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
■ GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
• Before you remove or mount the unit, turn off the 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 (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 the input sig-
nal is supplied, however, a warm up for 10 minutes is re-
quired 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.
■ WALL MOUNTING
Refer to “EXTERNAL DIMENSIONS.”

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) Input:
Check that the input signal is within 10 – 120% of
the full-scale. Be sure to short the secondary side of CT
or turn off the current at its primary side to prevent the
CT from burning when the cables are to be disconnected
from input terminals.
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. SPAN is adjustable within ±5%. Apply 100%
input and adjust output to 100%.
MAINTENANCE
Regular calibration procedure is explained below:
■ CALIBRATION
Warm up the unit for at least 10 minutes. Apply 10%, 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.
