Mounting Dimensions
1. MOUNTING METHODS
CAUTION
● Plug/disconnect the main unit into/from the
socket vertically to the socket face. Otherwise the
terminals may bend and it may cause bad contact.
● The converter shall not tilt 5 degrees or more in
either direction when installed.
● When the converter is not connected to the socket,
it is necessary to protect the socket against ingress
of dust to the connector part.
● Keep this product in a conductive bag when
plugged out, during transport or storage.
1.1 Wall Mounting
Loosen the main unit-xing screw to disconnect the main unit
from the socket. Next, anchor the socket onto the wall with
screws. Then, plug the main unit into the socket and secure the
main unit with the main unit-xing screw.

1.2 DIN Rail Mounting
Locate the VJUK so that the DIN rail ts into the upper part of the
DIN-rail groove at the rear of the socket, and fasten the socket
using the slide lock at the lower part of the socket.

1.3 Mounting Using a Multi-mounting Base
For mounting using a multi-mounting base, see the user’s manual
for VJCE (VJ Mounting Base).
1.4 Using a Duct
Wiring duct should be installed at least 30 mm away from the top
and bottom faces of the main unit.
2. INSTALLATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITIONS
• Avoid the following environments for installation locations:
Areas with vibrations, corrosive gases, dust, water, oil,
solvents, direct sunlight, radiation, a strong electric eld,
and/or a strong magnetic eld, direct radiant heat, wind,
temperature uctuation, 2,000 m or more above sea level,
outdoors.
• If there is any risk of a surge being induced into the power line
and/or signal lines due to lightning or other factors, a dedicated
lightning arrester should be used as protection for both the
product and a eld-installed device.
• Use indoors at an altitude of 2000 m or less.
• Operating temperature/humidity range: -10 to 55°C (-10
to 45°C for side-by-side mounting*)/5 to 90%RH (no
condensation)
* If the previous model (style S3.xx earlier) is installed
together, the ambient temperature is 0 to 40°C.
• Continuous vibration: (at 5 to 9 Hz) Half amplitude of 3 mm or
less (at 9 to 150 Hz) 9.8m/s2 or less, 1 oct/min for 90 minutes
each in the three axis directions
• Impact: 98 m/s2 or less, 11 ms, 3 axes, 6 directions, 3 times
each
3. EXTERNAL WIRING
WARNING
● To avoid the risk of an electric shock, turn o the
power supply and use a tester or similar device to
ensure that no power is supplied to a cable to be
connected, before carrying out wiring work.
● Do not operate the product in the presence of
ammable or explosive gases or vapors. To do so is
highly dangerous.
● Use of the product ignoring the specications may
cause overheating or damage. Before turning on the
power, ensure the following:
• Power supply voltage and input signal value
applied to the product should meet the required
specications.
• The external wiring to the terminals and wiring to
ground are as specications.
Wiring should be connected to the terminals on the socket of
the product. The terminals for external connections are of M3
screws. Use crimp-on terminal lugs for connections to the
terminals.
• Recommended cables: A nominal cross-sectional area of

CAUTION
● Connect the RJC sensor at the correct position as
shown above. Otherwise temperature cannot be
measured correctly.
● Connect the RJC sensor so that it overlaps the input
signal line.
● Handle the RJC sensor lead with care to prevent
disconnection.
● The power line and input/output signal lines should
be installed away from noise-generating sources.
Otherwise accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
● Make sure to earth ground the ground terminal
through minimum resistance. The length and
thickness of the grounding cable should be as
short and thick as possible. Directly connect the
lead from the ground terminal (terminal no. 8) of
the product to the ground. Do not carry out daisychained inter-ground terminal wiring.
