Product specifications
The direct current power supply to combine should be UL approved as follows.
Circuit (of Class2) which is of maximum 30 Vrms (42.4 V peak) or less, with UL1310 Class2 power supply unit or
UL1585 Class2 transformer.
The Pressure Sensor is a UL approved product only if it has a mark on the body.
Use the specified voltage.
Otherwise failure or malfunction can result.
For the details of compressed air quality, refer to ISO 8573-1, 1.1.2 to 1.6.2: 2001.
This can cause operating failure.
If compressed air containing condensate is used, install an air dryer or drain catch before the filter and perform
drainage regularly.
If drainage is not performed regularly and condensate enters the secondary side, it can cause operating failure of
pneumatic equipment.
If regular drainage is difficult, the use of a filter with an auto drain is recommended.
Applicable fluid is air, inert gases and incombustible gases.
Do not use a fluid containing chemicals, synthetic oils including organic solvent, salt and corrosive gases.
Otherwise, damage to the product and malfunction can result.

Wiring
Do not pull the lead wires.
In particular, never lift a Pressure Sensor equipped with fitting and piping by holding the lead wires.
Avoid repeatedly bending or stretching the lead wire, or placing heavy load on them.
Repetitive bending stress or tensile stress can cause the sheath of the wire to peel off, or breakage of the wire.
If the lead wire can move, fix it near the body of the product.
The recommended bend radius of the lead wire is 6 times the outside diameter of the sheath, or 33 times the
outside diameter of the insulation material, whichever is larger.
Replace the damaged lead wire with a new one.
Wire correctly.
Incorrect wiring can break the Pressure Sensor.
Do not perform wiring while the power is on.
Otherwise damage to the internal parts can result, causing malfunction.
Do not route wires and cables together with power or high voltage cables.
Otherwise the product can malfunction due to interference of noise and surge voltage from power and high voltage
cables to the signal line. Route the wires (piping) of the product separately from power or high voltage cables.
Confirm proper insulation of wiring.
Poor insulation (interference from another circuit, poor insulation between terminals, etc.) can lead to excess
voltage or current being applied to the product, causing damage.
Keep wiring as short as possible to prevent interference from electromagnetic noise and surge voltage.
Do not use a cable longer than 30 m.
Wire the DC(-) line(blue) as close as possible to the power supply.
When analog output is used, install a noise filter (line noise filter, ferrite element, etc.) between the
switch-mode power supply and this product.
Environment
Do not use the product in area that is exposed to corrosive gases, chemicals, sea water, water or steam.
Otherwise failure or malfunction can result.
Do not use in a place where the product could be splashed by oil or chemicals.
If the product is to be used in an environment containing oils or chemicals such as coolant or cleaning solvent,
even for a short time, it may be adversely affected (damage, malfunction, or hardening of the lead wires).
Do not use in an area where surges are generated.
If there is equipment which generates a large amount of surge (solenoid type lifter, high frequency induction
furnace, motor, etc.) close to the Pressure Sensor, this may cause deterioration or breakage of the internal circuit
of the Pressure Sensor. Avoid sources of surge generation and crossed lines.
The product is CE marked, but not immune to lightning strikes. Take measures against lightning strikes
in the system.
Mount the product in a place that is not exposed to vibration or impact.

■Definition and terminology
Terms
Meaning
F
F.S. (full span/full scale)
Abbreviation for full span and full scale; means the maximum fluctuation range of
the Pressure switch rated value. For example, when the output voltage is 1 to 5[V],
the F.S. will be 5-1=4[V]. (Reference: 1%F.S.=4 × 0.01=0.04[V])
O
Output impedance
The resistance value of a component between the voltage outputting element and
the output line at the output of the analog voltage output. It is indicated as a
resistance value which is converted in accordance with the condition in which
resistance is directly connected to the voltage output element. There may be an
error in the output voltage depending on this output impedance and the input
impedance of customers' equipment. (Example: If the Pressure switch with output
impedance of 1kΩ is connected to the A/D converter to detect the analog output of
5 V, the detected voltage by the A/D converter becomes 5(V) × 1(MΩ)/(1(kΩ) +
1(MΩ)) ≒4.995(V), and there is an error of approximate 0.005 V.)
R
Rated pressure range
The pressure range in which the Pressure switch satisfies the specifications.
Values over this range can be set if they are within the set pressure range, but
cannot assured the specifications to be satisfied.
Repeatability
Reproducibility of the displayed value for pressure and ON-OFF output operating
point when the pressure changes at a temperature of 25 oC.
Ripple
A type of chattering.
