1. Notice before start-up
FY series controller has got the CE approvals as below:
LDV：D/N EN61010-1
EMC：EN 55 022 1994 /A1：1995/ A2：1997
EN 61 000-3-2：1995 / -3-3：1995
EN 61 000-4-2：1995 / -4-3：1996 / -4-5：1995 / -4-6
1996 / -4-8：1993 / -4-11：1996/ EN 50 204：1995
Please confirm the specification of controller is to totally with your requirement before
using it, also read this manual in detail.
Danger
1. Danger! Electric Shock!
DON'T touch AC power wiring terminals when controller has been
powered!
Keep the power off until all of the wirings are completed!
Warning
1. Please confirm that the AC power wiring to controller is correct, otherwise it will
cause serious damage to the controller. ( uTC52 connected to Pin 1 and 6,
uTC 62, 72, 42, 92 to Pin 1 and 2).
2. Be sure to use the rated power supply (AC85~265V or DC24V), otherwise it would be
cause serious damage to the controller.
3. Please use correct wiring as per diagram for (Input, Output etc).
4. Use M3 screw-compatible crimp-on terminals with an insulation sleeve, as shown
below
3.2mm 3.2mm
Torque : 0.4 N.m (4kgf.cm)
5. Avoid installing controller in following environment:
I. A place where the ambient temperature may exceed the range
0 to 50℃
II. A place where the ambient humidity may exceed the range
from 20 to 90%RH.
III.A place where the controller likely to come into contact with water, oil,
chemicals, steam and vapor.
IV. A place where the controller is subject to interface from static
electricity, magnetism, excessive vibration and electrical noise.
6. For thermocouple (TC) input, use shielded compensating lead wire.
7. For RTD input, use shielded wiring which haslow resistance and
a close resistance match between the 3 wires.
