standards below) and design analysis (through the creation of a technical construction
file) to the European Directive for Electromagnetic Compatibility (2014/30/EU) when
used as directed by the appropriate documentation.
Attention
This product is designed for use in industrial applications.
Type: Programmable Controller (Open Type Equipment)
Models: MELSEC FX3U series manufactured
from August 1st, 2005 FX3U-64DP-M
Caution for Compliance with EC Directive
Installation in Enclosure
Programmable controllers are open-type devices that must be installed and used
within conductive control cabinets. Please use the programmable controller while
installed within a conductive shielded control cabinet. Please secure the cabinet
door to the control cabinet (for conduction). Installation within a control cabinet
greatly affects the safety of the system and aids in shielding noise from the
programmable controller.
Control cabinet
- The control cabinet must be conductive.
- Ground the control cabinet with the thickest possible grounding cable.
- To ensure that there is electric contact between the control cabinet and its door,
connect the cabinet and its doors with thick wires.
- In order to suppress the leakage of radio waves, the control cabinet structure
must have minimal openings. Also, wrap the cable holes with a shielding cover or
other shielding devices.
- The gap between the control cabinet and its door must be as small as possible by
attaching EMI gaskets between them.
*1 These wires are used to improve the conductivity between the door and control
cabinet.
Caution for wiring
For noise prevention please attach at least 50 mm (1.97") of the twisted-pair cable
along the grounding plate to which the ground terminal is connected.
For details of wiring, refer to Section 3.2

INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS
Cut off all phases of the power source externally before starting the installation
or wiring work, thus avoiding electric shock or damages to the product.
INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS
Use the product in the environment within the general specifications
described in the PLC main unit manual (Hardware Edition).
Never use the product in areas with dust, oily smoke, conductive dusts,
corrosive gas (salt air, Cl2, H2S, SO2or NO2), flammable gas, vibrations or
impacts, or expose it to high temperature, condensation, or wind and rain.
If the product is used in such a place described above, electrical shock, fire,
malfunction, damage, or deterioration may be caused.
Install the product securely using the DIN rail or screws.
Install the product on a flat surface.
If the mounting surface is rough, undue force will be applied to the PC board,
thereby causing nonconformity.
When drilling screw holes or wiring, make sure or cutting or wire debris does
not enter ventilation slits.
This may cause fire, failures, or malfunctions.
Be sure to remove the dust proof sheet from the PLC's ventilation slits when
the installation work is completed.
Failure to do so could cause fires, equipment failures, and malfunctions.
Fit the extension cables and communication cables securely to the
designated connectors.
Contact failures may cause malfunctions.
Do not touch the conductive parts of the product directly, tin order to avoid
failure or malfunction.
3. Wiring
3.1 Applicable Cable and Connector
The following table shows the applicable cable and connector for PROFIBUS-DP
network.
3.2 Wiring
To connect the 64DP-M to a PROFIBUS-DP network, use only the PROFIBUS
connector and shielded twisted-pair PROFIBUS cable complying with EN50170.
DESIGN
PRECAUTIONS
Make sure to observe the precautions below in order to prevent any damage
to a machine or any accident which might be caused by abnormal data
written in the PLC due to the influence of noise:
1) Do not lay wires close or bundle with the main circuit, high-voltage power
line, or load line.
Otherwise effects of noise or surge induction are likely to take place.
Keep a safe distance of more than 100 mm (3.94") from the above when
wiring.
2) Ground the shield wire or shield of a shielded cable at one point on the
PLC. However, do not ground at the same point as high voltage lines.
Install in a manner which prevents excessive force from being applied to the
connectors for peripheral device connections.
Failure to do so may result in wire breakage or failure of the PLC.
WIRING
PRECAUTIONS
Cut off all phases of power source externally, before installation or wiring
work in order to avoid electric shock or damage of product.
WIRING
PRECAUTIONS
Never let cutting chips and wire chips enter the ventilation slits of this product
or PLC when performing wiring.
Otherwise, fire, failure, or malfunction may occur.
When drilling screw holes or wiring, cutting chips or wire chips should not
enter ventilation slits. This may cause fire, failures, or malfunctions.

3.3 Grounding
Grounding should be performed as stated below.
The grounding resistance should be 100or less.
Independent grounding should be performed for best results.
When independent grounding is not performed, perform "shared grounding" of the
following figure.
For details, refer to the FX3U Series User's Manual - Hardware Edition.
For details, refer to the FX3UC Series User's Manual - Hardware Edition.
The grounding wire size should be as follows.
The grounding point should be close to the PLC, and all grounding wire should be
as short as possible.
3.4 Bus Terminator
The units at each end of the PROFIBUS-DP network must have a bus terminator. This
will either be in the DP-Master or DP-Slave unit or in the PROFIBUS connector.
However, the 64DP-M does not have a terminating resistance built-in.
4. Specifications
PLC Type Grounding Wire Size
FX3U Series PLC AWG 14 (2 mm2) or larger
FX3UC Series PLC AWG 22-20 (0.3 to 0.5 mm2)
DESIGN
PRECAUTIONS
Provide a safety circuit on the outside of the PLC so that the whole system
operates to ensure the safety even when external power supply trouble or PLC
failure occurs.
Otherwise, malfunctions or output failures may result in an accident.
1) An emergency stop circuit, a protection circuit, an interlock circuit for opposite
movements, such as normal and reverse rotations, and an interlock circuit for
preventing damage to the machine at the upper and lower positioning limits
should be configured on the outside of the PLC.
2) When the PLC CPU detects an error, such as a watch dog timer error, during
self-diagnosis, all outputs are turned off. When an error that cannot be
detected by the PLC CPU occurs in an input/output control block, output
control may be disabled.
Design external circuits and mechanisms to ensure safe operations of the
machine in such a case.
3) When some sort of error occurs in a relay, triac or transistor of the output unit/
block, output may be kept on or off.
For output signals that may lead to serious accidents, design external circuits
and mechanisms to ensure safe operations of the machine.
DESIGN
PRECAUTIONS
Make sure to observe the precautions below in order to prevent any damage to a
machine or any wires accident which might be caused by abnormal data written in
the PLC due to the influence of noise:
1) Do not lay close or bundle with the main circuit, high-voltage power line, or load
line.
Otherwise effects of noise or surge induction are likely to take place.
Keep a safe distance of more than 100 mm (3.94") from the above when
wiring.
2) Ground the shield wire or shield of a shielded cable at one point on the PLC.
However, do not ground at the same point as high voltage lines.
Install in a manner which prevents excessive force from being applied to the
connectors for peripheral device connections.
Failure to do so may result in wire breakage or failure of the PLC.
STARTUP AND
MAINTENANCE
PRECAUTIONS
Do not touch any terminal while the PLC’s power is on.
Doing so may cause electrical shock or malfunctions.
Before cleaning or retightening terminals, externally cut off all phases of the power
supply. Failure to do so may expose you to shock hazard.
Before modifying the program under operation or performing operation for forcible
output, running or stopping, carefully read the manual, and sufficiently ensure the
safety. An operation error may damage the machine or cause accidents.
STARTUP AND
MAINTENANCE
PRECAUTIONS
Do not disassemble or modify the unit.
Doing so may cause failure, malfunction or fire.
* For repair, contact your local Mitsubishi Electric representative.
Do not drop the product or do not exert strong impact, as doing so may cause
damage.
Before connecting or disconnecting any extension cable, turn off power.
Failure to do so may cause unit failure or malfunctions.
