Installation & Usage Notes
- Safety Wiring: Follow EN ISO 13849-1 guidelines; separate safety and standard wiring by ≥10mm
- Terminal Selection: Choose SC terminals for vibration-prone environments; SP/PT for fast maintenance
- Voltage Matching: Ensure control voltage is 24V DC (19.2~28.8V); avoid overvoltage (use fuses if needed)
- Contact Load Matching: Do not exceed 6A AC/3A DC contact rating; use contactors for high-power loads
- Mounting Spacing: Reserve ≥5mm between modules for heat dissipation; avoid direct sunlight
- Maintenance Checks: Regularly inspect terminal tightness (SC/PT) and module status; replace damaged units promptly
- Safety Circuit Testing: Verify safety function (e.g., emergency stop activation) after installation and periodic maintenance
