Note Concerning the CE Marking
This document does not guarantee that a mechanical system including this product will comply
with the following standards. Compliance to EMC directive and LVD directive of the entire
mechanical system should be checked by the user / manufacturer.
For more details please contact the local Mitsubishi Electric sales site.
Programmable logic controllers are open-type devices that must be installed and used within
conductive control boxes.
Please use the FX1N Series programmable logic controllers while installed in conductive
shielded control boxes.
Please secure the control box lid to the control box (for conduction).
Installation within a control box greatly affects the safety of the system and aids in shielding
noise from the programmable logic controller.

Notes when using the FX0N-40ER-ES/UL.
This unit may be used as supplied and will be in compliance with the previously identified
standards / directives.However, it is recommended as an additional precaution to reduce
conducted mains terminal voltage emissions when power sources are shared, that an external
mains filter is used. Mitsubishi have tested and would like to recommend the following filters (or
user selected filters which are manufactured / designed/used in a similar manner to those
identified here):
For the most effective use of any filtering system the following configuration should be adopted,
always remembering to keep the filter as close to the power input port as possible. For
example only:
