High-speed Measurement, Dual

Interval Measurement (Measurement
mode)

The GX/GP has measurement modes to allow high-speed
measurement and simultaneous measurement of slow
and fast signals.
In high-speed measurement, a high-speed AI module
can be installed to achieve measurement at the shortest
interval of 1 ms.
In dual interval measurement, measurement can be
performed by two measurement groups with different scan
intervals.
Various measurements can be performed by changing the
measurement mode according to the measurement target
and measurement conditions.

Loop Control and Program Control
Function (/PG Option)

By installing a PID Control Module (GX90UT), you can
perform PID control of up to 20 loops (up to 6 loops for
the GX10/GP10). In addition to control loop monitoring
and the control group screen for convenient operation,

adjustment using the tuning screen is available.

Adding the /PG option to the GX/GP main unit allows
99 patterns and 99 segments of program patterns to be
stored in the main unit. Further, 32 time events can be set.

Data Storage

There are two ways to store data. One way is to record
measured data at all times (display data and event data).
The other way is to record only when events, such as
alarms, occur (event data). Measured data is saved to
the internal memory at the specified interval. Data in
the internal memory can be saved to the SD memory
card automatically or manually. Measured data can
be transferred automatically to an FTP server over an
Ethernet connection.

Operating Procedure

Power Specialties, Inc. | www.powerspecialties.com | [phone]

22

IM 04L51B01-02EN

• Minimal mechanical vibrations

Install the GX/GP in a location that has minimal

mechanical vibrations. Installing the GX/GP

in a location that is subject to large levels of

mechanical vibration will not only put added stress
on its components, it may also impede ordinary
measurement.

• Level Location

Install the GX/GP in a level location so that it is not

slanted to the left or the right (however, the GX/GP
can be inclined up to 30 degrees backward for panel
mounting).

Note

Condensation may form when moving the GX/GP from
a low temperature or humidity environment to a high
temperature or humidity environment, or when there is a
sudden change in temperature. Temperature or humidity
changes may also result in thermocouple measurement
errors. In these kinds of circumstances, wait for at least
an hour before using the GX/GP, to acclimate it to the
surrounding environment.
The GP20 may tip over if it is tilted more than 10
degrees, front and back.

Do Not Install the Instrument in the Following Places

• Outdoors

• In direct sunlight or near heat sources

Install the GX/GP in a place that is near room

temperature (23°C) and that is not subject to large

temperature fluctuations. Placing the GX/GP in direct
sunlight or near heat sources can cause adverse
effects on the internal circuitry.

• Where an excessive amount of soot, steam, moisture,

dust, or corrosive gases are present
Soot, steam, moisture, dust, and corrosive gases will
adversely affect the GX/GP. Avoid installing the GX/GP
in such locations.

• Near strong magnetic field sources

Do not bring magnets or instruments that produce

electromagnetic fields close to the GX/GP. Operating
the GX/GP near strong magnetic fields can cause
measurement errors.

• Where the display Is difficult to see

The GX/GP uses an LCD screen, so it is difficult to

view the display from an extreme angle. Install the GX/
GP so that the user can view the display directly from
the front.

Installation and Wiring

Installation Location

Install the GX/GP indoors in an environment that
meets the following conditions:

• If hazardous external voltage (30 V AC or 60 V DC or

more) is applied to the output terminals of the GP10/
GP20/GX60, be sure to install it in a location where
people cannot touch the terminals carelessly or in a
panel.

• The GX10/GX20 is designed to be installed in an

instrumentation panel.

• This product is designed as open equipment under the

CSA/UL/EN 61010-2-201 standards. In order to comply
with these standards, install it as follows:

• The GX10/GX20 is designed to be installed in an

instrumentation panel.
Install it in a location where people cannot touch the
terminals carelessly.

• To make the GP10/GP20 comply with the relevant

standard, support the parts of the device other than
the front-panel control area with an instrumentation
panel or the like, and install it in a location where
people cannot touch the terminals carelessly or in a
panel.

• Install the GX60/GM unit in a panel with a door.

