot. However, this does not indicate
any abnormality.
ӟ This sensor is suitable for indoor use only.

Ұ To remove the sensor head, hold its connector by the outer ring and
pull it straight out. While removing the connector from the controller,
take care not to touch the terminals inside the connector.
Do not pull by holding the cable, as this can result in cable
disconnection.

Notes: 1) The device connected to the analog voltage output (black) should have an
input impedance of 1M or more.
2) The device connected to the analog current output (white) should have a
load resistance of 300 or less.
3) Do not connect an interference prevention I/O wire other than that of

connect together two controllers which have both been set as masters
during interference prevention setting, as this will cause a fault.
