Safety Precautions
Be sure to read The Safety Precautions for All I/O Relay Terminals in the website at the following URL:
http://www.ia.omron.com/.
Warning Indications
Transportation
• Do not transport the I/O Relay Terminal under the following
locations. Doing so may occasionally result in damage,
malfunction, or deterioration of performance characteristics.
• Locations subject to water or oil
• Locations subject to high temperature or high humidity
• Locations subject to condensation due to rapid changes in
temperature
Operating and Storage Environments
• Do not use or store the I/O Relay Terminal in the following
locations. Doing so may result in damage, malfunction, or
deterioration of performance characteristics.
• Locations subject to rainwater or water splashes
• Locations subject to exposure to water, oil, or chemicals
• Locations subject to high temperature or high humidity
• Locations subject to ambient storage temperatures outside the
range −40 to 65°C
• Locations subject to ambient operating temperatures outside the
range −40 to 55°C
• Locations subject to relative humidity outside the range 35% to
85% or locations in which condensation may occur due to rapid
changes in temperature
• Locations subject to corrosive gases or inflammable gases
• Locations subject to dust, salts, or iron, or locations where there
is salt damage
• Locations subject to direct sunlight
• Locations subject to shock or vibration
Installation and Mounting
• Mount the I/O Relay Terminal in the specified direction. Otherwise
excessive heat generated by the I/O Relay Terminal may
occasionally cause burning.
• Mount the I/O Relay Terminal firmly to a DIN Track. Otherwise, the
I/O Relay Terminal may fall off.
• Do not handle the I/O Relay Terminal with oily or dusty (especially
iron dust) hands.
• Make sure that there is no excessive ambient temperature rise due
to the heat generation of the I/O Relay Terminal. If the I/O Relay
Terminal is mounted inside a panel, install a fan so that the interior
of the panel is fully ventilated.
Installation and Wiring
• Use wires that are suited to the load current and voltage.
Otherwise, excessive heat generated by the wires may cause
burning or may cause the wire covering to melt, possibly leading to
electric shock.
• Do not use wires with a damaged outer covering. Otherwise, it may
result in electric shock or ground leakage.
• Do not wire any wiring in the same duct or conduit as power or
high-tension lines. Otherwise, inductive noise may damage the I/O
Relay Terminal or cause it to malfunction.
• Do not apply a voltage or current that exceeds the rating to any
terminal. Doing so may result in failure or burning.
Push-In Plus Terminal Blocks
• Do not wire anything to the release holes.
• Do not tilt or twist a flat-blade screwdriver while it is inserted into a
release hole on the terminal block. The terminal block may be
damaged.
• Insert a flat-blade screwdriver into the release holes at an angle.
The terminal block may be damaged if you insert the screwdriver
straight in.
• Do not allow the flat-blade screwdriver to fall out while it is inserted
into a release hole.
• Do not bend a wire past its natural bending radius or pull on it with
excessive force. Doing so may cause the wire disconnection.
• Do not insert more than one wire into each terminal insertion hole.
• To prevent wire materials from smoking or igniting, confirm wire
ratings and use the wiring materials given in the following table.
• Refer to the following table for wire sizes for external I/O devices
according to the current flow.
Application
• Select a load within the rated values. Not doing so may result in
malfunction, failure, or burning.
• The I/O Relay Terminal may occasionally rupture if short-circuit
current flows. As protection against accidents due to short-
circuiting, be sure to install protective devices, such as fuses and
no-fuse breakers, on the power supply side.
• Use a power supply within the rated frequencies. Otherwise,
malfunction, failure, or burning may occasionally occur.
• Minor electric shock may occasionally occur. Always turn OFF the
power supply before performing wiring.
• Do not drop the I/O Relay Terminal or subject it to abnormal
vibration or shock during transportation or mounting. Doing so may
result in deterioration of performance, malfunction, or failure.
• Do not transport an I/O Relay Terminal when it is not packaged.
Damage or failure may occur.
• Use a power supply with low noise.
Push-In Plus Terminal Blocks
1. Connecting Wires to the Push-In Plus Terminal Block
Part Names of the Terminal Block
Connecting Wires with Ferrules and Solid Wires
Insert the solid wire or ferrule straight into the terminal block until the
end strikes the terminal block.
• If a wire is difficult to connect because it is too thin, use a flat-blade
screwdriver in the same way as when connecting stranded wire.
