2-5. Note for external wiring
When wiring for the unit, conrm the load of the device to be connected and the specication of the device
such as a sensor to be connected.
■ Note for when connecting an inductive load.
When connecting an inductive load such as relay coil or solenoid to the I/O terminal of the unit, insert a proper
diode, a surge killer, or a varistor by parallel to the load as indicated in the following gure.
Use a surge killer / varistor for AC and a diode for DC.
* The condition to select a surge protection diode
Forward current : More than the rated current of the load
Reverse breakdown voltage : more than 3 times of the source voltage
■ Note for when you connect a load with inrush current
For an incandescent lamp or a mercury lamp, a inrush current of 10 to 40 times bigger than the rated current
sometimes ows. Measure the inrush current and make sure that the current does not over the limit of the
current for this unit.

■ Note for when connecting with the dry contact input
Do NOT apply a voltage to the contact input because the circuit is only for dry contact. It leads to failure of the
internal circuit.
■ How to connect depending on the output type of PNP or NPN sensor.
When you connect a sensor to the input terminal of the unit, connect as follows depending on the output type.
■ Note for when connecting a sensor which ows leakage current
When you connect a sensor such as a limit switch with LED or a 2 wires proximity switch which ows leakage
current of 1.5mA or more when the power of the sensor is OFF, connect a bleeder resistance R as described in
the following gure to prevent a malfunction by the leakage current.
E : External power voltage (V) I : leakage current (mA) when sensor is OFF
R: Bleeder resistance (KΩ) W : Bleeder resistence allowable electricity P(W)
For example, when you use a sensor with 2mA leakage current by 24V power source, you
can calculate as follows.
R ≦ 7 / (2-1.5) =14(KΩ) P ≧24 x 24 x 3 / 1000 x 14 = 0.12(W)
For this casse, use 12K Ω (1/4W) carbon resistance which is easy to buy.
