Safety Instructions for design process

Warning

 Please install a protection circuit on the exterior of PLC so that the whole system may

operate safely regardless of failures from external power or PLC. Any abnormal output or

operation from PLC may cause serious problems to safety in whole system.

- Install protection units on the exterior of PLC like an interlock circuit that deals with opposite

operations such as emergency stop, protection circuit, and forward/reverse rotation or install an

interlock circuit that deals with high/low limit under its position controls.

- If any system error (watch-dog timer error, module installation error, etc.) is detected during

CPU operation in PLC, all output signals are designed to be turned off and stopped for safety.

However, there are cases when output signals remain active due to device failures in Relay and

TR which can’t be detected. Thus, you are recommended to install an addition circuit to monitor

the output status for those critical outputs which may cause significant problems.

 Never overload more than rated current of output module nor allow to have a short circuit.

Over current for a long period time maycause a fire .

 Never let the external power of the output circuit to be on earlier than PLC power, which may

cause accidents from abnormal output oroperation.

 Please install interlock circuits in the sequence program for safe operations in the system

when exchange data with PLC or modify operation modes using a computer or other

external equipments Read specific instructions thoroughly when conducting control operations

with PLC.

cable or power line. Fail to follow this

Safety Instructions on installation process

Caution
 Use PLC only in the environment specified in PLC manual or general standard of data

sheet. If not, electric shock, fire, abnormal operation of the product may be caused.

 Before install or remove the module, be sure PLC power is off. If not, electric shock or damage

on the product may be caused.

 Be sure that every module is securely attached after adding a module or an extension

connector. If the product is installed loosely or incorrectly, abnormal operation, error or dropping

may be caused. In addition, contact failures under poor cable installation will be causing

malfunctions as well.

 Be sure that screws get tighten securely under vibrating environments. Fail to do so will put

the product under direct vibrations which will cause electric shock, fire and abnormal operation.

 Do not come in contact with conducting parts in each module, which may cause electric

shock, malfunctions or abnormal operation.

Safety Instructions for wiring process

Warning
 Prior to wiring works, make sure that every power is turned off. If not, electric shock or

damage on the product may be caused.

 After wiring process is done, make sure that terminal covers are installed properly before

its use. Fail to install the cover may cause electric shocks.

Caution
 Check rated voltages and terminal arrangements in each product prior to its wiring

process. Applying incorrect voltages other than rated voltages and misarrangement among

terminals may cause fire or malfunctions.

 Secure terminal screws tightly applying with specified torque. If the screws get loose, short

circuit, fire or abnormal operation may be caused. Securing screws too tightly will cause

damages to the module or malfunctions, short circuit, and dropping.

 Be sure to earth to the ground using Class 3 wires for FG terminals which is exclusively

used for PLC. If the terminals not grounded correctly, abnormal operation or electric shock

may be caused.

 Don’t let any foreign materials such as wiring waste inside the module while wiring,

which may cause fire, damage on the product or abnormal operation.

 Make sure that pressed terminals get tighten following the specified torque. External

connector type shall be pressed or soldered using proper equipments.

 Safety Instruction

Safety Instructions for test-operation and maintenance

Warning
 Don’t touch the terminal when powered. Electric shock or abnormal operation may occur.

 Prior to cleaning or tightening the terminal screws, let all the external power off including

PLC power. If not, electric shock or abnormal operation may occur.

 Don’t let the battery recharged, disassembled, heated, short or soldered. Heat, explosion

or ignition may cause injuries or fire.

Caution

 Do not make modifications or disassemble each module. Fire, electric shock or abnormal

operation may occur.

 Prior to installing or disassembling the module, let all the external power off including

PLC power. If not, electric shock or abnormal operation may occur.

 Keep any wireless equipment such as walkie-talkie or cell phones at least 30cm away

from PLC. If not, abnormal operation may be caused.

 When making a modification on programs or using run to modify functions under PLC

operations, read and comprehend all contents in the manual fully. Mismanagement will

cause damages to products and accidents.

 Avoid any physical impact to the battery and prevent it from dropping as well. Damages

to battery may cause leakage from its fluid. When battery was dropped or exposed under strong

impact, never reuse the battery again. Moreover skilled workers are needed when exchanging

batteries.