• The instrumentation panel or panel used for support

must comply with CSA/UL/EN 61010-2-201 or must
be at least IP1X (degrees of protection) and at least
IK09.

To make panel door lock for GX10/GX20
or install the GP/GX60 systems in a
panel with a door or in a location where
operator or any third person can not
operate the power switch carelessly.
When the power switch of GX/GP
systems under operation be turned on or
off carelessly , it may result the system
down or injury.
Careless operations can be avoided by
applying the slide lock.

• Well-ventilated location

To prevent overheating, install the GX/GP in a well-

ventilated location. For the panel cut dimensions when
arranging multiple GXs, see the next page. When
other instruments are installed next to the GX, follow
the panel cut dimensions to provide adequate space
around the GX. In the case of the portable type, we
recommend that you provide at least 50 mm of space
from the left, right, and top panels.

Installation Procedure

• Using more than the appropriate

torque to tighten the screws can de­form the case or damage the brackets.

• Be sure not to insert foreign objects

or tools into the case through the
mounting bracket holes.

• When you attach the rubber pack­ing, be sure that no portion of it gets
wedged between the GX and the
panel. If the rubber packing is not
attached properly, you will not be able

to achieve sufcient dust proong or
waterproong.

Installation Procedure for the GX10/GX20

Use a steel panel that is 2 mm to 26 mm thick.

1

Insert the GX through the front of the panel.

2

Mount the GX to the panel using the included

mounting brackets as described below.

• Use two mounting brackets to support the top and

bottom or the left and right sides of the case (remove
the stickers that are covering the holes before you
attach the brackets).

• The recommended tightening torque for the mounting
screws is 0.7 to 0.9 N•m.

• Follow the procedure below to mount the GX to the

panel.

• First, attach the two mounting brackets and

temporarily tighten the mounting screws.

• Next, fix the GX in place by tightening the mounting

screws with the appropriate torque. When the GX is
approximately perpendicular to the panel, press the
mounting brackets so that they are in contact with
the case, and fully tighten the mounting screws.

Note

To achieve sufficient dust proofing and waterproofing,
mount the GX in the middle of the panel cut out.

Installation Procedure for the GX60

Use a steel panel that is at least 2 mm thick.

1

Make 6 holes in the panel for the six M4 screws.

2

Fix the unit in place by fastening M4 screws to

the six mounting screw holes. The recommended

tightening torque for the screws is 0.7 to 0.9N•m.

• Take measures to prevent noise from entering the

measurement circuit.

• Move the measurement circuit away from the power

cable (power circuit) and ground circuit.

• Ideally, the object being measured should not

generate noise. However, if this is unavoidable,

isolate the measurement circuit from the object.
Also, ground the object being measured.

• Shielded wires should be used to minimize the noise

caused by electrostatic induction. Connect the shield
to the ground terminal of the GX/GP as necessary
(make sure you are not grounding at two points).

• To minimize noise caused by electromagnetic

induction, twist the measurement circuit wires at
short, equal intervals.

• Make sure to earth ground the protective ground

terminal through minimum resistance.

• When wiring input/output signal cables, observe the

minimum bend radius of the cables. For the minimum
bend radius, use the specifications indicated by
the input signal cable manufacture or six times the
conductor diameter of the input/output signal cable,
whichever is larger.

• When using internal reference junction compensation

on the thermocouple input, take measures to stabilize
the temperature at the input terminal.

• Always use the terminal cover.

• Do not use thick wires which may cause large heat

dissipation (we recommend a cross sectional area of

0.5 mm2 or less).

• Make sure that the ambient temperature remains

reasonably stable. Large temperature fluctuations
can occur if a nearby fan turns on or off.

Wiring

• To prevent electric shock while wiring,

make sure that the power supply is
turned off.

