Cautions during Use
•Follow instructions in ‘Cautions duringUse’. Otherwise, it may cause unexpected
accidents.
•12-48 VDCᜡ power supply should be insulated and limited voltage/current or Class 2,
SELV power supply device.
•Use the product, after 0.8 sec of supplying power.
•Wire as short as possible and keep away from high voltage lines or power lines, to
prevent surge and inductive noise. Do not use near the equipment which generates
strong magnetic force or high frequency noise (transceiver, etc.).
In case installingthe product near the equipment which generates strong surge (motor,
weldingmachine, etc.), use diode or varistor to remove surge.
•This unit may be used in the following environments.
-Indoors (in the environment condition rated in ‘Specifications’)
-Altitude max. 2,000 m
- Pollution degree 2
-Installation category II
