INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Simple Wire-saving Unit for Leak Detection Sensor
(NPN output type)
EX-FC1
MJE-EXFC1 No.0062-57V
Thank you very much for purchasing Panasonic products.
Please read this Instruction Manual carefully and thoroughly for the correct
and optimum use of this product.
Kindly keep this manual in a convenient place for quick reference.
In case of using sensing devices for prevention of accidents etc. which
damage a human life or properties, be sure to construct the system so
that all of the machinery operates to the safety side. This product itself
does not posses control functions needed for accident prevention or
safety maintenance.
OUTLINE
1
●This is the simple wire-saving unit which can be connected with max. 8
leak detection sensors (NPN output type).
●Even if only one leak detection sensor (NPN output type) is connected to
this product, the output is gained when leak is detected or the sensor is
mounted improperly.
●Since the exclusive snap male connector (SL-CP1) is used for connec-
tion, wire-saving can be easily made.
MOUNTING
3
●In case of using screws
•Mount using M4 pan head screws
with a tightening torque of 0.8N·m
or less. However, in case of side
mounting, make sure to mount the
unit such that the unit stopper faces
front.
Mounting position 1
●Two installation positions are available for the unit mounting base so that
the unit direction can be changed. Install the base at one of them.

(optional).
1. Fit the rear part of the unit mount-
ing base on a 35mm width DIN rail
or the mounting bracket (MS-DIN-3)
(optional).
2. Press down the front part of the
unit mounting base on the 35mm
width DIN rail and t the front part
of the base on the DIN rail.
* For removal, insert a flathead
screwdriver into the DIN rail stop-
per and pull towards yourself.

●This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
●This product is suitable for indoor use only.
●Avoid using the product in an explosive atmosphere because this prod-
uct does not have an explosive-proof protective construction.
●Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring.
●Take care that wrong wiring will damage the product.
●Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating. Take care that
if a voltage exceeding the rated range or an AC power supply is directly
applied, the sensor may get damaged or burnt.
●If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that
the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an
actual ground.
●In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter mo-
tor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground
(F.G.) terminal of the equipment to an actual ground.
●Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines or
put them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to in-
duction.
●Do not use during the initial transient time (approx. 0.5 sec.) after the
power supply is switched on.
●Cable extension is possible up to total 10m with 0.3mm2, or more,
cable. However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as
possible.
●Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling is not applied to the
cable joint.
●Since the output does not incorporate a short-circuit protection circuit,
make sure to use this product within the specification and take care
against wrong wiring.
●In case a surge is generated in the used power supply, connect a surge
absorber to the supply and absorb the surge.
●Make sure to use an isolation transformer for the DC power supply. If
an auto-transformer (single winding transformer) is used, this product or
the power supply may get damaged.
●Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
●Take care that the product does not come in contact with oil, grease or
organic solvents, such as, thinner, etc., strong acid or alkaline.
●This sensor is suitable for indoor use only.

●For details of the hook-up method of the snap male connector (SL-CP1),
refer to the Instruction Manual enclosed with SL-CP1.
Connection method
1. By holding the SL-CP1 with the cable
connected, insert it into the connector
of the EX-FC1 reliably till it stops.
Note: Do not pull out by holding the cable, as this
can result in cable disconnection.

●For the channel that the unit sensor is connected to and the connection
setting switch is set to “ON” side, the error indicator (red) lights up for a
moment when the power is turned on. This is not a malfunction for the
unit because it is caused by characteristic of the sensor.
●Make sure to set the connection setting switch with the connector No. to
which the leak detection sensor is connected, to “ON” side.
●In case both the normal indicator (green) and the error indicator (red)
light up, the connection setting switch with the connector No. to which
the leak detection sensor is connected, is not set to “ON” side. Set the
connection setting switch with the connector No. to which the leak detec-
tion sensor is connected, to “ON” side.
●In case the error indicator (red) lights up, the leak detection sensor de-
tects leak or the connection setting switch is set to “ON” side without
connecting the leak detection sensor. If the connection setting switch is
set to “ON” side without connecting the leak detection sensor, set the
connection setting switch to “OFF” side.
●If the leak detection sensor detects leak or the connection setting switch
is set to “OFF” side in the state that the leak detection sensor is improp-
erly mounted to the mounting bracket, the sensor judges as the output is
ON. Be careful when setting.
