Essential Safety Precautions
All safety-related procedures stated in this document must be followed to operate the PS-B correctly and safely. Be sure to
read this and any related documents thoroughly to understand the correct operation and functions of the PS-B unit.
Safety Icons
Throughout this manual, these icons provide essential safety information for PS-B operation procedures requiring special
attention. These icons indicate the following levels of danger:
System Design
Handling
Indicates situations where severe bodily injury, death or major equipment damage
can occur.
Indicates situations where slight bodily injury or minor equipment damage can
occur.
Indicates actions or procedures that should NOT be performed.
Indicates actions or procedures that MUST be performed to ensure correct unit
operation.
Be sure to design your system so that a communication fault between the PS-B and its host controller will
not cause equipment to malfunction. This is to prevent any possibility of bodily injury or equipment
damage.
Do not use the PS-B with aircraft control devices, aerospace equipment, central trunk data transmission
(communication) devices, nuclear power control devices, or medical life support equipment, due to these
devices’ inherent requirements of extremely high levels of safety and reliability.
When using the PS-B with transportation vehicles (trains, cars, and ships), disaster and crime prevention
devices, various types of safety equipment, and medical devices that are not life-support related, use
redundant and/or failsafe system designs to ensure proper reliability and safety.
Do not disassemble or modify the PS-B unit. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock.
Do not operate the PS-B in an environment where flammable gases are present, since it may cause an
explosion.

3
Wiring
Maintenance
To prevent electrical shock or equipment damage, unplug the PS-B unit’s power cord from the power
supply prior to installing or wiring the PS-B.
Do not use the voltage not specified in the manual. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock.
Do not connect or disconnect Host and PS-B unit communication cables while the PS-B is turned ON.
The PS-B uses a lithium battery for backing up its internal clock data and the battery may explode if it is
replaced incorrectly. When replacement is required, use a Pro-face-designated replacement product.

Unit Disposal
General Safety Precautions
Be sure all cable connectors are securely attached to the PS-B unit. A loose connection may cause
incorrect input or output signals.
Be sure to ground the PS-B unit’s FG wire separately from other equipment FG lines. Also, be sure to use
a grounding resistance of 100Ωor less and a 2mm2or thicker wire, or your country’s applicable standard.
Otherwise, electric shock or malfunctions may result.
Be sure to use only the designated torque to tighten the PS-B unit’s terminal block screws. If these screws
are not tightened firmly, it may cause a short-circuit, fire or incorrect unit operation.
Be sure that metal particles and wiring debris do not fall inside the PS-B unit. They can cause a fire,
malfunction or incorrect unit operation.
Do not reset or turn the PS-B OFF, or insert or remove the CF Card while the PS-B unit’s CF Card or hard
disk is being accessed. Otherwise, CF Card and the hard disk internal data may be damaged or lost.
When the product is disposed of, it should be done so according to your country’s regulations for similar
types of industrial waste.
Do not install the PS-B where the ambient temperature exceeds the specified range. Doing so may cause
a unit malfunction.
To prevent abnormally high temperatures from occurring inside the PS-B, do not restrict or block the PS-B
unit’s rear-face ventilation slots.
Do not operate the PS-B in areas where large, sudden temperature changes can occur. These changes
can cause condensation to form inside the PS-B, possibly causing it to malfunction.
Do not allow water, liquids or metal fragments to enter inside the PS-B unit’s case, since they can cause
either a malfunction or an electric shock. The allowable pollution degree is 2.
Do not operate or store the PS-B in locations where it can be exposed to direct sunlight, high
temperatures, excessive dust, moisture or vibration.

5
Do not operate or store the PS-B where chemicals evaporate, or where chemicals are present in the air.
Corrosive chemicals: Acids, alkalines, liquids containing salt
Flammable chemicals: Organic Solvents
Do not use paint thinner or organic solvents to remove dirt or oil from the PS-B unit’s surface. Instead, use
a soft cloth moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.
After turning OFF the PS-B, be sure to wait a few seconds before turning it ON again. The PS-B may not
operate correctly if it is restarted too quickly.
Due to the possibility of unexpected accidents, be sure to back up the PS-B unit’s data regularly.
