Product Usage Instructions
Before using the DPU1 / DPU3 digital power controllers, read the user manual carefully and follow the safety instructions to ensure safe and reliable operation.
- Install the device on a panel and ground separately to prevent electric shock or fire.
- Connect the unit within the rated specifications to prevent fire or product damage.
- Use a dry cloth to clean the device and avoid using water or organic solvents which may cause electric shock or fire.
- Avoid exposing the device to flammable/explosive/corrosive gas, high humidity, direct sunlight, radiant heat, vibration, impact or salinity which may result in explosion or fire.
- Check the connections before wiring to avoid fire or product damage.
- Do not connect, repair, or inspect the unit while connected to a power source to avoid electric shock or fire.
- Do not disassemble or modify the unit to avoid electric shock or fire.
- Since leakage current still flows right after turning off the power or in the output OFF status, do not touch the load terminal to avoid electric shock or burn due to high temperature of the surface.
Follow the ordering information provided in the manual to select the specified model. Download the installation file and the manuals from the Autonics website. Use DAQMaster, the comprehensive device management program for Autonics’ products, to manage the device parameters and data.

Cautions during Use
- Follow instructions in ‘Cautions during Use’. Otherwise, it may cause unexpected accidents.
- Use the product, after 3 sec of supplying power.
- Before use, set the mode and function according to the specification. Since changing the mode / parameter during operation may result in malfunction, set the mode and function after disconnecting load output.
- Re-supply the power to the unit after 3 sec of turning off the power. Failure to follow this instruction may result in malfunction.
- To ensure the reliability of the product, install the product on the panel or metal surface vertically to the ground.
- Install the unit in the well ventilated place.
- While supplying power to the load or right after turning off the power of the load, do not touch the body and heat sink. Failure to follow this instruction may result in a burn due to the high temperature.
- Install a power switch or circuit breaker in the easily accessible place for supplying or disconnecting the power.
- Do not wire to terminals which are not used.
- Use twisted pair wire for communication line.
- Do not use near the equipment which generates strong magnetic force or high frequency noise.
- Since inter element can be damaged when using with coil load, inductive load, etc.,
the inrush current must be under the rated load current. - To prevent product malfunction due to noise, wire power, control input,
communication, and load cables separately. - For stable operation, use shield wire for control, alarm, and communication wires.
Use a ferrite core on the shield wire to cope with EMC. - This unit may be used in the following environments.
- Indoors (in the environment condition rated in ‘Specifications’)
- Altitude max. 2,000 m
- Pollution degree 2
- Installation category III