• If a voltage of more than 30 VAC or

60 VDC is to be applied to the output
terminals, use ring-tongue crimp-on
lugs with insulation sleeves on all
terminals to prevent the signal cables
from slipping out when the screws be­come loose. Furthermore, use double­insulated cables (dielectric strength
of 2300 VAC or more) for the signal
cables on which a voltage of 30 VAC
or 60 VDC or more is to be applied.
For all other signal cables, use basic
insulated cables (dielectric strength of
1390 VAC). To prevent electric shock,
attach the terminal cover after wiring
and make sure not to touch the termi­nals.

• Applying a strong tension to the input

and output signal cables connected to
the GX/GP may damage the cables or
the GX/GP terminals. To avoid apply­ing tension directly to the terminals,
x all cables to the rear of the mount­ing panel.

• To prevent re, use signal cables with

a temperature rating of 70°C or more.

• To avoid damage to the GX/GP, do not

apply voltages that exceed the follow­ing values to the input terminals.

Installation and Wiring

• Connecting the input wires in parallel with other

devices can cause signal degradation, affecting all
connected devices. If you need to make a parallel
connection, then

• Turn the burnout detection function off.

• Ground the instruments to the same point.

• Do not turn ON or OFF another instrument during

operation. This can have adverse effects on the
other instruments.

• RTDs cannot be wired in parallel.

Wiring Procedure

A terminal cover is screwed in place on the I/O terminal
block. A label indicating the terminal arrangement is
affixed to the cover.

1. Turn off the GX/GP/GX60, and remove the terminal cover.

2. Connect the signal cables to the terminals.

(Stripped wire)

First, loosen the screw at the front using a flat-blade
screwdriver. Insert the input signal wire into the slit on the
left side of the terminal block, and fasten the screw at the
front.

Note

With a clamp terminal, if you use a single wire whose
diameter is 0.3 mm or less, you may not be able to clamp
the wire securely to the terminal. Take measures to
securely clamp the wire such as by folding the conductor
section that will be connected to the clamp terminal in half.

power supply. Failure to do so may cause electric shock
or damage to the instrument.

• To prevent electric shock, ensure that

the power supply is turned off.

• To prevent re, use 600 V PVC in­sulated wires (AWG20 to AWG16;
JISC3307) or wires or cables with
equivalent or better performance.

• Make sure to earth ground the protec­tive ground terminal through mini­mum resistance before you turn on
the power.

• Use crimp-on lugs (designed for 4

mm screws) with insulation sleeves to
connect both the power cord and the
protective ground.

• To prevent electric shock, be sure to

close the transparent cover for the
power supply wires.

• Provide a power switch (double-pole

type) on the power supply line to
separate the GX/GP from the main
power supply. Use labels to indicate
that this switch is for cutting off the
power supply to the GX/GP and to
indicate ON and OFF.

ground line.

Wiring Procedure (GX10/GX20/GX60)

1. Turn off the GX power supply, and then remove the
transparent power supply terminal cover.

2. Connect the power cord and the protective ground cord
to the power supply terminal. Use ring-tongue crimp­on lugs (for M4 screws) with insulation sleeves. The
appropriate tightening torque for the screws is 1.4 to

1.5 N•m.

Precautions to Be Taken When Connecting the
Power Supply (GP10/GP20/GX60)

Make sure to follow the warnings below when connecting
the power supply. Failure to do so may cause electric
shock or damage to the instrument.

• Before connecting the power cord,

ensure that the source voltage
matches the rated supply voltage of
the instrument and that it is within the
maximum rated voltage range of the
provided power cord.

• Connect the power cord after check­ing that the power switch of the in­strument is turned OFF.

• To prevent electric shock and re, be

sure to use a power cord purchased
from Yokogawa Electric Corporation.

• Make sure to connect protective earth

grounding to prevent electric shock.
Insert the power cord into a grounded
three-prong outlet.

• Do not use an extension cord without

protective earth ground. If you do, the
instrument will not be grounded.

Connection Procedure

1. Check that the GP’s power switch is off.

2. Connect the supplied power cord plug to the power
inlet on the rear panel of the GP or front panel of the
GX60.

3. Ensure that the source voltage is within the maximum
rated voltage range of the provided power cord. Then,
connect the other end of the cord to the outlet. Use a
grounded three-prong outlet.
