protective conductor terminal of this product to the protective
conductor of the power supply equipment, and do not remove it
during use.
(3) Before Turning On the Power First
Make sure that the power voltage is within the range indicated on
the power label and grounding is done etc. before turning on the
power switch.
(4) Protection of the Terminals
For the terminals of this product, to avoid electric shock, install a
safety device so that user of this product will not touch the terminals
directly.
(5) Installing the safety device
Regarding the use of this product that anticipates a big loss due to
failure of the controller and the peripheral device, always install a
safety device for preventing these losses and implement fail safe
design in the final product.
Do not use it in important in facilities like, human life, atomic energy,
aviation and space.
(6) Do Not Put Hands in this Product
Do not put your hands or tools inside of this product. It may cause
electric shock or injuries.
There is no operation such as pulling out an inner unit or using
tools when using this product.
(7) Turn off the power supply if abnormality occurs

CHINO’s sales office if any abnormal odor, noise or any smoke
occurs, or if this unit becomes high temperature that is too hot to
touch.
(8) No Repair or No Modification
If repair or modification is necessary, contact your dealer or nearest
CHINO’s sales agent. Persons other than service engineers
authorized by our company must not repair or modify this product
with replacing parts.

❐MAIN FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
This product is intended to record the industrial quantities such as temperature, etc. on 180 mm-width chart paper. For the dot-printing
type, up to 12-channel recording and for pen type, up to 3-channel continuous recording is available.
(1) Features
Main features are as follows:
•Recording operation can be started without operations for setting or others depending on specified input conditions.
•Standard input type can be specified among 31 types (18 types for thermocouple, 6 types for DC voltage, and 7 types for resistance
thermometer).
The input type and scale width can be specified from 10 ranges of DC voltage, 26 ranges of thermocouple, and 6 ranges of
resistance thermometer other than standard input types.
•Universal power supply input is available. The measuring power voltage range is 100 to 240 VAC and 50 Hz/60 Hz.
•Any operations can be executed at the front. For inkpad replacement of the dot-printing type, pull out the inner unit to the position of
the middle stopper (it cannot be pulled out after the middle stopper position) then perform the replacement. For cartridge pen
replacement of the pen type, pulling out the inner unit is unnecessary.

2. INSTALLATION 2.1. Mounting Place
Place this instrument in the following place not to affect the measuring accuracy and recording operation adversely.
(1) Industrial Environment
Select a place being separated from electric field and magnetic field generation sources and also free of mechanical vibrations and
shocks.
•Overvoltage category II (EN standard)
•Pollution degree 2 (EN standard)
•Altitude 2000 m or less
•Working place Indoors
(2) Environmental Temperature and Humidity
Avoid exposing this instrument to the direct sunlight, and avoid sealing around it to prevent temperature rise.
•It is desired to place it in where the ambient temperature is stable at about 23 °C and the humidity is stable at about 50 % RH.
•Place it in where free of being exposed to hot blast (70 °C or higher) and not exceeding the condition of ambient temperature (0 to
50 °C) for preventing failure and deformation of it.
•Place it in where being free of a heat source near its terminals and out of the wind for reducing measuring errors.
(3) Atmosphere
•Avoid using this instrument in an inflammable gas atmosphere for safety.
•Avoid using this instrument in any place where dust, smoke, vapor, and other substance exist.
(4) Mounting Angle
•Lateral tilting: 0 to 10 degrees
•Longitudinal tilting: Forward tilting: 0 degrees
Backward tilting: 0 to 30 degrees
A mounting angle other than the specification above may affect
recording performance.
30 degrees or less
•Substance example: Organic gas, Inorganic substances such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia gas, and Low-molecular
siloxane
Mechanical relay is used for input switching of this product, and it may cause contact point failure with the above substances.
Many silicone-related materials include low-molecular siloxane; therefore, attention is necessary under the environment where
a lot of silicone-related adhesion bond, coating materials, and others are used. The low-molecular siloxane included in
adhesion bond and coating materials strips in the air for a certain period even during and after hardening.
If you are worried about impact of these substances, contact your nearest CHINO’s sales agent.
Substances which Affect Instrument
After the instrument is exposed in the atmosphere with even slight sulfur components for a long time period in the state of
power switch off, it may not be powered on even the power switch is turned on. This symptom occurs because sulfidizing film
generated on the connection surface of the power switch causes contact failure. If the power switch is turned on and off
several times, the generated sulfidizing film breaks and the instrument recovers.
However, if it is exposed in the atmosphere of sulfur components for a long time period, electronic parts other than the power
switch are affected and cause failures. Avoid using it in the atmosphere of even slight sulfur components.

3. Insert the hexagon head of the mounted fixing screws into the
round hole of the attached mounting brackets from the both
sides of the case.
4. Like the figure below, slide down the mounting bracket, press
this instrument to the panel from the front for close attachment,
and tighten up the fixing screws with the attached screw
wrench (tightening torque: 2 N・m Figure right).

2. INSTALLATION 2.4 Release of Shipping Status
(1) De-installation of Fixing Paper
A fixing paper is installed inside the instrument to prevent damage (damage to the front glass and to recording mechanism) on
transportation (Figure below). It is for the inner unit so as not to fall out and for the recording mechanism so as to be fixed.
