    Failure to follow this instruction may resultin fire or electric shock.
  5. Check ‘Connections’ before wiring.
    Failure to followthis instruction may resultin fire.
  6. Do not disassemble or modify the unit.
    Failure to follow this instruction may resulting fire or electric shock.

Warning Icon Caution Failure to follow instructions may resultin injury or product damage

  1. When connecting the powerinput and relay output, use AWG 20 (0.50 mm2 ) cable or over and tighten the terminal screw with a tightening torque of 0.74 to 0.90 N m. When connecting the sensor input and communication cable without dedicated cable, use AWG 28 to 16 cable and tightenthe terminal screw wit a tightening torque of 0.74 to 0.90 N m.
    Failure to followthis instruction may resultin fire or malfunction due to contact failure.
  2. Use the unit within the rated specifications.

    Failure to follow this instruction may resultin fire or electric shock.
  4. Keep the product away from metal chip, dust, and wire residue which flow into the unit.
    Failure to follow this instruction may resultin fire or product damage.

Cautions during Use

  • Follow instructions in ‘Cautions during Use’. Otherwise, it may cause unexpected
    accidents.
  • Check the polarity of the terminals before wiring the temperature sensor. For RTD
    temperature sensor ,wire it as 3-wire type, using cables in same thickness and length. For thermocouple (TC)temperature sensor, use the designated compensation wire for
    extending wire.
  • Keep away from high voltage lines or power lines to prevent inductive noise. In case installing power line and input signal line closely, use line filter or visitor at power line and shielded wire at input signal line. Do not use near the equipment which generates strong magnetic force or high frequency noise.
  • Install a power switch or circuit breaker in the easily accessible place for supplying or disconnecting the power.
  • Do not use the unit for other purpose (e.g. voltmeter, ammeter), but temperature controller.
  • When changing the input sensor, turn off the power first before changing. After changing the input sensor, modify the value of the corresponding parameter.
  • 24 VACᜠ, 24-48 VDCᜠ power supply should be insulated and limited voltage/current or Class 2, SELV power supply device.
  • Make a required space around the unitforradiation of heat. For accurate temperature measurement, warm up the unit over 20 min afterburning on the power.
  • Make sure that power supply voltage reaches to the rated voltage within 2 sec after supplying power.
  • Do not wire to terminals which are not used.
  • This unit may be used in the following environments.
    • Indoors (in the environment condition rated in ‘Specifications’)
    • AltitudeMax. 2,000 m
    • Pollution degree 2
    • Installation category II

Parameter Setting

  • Some parameters are activated/deactivated depending on the model or setting of other parameters. Refer to the description of each item.
  • The setting range in parentheses is for using the decimal point display in the input specification.
  • If there is no key input for more than 30 seconds in each parameter, it returns to RUN mode.
  • When pressing the [MODE] key within 1 second after returning to the operation mode from the parameter group, it will enter the parameter group before returning.
  • [MODE] key: Saves the current parameter setting value and moves to the next parameter. [◀] key: Moves the column when changing the set value [▲], [▼] keys: Selects the parameter / Changes the set value
  • Recommended parameter setting sequence: Parameter 2 group → Parameter 1 group → SV setting mode ■ Parameter 1 group
  • Only appears at control output model
