POINTS OF CAUTION
■NONINCENDIVE APPROVAL OPTION
• This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Div. 2,
Groups A, B, C and D or Non-Hazardous Locations only.
• WARNING! Before You Remove the Unit from Its Base
Socket or Mount It, Turn Off the Power Supply and Input
Signal for Safety.
• WARNING! – Explosion Hazard –
Substitution of Components May Impair Suitability for
Class I, Div. 2.
• WARNING! – Explosion Hazard –
Do Not Disconnect Equipment Unless Power Has Been
Switched Off or The Area is Known To Be Non-Hazardous.
• The equipment was evaluated for use in the ambient tem-
perature and relative humidity as mentioned in ‘ENVI-
RONMENT’ section.
• The input and output wiring must be in accordance with
Class I, Div. 2 wiring methods and in accordance with the
authority having jurisdiction for use in these hazardous
locations.
■CONFORMITY WITH EU DIRECTIVES OR UL
• This equipment is suitable for Pollution Degree 2 and In-
stallation Category II (transient voltage 2500V). Rein-
forced insulation (signal input or output to power input:
300V) and basic insulation (signal input to output: 300V)
are maintained. Prior to installation, check that the insu-
lation class of this unit satisfies the system requirements.
• Altitude up to 2000 meters.
• The equipment must be mounted inside a panel.
• The equipment must be installed such that appropriate
clearance and creepage distances are maintained to con-
form to CE/UL requirements. Failure to observe these
requirements may invalidate the CE/UL conformance.
• The actual installation environments such as panel con-
figurations, connected devices, connected wires, may af-
fect the protection level of this unit when it is integrated
in a panel system. The user may have to review the CE
requirements in regard to the whole system and employ
additional protective measures to ensure the CE conform-
ity.
• Install lightning surge protectors for those wires connect-
ed to remote locations.
■POWER INPUT RATING & OPERATIONAL RANGE
• Locate the power input rating marked on the product and
confirm its operational range as indicated below:
100 – 240V and 85 – 264V AC rating: 85 – 264V
(90 – 264V for UL), 47 – 66 Hz, approx. 3 – 5VA
24V DC rating: 24V ±10%, approx. 3W
11 – 27V DC rating: 11 – 27V, approx. 3W
110V DC rating: 85 – 150V (110V ±10% for UL), approx. 3W
■GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
• Before you remove the unit from its base socket or mount
it, turn off the power supply and input signal for safety.
■CT PROTECTOR
• Temperature of the CT Protector may rise if the signal
conditioner body is left unplugged from the base socket.
Be careful not to get burned when you need to touch it.
■ENVIRONMENT
• Indoor use.
• When heavy dust or metal particles are present in the
air, install the unit inside proper housing with sufficient
ventilation.
• Do not install the unit where it is subjected to continuous
vibration. Do not subject the unit to physical impact.
• Environmental temperature must be within -5 to +55°C
(23 to 131°F) with relative humidity within 30 to 90% RH
in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.
• Be sure that the ventilation slits are not covered with ca-
bles, etc.
■WIRING
• Do not install cables close to noise sources (relay drive
cable, high frequency line, etc.).
• Do not bind these cables together with those in which
noises are present. Do not install them in the same duct.
■AND ....
• The unit is designed to function as soon as power is sup-
plied, however, a warm up for 10 minutes is required for
satisfying complete performance described in the data
sheet.
• With voltage output, do not leave the output terminals
shortcircuited for a long time. The unit is designed to
endure it without breakdown, however, it may shorten ap-
propriate life duration.

CHECKING
1) Terminal wiring: Check that all cables are correctly con-
nected according to the connection diagram.
2) Power input voltage: Check voltage across the terminal
13 – 14 with a multimeter.
3) Input: Check that the input signal is within 0 – 100% of
the full-scale.
Be sure to short the secondary side of CT or turn off the
current at its primary side for preventing the CT from
burning when the cables are to be disconnected from in-
put terminals.
Be sure that the input waveform is sinusoidal to obtain
proper accuracy for model M2CA.
4) Output: Check that the load resistance meets the de-
scribed specifications.
ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
This unit is calibrated at the factory to meet the ordered
specifications, therefore you usually do not need any cali-
bration.
For matching the signal to a receiving instrument or in case
of regular calibration, adjust the output as explained in the
following.
■HOW TO CALIBRATE THE OUTPUT SIGNAL
Use a signal source and measuring instruments of sufficient
accuracy level. Turn the power supply on and warm up for
more than 10 minutes.
1) ZERO: Apply 0% input and adjust output to 0%.
2) SPAN: Apply 100% input and adjust output to 100%.
3) Check ZERO adjustment again with 0% input.
4) When ZERO value is changed, repeat the above proce-
dure 1) – 3).
MAINTENANCE
Regular calibration procedure is explained below:
■CALIBRATION
Warm up the unit for at least 10 minutes. Apply 0%, 25%,
50%, 75% and 100% input signal. Check that the output
signal for the respective input signal remains within accu-
racy described in the data sheet. When the output is out of
tolerance, recalibrate the unit according to the “ADJUST-
MENT PROCEDURE” explained earlier.
