Safety Instructions

Safety Instructions

Safety InstructionsSafety Instructions

 Don’t apply C10-controller to a piezo-electric type partsfeeder.
 Don’t use C10-controller where inflammable material exists. It has not an

explosion-proof structure.

 You should fix the controller firmly on the rigid structure. Otherwise the operator

might be injured by falling down and/or abnormal operation of it.

 Don’t sprinkle C10-controller with water and/or submerge it in water, or cause the

operator injury and/or get an electric shock.

 Before performing any maintenance work, such as opening cover, wiring, replacing fuse

and etc., the electrical supply must be disconnected at the safety disconnect switch.
The electrical circuit inside involves high voltage and the operator should get an
electric shock.

 The electrical power supply to C10-controller must be made through a customer-supplied

safety disconnect switch mounted next to C10-controller.

 Operate C10-controller within the specified range in the contracted specifications,

or it causes it malfunction, damage and/or shorter life time.

 Don’t get on and/or put a thing on the controller, or it results injury by fall, and/or

damage and/or malfunction of it.

 Don’t bruise cords and/or leads. Bending by force, pulling, winding and/or clamping

them cause fire and/or getting an electric shock by leakage and/or mal-conduction,
and/or abnormal operation.

 Wire C10-controller correctly consulting the “Instruction Manual”. Faulty wiring

causes damage and/or abnormal operation of it.

 Before supply C10-controller electrical power, check the wiring.
 C10-controller must be grounded properly without fail. Don’t operate it without

grounding.

-Continued-

Caution

 Please reserve maintenance space around C10-controller and partsfeeder for daily check

and maintenance.

 Don’t install C10-controller dusty area. It has not dust tight structure.
 Please lift C10-controller with its body and/or mounting base. Don’t lift it with a

cable.

 The output frequency range must match that of the partsfeeder or linear feeder drive

unit. Mismatch causes burnout of the coil of the drive.

 Don’t supply C10-controller with electric power through a PWM type inverter, or it

must break C10-controller.

 Don’t run and stop C10-controller frequently. To run and stop it every few minutes

and power supply through an electromagnetic contactor mounted on the power supply make
inner electronic parts deteriorate severely. External operation signal enables it to
run and stop frequently.

 Don’t provide any switch gear on the output line between C10-controller and the drive

unit to run and stop the drive, or C10-controller must be break.
Don’t arc weld on the bowl, chute and trough while C10-controller and the drive unit
are wired, or earth leakage through C10-controller must break it.

 When C10-controller might be used in circumstance and/or conditions that are out of

the supposition of this “Instruction Manual”, and/or use of it might threaten people’s
life and property in danger, consider people’s safety and act on the principle of Safety
First by the margin of the rating and performance.

 When C10-controller might be out of order or become useless, scrap it as an industrial

waste subject to local regulation.

 C10-controller should be installed on a rigid frame in such location as vibration-free,

no heat transfer, dry and no condensation, and not frozen.

 Before connect or disconnect a connector, the electrical power supply must be

disconnected at the safety disconnect switch.
Don’t force a connector, or it causes getting an electric shock by leakage and/or
mal-conduction, damage and/or abnormal operation.

When the Run lamp is blinking see the next articles.

a. Estimated cause: The output voltage has been set for “0”.

Remedy: Set the output voltage.

b. Estimated cause: The output drive frequency of C10-controller is off the resonance

frequency of the partsfeeder.

Remedy: Adjust it near to the resonance frequency up to get enough stroke.

c. Estimated cause: C10-controller stops by “Error”.

Remedy: Resolve the error indicated by “ERROR CODE”. See page 40.
