5: 1st sensor module (2.6)
6: IO module (2.5.4)
1st and 2nd order shown above are reversible. When wiring be sure to remove the shield cover.
After the wiring, screw up the shield cover.
WARNING
Use wiring cables with heat resistance above 75 °C, waterproof rating IP66 or higher.
Four front panel screws should be tightened to the following torque; 1.5 to 1.6 N·m.
For power supply, wire cables with a ammability rating of UL 2556 VW-1 or equivalent.
2-6
WARNING
Always place the shield cover over the power supply and contact terminals for interference
avoidance and safety reasons.
CAUTION
Turn o power supply to FLXA402 before wiring cables.
CAUTION
After wiring of power supply or contact output is completed, put on the shield cover. (see section
2.3)
NOTE
Grounding of shielded cable
The shielded cables are very eective for noise-rejection, but the grounding of the shielded
cables varies depending on the conditions of use.
One side grounding, which grounds only one end of the shield to FLXA402, requires longer
cables and is eective for noise reduction when there is a potential dierence of grounds
between the FLXA402 and the connected device on the other side.
If there is no potential dierence between the FLXA402 and the device on the other side, it may
be more eective to connect to the ground on both sides.
It may also be eective to connect a capacitor in series to one ground while both sids being
grounded.
However, it is assumed that sensors are used with one side grounding. Therefore, be careful not
to use those sensors with both sides grounded.
