Warning Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious
injury or death.
Caution Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal
injury or product damage.
Fail-safe device must be installed when using the unit with machinery that may cause
serious injury or substantial economic loss. (e.g. nuclear power control, medical equipment,
ships, vehicles, railways, aircraft, combustion apparatus, safety equipment, crime/disaster
prevention devices, etc.)
Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury, fire, or economic loss.
The unit must be installed on a device panel before use.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in electric shock.
Do not connect, repair, or inspect the unit while connected to a power source.

Do not disassemble or modify the unit. Please contact us if necessary.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in electric shock or fire.
Do not use the unit outdoors.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in shortening the life cycle of the unit, or electric
shock.
When connecting the power input and relay output cables, useAWG20 (0.50mm2) cables
and make sure to tighten the terminal screw bolt above 0.74N·m to 0.90N·m.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire due to contact failure.
Use the unit within the rated specifications.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in shortening the life cycle of the unit, or fire.
Do not use loads beyond the rated switching capacity of the relay contact.

Cautions During Use
Power ON/OFF
The inner circuit voltage rises within 100ms after supplying the power to the unit.
The input is unavailable at this period. Be sure that the inner circuit voltage drops
within 500ms after turning OFF the power.
In case of 24VAC / 24-48VDC model, power supply should be insulated and limited
voltage/current or Class 2 power supply device.
Input signal line
①Shorten the cable from the sensor to the unit.
②Use shield cable when input cable is longer.
③Wire the input signal line separately from power line.
Input logic selection
Before selecting input logic, must cut off the power to counter/timer. Select the input logic
following the instruction.
Contact counting input (counter operation)
If counting speed for counter is high speed mode (1k, 5k, 10kcps) and counting input is
contact, it may cause input signal error by chattering of contact switching.
Set counting speed as low speed mode (1cps or 30cps) for contact counting input.
Testing dielectric voltage or insulation resistance when the unit is installed at control panel
①Isolate the unit from the circuit of control panel.
②Short all terminals of the unit.
Do not use the unit in the following environments.
①Environments with high vibration or shock.
②Environments with strong alkali or strong acid materials
③Environments with exposure to direct sunlight
④Near machinery which produce strong magnetic force or electric noise
This product may be used in the following environments.
①Indoors
②Max. altitude: 2,000m
③Pollution degree 2
④Installation category II
Failure to follow these instructions may result in product damage.
