INSTRUCTION MANUAL
BEFORE USE ....
Thank you for choosing M-System. Before use, please check
contents of the package you received as outlined below.
If you have any problems or questions with the product,
please contact M-System’s Sales Office or representatives.
PACKAGE INCLUDES:
Signal conditioner ......................................................... (1)
MODEL NO.
Confirm Model No. marking on the product to be exactly
what you ordered.
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
This manual describes necessary points of caution when
you use this product, including installation, connection and
basic maintenance procedures.
POINTS OF CAUTION
CONFORMITY WITH EC DIRECTIVES
This equipment is suitable for use in Pollution Degree
2 environment and in Installation Category II, with the
maximum operating voltage 550V for input to output or
power, and 300V for output to power.
Prior to
installation, check that the insulation class of this
unit satisfies the system requirements.
Altitude up to 2000 meters
The equipment must be mounted inside a panel.
Insert noise filters for the power source, input and output
connected to the unit. COSEL Model NAC-04-472, TDK
Model ZCAT 3035-1330 or equivalent is recommended.
The
equipment must be installed such that appropriate
clearance and creepage distances are maintained to con-
form to CE requirements. Failure to observe these re-
quirements may invalidate the CE conformance.
POWER INPUT RATING & OPERATIONAL RANGE
Locate
the power input rating marked on the product and
confirm its operational range as indicated below:
100 – 120V AC rating: 85 – 132V, 47 – 66 Hz, approx. 2VA
200 – 240V AC rating: 170 – 264V, 47 – 66 Hz, approx. 2VA
24V, 48V DC rating: Rating ±10%, approx. 1.7W
110V DC rating: 85 – 150V, approx. 1.7W
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Before
you remove or mount the unit, turn off the power
supply and input signal for safety.
ENVIRONMENT
Indoor use
When heavy dust or metal particles are present in the air,
install the unit inside proper housing with sufficient ven-
tilation.
Do
not install the unit where it is subjected to continuous
vibration. Do not subject the unit to physical impact.
Environmental
temperature must be within -10 to +55°C
(14 to 131°F) with relative humidity within 30 to 85% RH
in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.
WIRING
Do not install cables (power supply, input and output)
close to noise sources (relay drive cable, high frequency
line, etc.).
Do
not bind these cables together with those in which
noises are present. Do not install them in the same duct.
AND ....
The
unit is designed to function as soon as power is sup-
plied, however, a warm up for 10 minutes is required for
satisfying complete performance described in the data
sheet.
COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION
INSTALLATION
DIN RAIL MOUNTING
Set the unit so that its DIN rail adaptor is at the bottom.
Position the upper hook at the rear side of the unit on the
DIN rail and push in the lower. When removing the unit,
push down the DIN rail adaptor utilizing a minus screw-
driver and pull.

TERMINAL CONNECTIONS
Connect the unit as in the diagram below or refer to the con-
nection diagram on the side of the unit.
CHECKING
1) Terminal wiring: Check that all cables are correctly con-
nected according to the connection diagram.
2) Power
input voltage: Check voltage across the terminal
6 – 7 with a multimeter.
3) Input: Chec
k that the input signal is within 0 – 100% of
full-scale.
4) Output:
Check that the load resistance meets the de-
scribed specifications.
ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
This unit is calibrated at the factory to meet the ordered
specifications, therefore you usually do not need any cali-
bration.
For matching the signal to a receiving instrument or in case
of regular calibration, adjust the output as explained in the
following.
HOW TO CALIBRATE THE OUTPUT SIGNAL
Use a signal source and measuring instruments of sufficient
accuracy level. Turn the power supply on and warm up for
more than 10 minutes.
1)
ZERO:
Apply 0% input and adjust output to 0%.
2) SPAN: Apply 100% input and adjust output to 100%.
3) Check ZERO adjustment again with 0% input.
4) When ZERO value is changed, repeat the above proce-
dure 1) – 3).
MAINTENANCE
Regular calibration procedure is explained below:
CALIBRATION
Warm up the unit for at least 10 minutes. Apply 0%, 25%,
50%, 75% and 100% input signal. Check that the output
signal for the respective input signal remains within accu-
racy described in the data sheet. When the output is out of
tolerance, recalibrate the unit according to the ADJUST-
MENT PROCEDURE” explained earlier.
