1. Preface
This instruction manual is intended for those who will be involved in wiring, installation, operation and routine
maintenance of the MAC6 and MAP6.
This manual describes the care, installation, wiring, function, and proper procedures regarding the operation of
MAC6 andMAP6.
Keep this manual on hand while using this device. Please follow the provided guidance.
2. Matters regarding safety
This mark indicates hazardous conditions that could cause damage to equipment and/or facilities. Exercise
extreme caution asindicated.
WARNING
This mark indicates hazardous conditions that could cause injury or death of personnel.
Exercise extreme caution asindicated.
CAUTION
This mark indicates hazardous conditions that could cause damage to equipment and/or facilities.
Exercise extreme caution asindicated.
"NOTE"
This mark indicates additional instructions and/ornotes.
WARNING
MAP6 is designed for controlling temperature, humidity, and other physical subjects in general industrial facilities.
It must not be used in any way that may adversely affect safety, health, or working conditions.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the connected equipment, facilities or the product itself due to a fault of this instrument, safety
countermeasures must be taken before usage, such as proper installation of the fuse and the overheating
protection device. No warranty, expressed or implied, is valid in the case of usage without having implemented
proper safetycountermeasures.

3
CAUTION
●The mark on the plate affixed to the instrument on the terminal nameplate affixed to the case of your
instrument, the mark is printed. This is to warn you of the risk of electrical shock which may result if the
charger is touched while it is energized.
●The external power circuit connected to the power terminal of this instrument must have a means of
turning off the power, such as a switch or breaker. Install the switch or breaker adjacent to the instrument in a
position which allows it to be operated with ease, and with an indication that it is a means of turning off the
power. Use a switch or breaker, which meets the requirements of IEC127.
●Fuse
Since the instrument does not have a built-in fuse, do not forget to install a fuse in the power circuit to be
connected to the power terminal. The fuse should be positioned between the switch or breaker and the instrument
and should be attached to the L side of the power terminal.
Fuse Rating: 250V AC 0.5A medium lagged or lagged type.
Use a fuse which meets the requirements of IEC127.
●Load voltage/current to be connected to the output terminal and the alarm terminal should be within the
rated range. Otherwise, the temperature will rise and shorten the life of the product and/or result in problems with
the product.
●Voltage/current that differs from input specification should not be connected to the input terminal. It may
shorten the life of the product and/or result in problems with the product.
●Input, DI, AI, CT, and FB terminals are not insulated. When use a grounding-type sensor, please do not ground
with those terminals.
●A signal wire's common mode voltage to ground (signal wires other than contact output including power
supply and event) should be less than 30V rms, 42.4V peak, and 60 VDC.
●All the wires for the interior distribution, except for communication and contact output (including power supply
and event), should be less than 30m in length. When the wire's length is 30m or more, or in the case of
outdoor wiring, the suitable measure against a lightning surge is required.
●EMC standard (IEC61326) classifies MAP6 into Class A apparatus. Electromagnetic interference may occur
when MAP6 is used at a business district or in the home. Please use after taking sufficient measures.
●There is a ventilation hole for radiation. Please make sure that the metal won't enter from this hole. It
may be occur abreakdown and fire.
●Do not block the draft hole or allow dust or the like to stick to it. A rise in temperature or insulation
failure may result in a reduction of the life of the product and/or problems with it or may cause a fire.
●It should be noted that repeated tolerance tests against voltage, noise, surge, etc. may lead to deterioration
of the instrument.
●Users are prohibited from remodeling the product or abnormal use thereof.

3. Introductions
3-1. Check beforeuse
Before using MAP6, please check the model code, the exterior appearance and accessories. Also make
sure that there are no errors, impairs and shortages.
Confirmation ofmodel code
Check that the product you ordered is being delivered properly. Check the model code of the main body case
against the following code table.
Check ofaccessories
CAUTION
Handling Instruction
●Do not operate the keys on the front panel with a hard or sharply pointed object. Operate the keys only by
softly touching them with fingertips.
●When cleaning the instrument, wipe it softly with a dry cloth. Never use solvents such as thinner.
NOTE : Please contact our agencies or business offices if you have any problem.
We welcome any kind of inquiry such as defect of the product, shortage of accessory and so on.

4. Installation and Wiring
4-1. Installation (Environmental conditions)
CAUTION
This instrument should not be used in any of the places mentioned below. Selection of these places may result in
trouble with the instrument, damage to it or even a fire.
●Where flammable gas, corrosive gas, oil mist and particles generated.
●Where the temperature is below –10℃ or above 50℃.
●Where the relative humidity is above 90% RH or below the dew point.
●Where highly intense vibration or impact is generated or transferred.
●Near high voltage power lines or where inductive interference can affect the operation of the instrument.
●Where undergo influence of the equipment which generates a high frequency.
●Where the instrument is exposed to dew drops or direct sunlight.
●Where the height more than 2000m.
Note
The environmental conditions belong to the installation category II of IEC664 and the degree of
pollution is II.
4-2. Mounting
●Cut a hole for mounting the controller in the panel by referring to the cutout drawing.
●The panel thickness should be 1.2 to 3.2 mm. (It can be mounted up to 20mm of thickness using attachment)
●MAP6 has pawls of fixing, just press it from the front of the panel.
Note
MAP6 is designed to be mounted on a panel. Do not use it without mounting on the panel.

4-3. External Dimensions and Panel Cutout
External dimension (Unit: mm)
Panel cutout (Unit: mm)
Note:
Proximity attachment by a single hole is possible only in the case of horizontal direction. When an apparatus that
was attached in vertical direction is removed, a dedicated detachment tool is required.

4-4. Wiring
WARNING
●When wiring, make sure to disconnect the power supply. Otherwise an electric shock may result.
●After wiring, do not touch terminals or other charged elements while it is energized. Otherwise an
electric shock may result.
●After wiring, make sure the wiring are correct.
●Make sure that wiring operation is properly done in line with a terminal wire diagram.
●The press-fit terminal must fit an M3.0 screw and have a width of 6 mm or smaller. (Clamp receiving
torque: 0.5 to 0.6Nm)
●For wiring for power supply, use a 600V vinyl insulated wire or cable which is 1mm2or larger in section
or a wire or cable of equivalent for higher performance.
●For Thermocouple input use compensation wire compatible with the type of thermocouple.
●For RTD input the resistance of single lead wire have to be 10Ωor less, and the three wire have to
have same resistance.
●The input signal wire must not be accommodated with a high-voltage power cable in the same wiring
conduit or duct.
●Shielded wire (one-point grounding) is effective to avoid electrostatic induction noise.
●Twisting the input wires at short and equal intervals is an effective way to avoid magnetic induction
noise.
