Cautions during Use

• Follow instructions in ‘Cautions during Use’. Otherwise, it may cause unexpected accidents.
• The UA power (actuator power) and US power (sensor power) should be insulated by the individually isolated power device.
• Power supply should be insulated and limited voltage/current or Class 2, SELV power supply device.
• Use the rated standard cables and connectors. Do not apply excessive power when connecting or disconnecting the connectors of the product.
• 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 varactor at  power line and shielded wire at input signal line.
  For stable operation, use shield wire and ferrite core, when wiring communication wire, power wire, or signal wire.
• Do not use near the equipment which generates strong magnetic force or high frequency noise.
• Do not connect, or remove this unit while connected to a power source.
• 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 II
