1 Precautions
The following precautions must be observed whenever a Comm-Link/ER is installed.
1. D-class grounding wiring has to be used. Please an install standard cable for the ground from the ground
terminal in the cabinet. The size of the ground cable must be bigger than that of the power cables (2.0 mm2
or more).
2. An overcorrect circuit breaker must not be installed at the ground wiring.
3. The main power supply must be provided with isolated ground leakage circuit breakers with an over-current
protection function at a location within 3 meters of the main-line junction in the low voltage wiring.
4. Ensure that the ground leakage circuit breaker of the main power supply has a current sensitivity rating of
30mA.
5. The acceptable current of the ground leakage circuit breakers with over-current protection function must be
smaller than that of the main power supply line.
6. Each phase of the main power supply (R and S) must be provided with an isolated ground leakage circuit
breaker.
7. The insulation resistance of the main power supply lines should be no less than 0.1 Mega Ohms.
8. The main power supply cables should be larger than 2.0 mm2and protected by conduits.
9. Please use round terminals and Y terminals with an insulated protection and select those according to the
size of the terminal stands and screws. The terminals should not be bent.
10. The signal cables must be protected by isolated conduits.
11. The signal cables must be separated from the power cables.
12. The Ethernet cables must be separated from the power cables.
13. The main power supply must be provided with isolated ground leakage circuit breakers with an over-current
protection function.
Circuit breaker Current Capacity: 15A
Circuit breaker Current Sensitivity: 30 mA
14. The total length of the twisted-paired cables of the M-NET network must be less than 900 m. When the total
length exceeds 900m you need to install additional option devices. Please consult your closest Miura office
for further information.
15. The CAT5e STP cable (100m or shorter) should be used for Ethernet between devices (device to HUB or HUB
to HUB).

Installing the device in any of the following conditions which can result in damage or malfunction
must be avoided.
1. Locations exposed to direct sunlight or close to something hot.
2. Locations where the ambient temperature is high or fluctuates too much.
3. Dusty or humid locations.
4. Locations where the device may be exposed to a risk of vibration or impact.
5. Locations where chemical vapors are present or the device may come into contact with water or
chemical.
6. Locations close to high voltage power-supply lines or equipment producing strong magnetic fields.
7. Locations where the power supply voltage is not stable.
Please keep a necessary space with which the cover can be opened for maintenance or
troubleshooting.

4.2 Mounting
Please tightly install (4)-anchor bolts (pre-installed or hole-in-anchor bolts) in the wall on which you install the
Comm-Link/ER cabinet. Please see the figure 4-1 for the locations and sizes of the anchor bolts.
4-1 Comm-Link/ER Installation Example
Caution
Please make sure that the wall is strong enough to hold the device when installation
to avoid a serious injury.
Please see the weight on the specification table of section 7.
If the bolt length from the wall is longer than 20 mm please use a special tool to
tighten the nuts such as a deep socket.

5.1 Cable Holes
You should make cable holes at the bottom side of the Comm-Link/ER cabinet to install the power cables,
ground cables, signal cables, and communication cables. Please use wiring protections such as cord bushings.
5.2 Main Power and Ground Wirings
Please establish the power cable connection to the Comm-Link/ER cabinet.
You can refer to the attached “External Wiring Diagram”for the terminal locations of the
Comm-Link/ER cabinet.
You should use AC120V (60Hz) 1φ for the power cables.
You should put a ground label for the main grounded point.

NOTE
D-class grounding installation is required. Please use standard wires (2.0 mm2or more) which are larger
than the main power cables from the ground terminals of the Comm-Link/ER cabinet when those are
installed. You should use a round terminal for the ground cables for which you can swage the core wires
and the cover separately (double swage type).
NOTE
Please use cord bushings which are certified by UL, CSA, or an European certificate organization such as
TUV, VDE, or SEMKO) for the wiring inlet holes of the Comm-Link/ER cabinet to install the wires tight
enough.
The cables should not be moved by 2 mm or more with 100 N tension power after installation.
5.3 Signal Wirings
Please establish the signal cable connection to the Comm-Link/ER cabinet.
You can refer to the attached “External Wiring Diagram”for the terminal locations of the
Comm-Link/ER cabinet.
“Digital/Pulse Input Signals”should be Sync-input type signals. Please use a dry contact signal or
NPN open collector signal for the terminals. Please refer to the attached signal list and section 7.
Specifications for the detail.
“Analog Input Signals”should be 4-20 mA tyle signals. Please use shielded wires (0.75mm2or
more). Please refer to the attached signal list and section 7. Specifications for the detail.
NOTE
The pulse length must be 30 msec or longer when a “Digital /Pulse Input”is used for a pulse signal.

NOTE
The boiler network communication is to be set up as a daisy chain connection with the same terminal
numbers. The cables from the N1 terminal should be connected to another N1 terminal, N2 to N2, and N0
to N0, for instance. The shield wires of twisted-paired cables for either of the end network devices should
be connected to the FC terminal. When the Comm-Link/ER is not one of the end network devices please
remove the end resistor and connect the communication cables as well as others.
NOTE
Ensure that the boiler network communication cables are not bundled together with any power cables
which may cause a communication problem.
* Twisted-Paired Cable Connection Tips
In order to install twisted-paired cables to a terminal block, first please strip the cable insulation cover by 10
mm from the end. While you push the small square hole right next to the round shaped cable connection
hole with a small flat-head screwdriver, you should install the twisted-paired cables into the round shaped
cable connection hole. The twisted-paired cables will be engaged by removing the screw driver.

5.5 Modbus TCP Wirings
The communication cable to the Modbus TCP network needs to be installed to send the Miura boiler system
data to the customer’s system. Please install the Ethernet cable of Modbus TCP to the PROFINET (LAN)
connector port of the Micro controller with the “Figure 5-5 Ethernet Cable Connection”.
Figure 5-5 Ethernet Cable Connection
Cable Specification: Please make sure that a following proper cable is being used.

Specification
CAT5e or higher, STP straight cable (*1)
(Enhanced category 5 or higher, shielded straight cable)
Connector
RJ-45 Connector (available for shielded grounding)
(*1) “STP”--- Shielded Twisted Paired
“UTP”--- Unshielded Twisted Paired
NOTE
When you install Ethernet cables, the cable length between two devices always has to be within 100 m.
Please don’t bundle up power cables and Ethernet cables of the Modbus TCP network for the
installation.

NOTE
Ethernet cables which are generally used for offices or personal uses don’t have the shielding capability.
You should also use connectors which have a shield grounding capability for the Ethernet cables. The shield
will affect the device performance against noise around the device.
