Precautions for Safe Use
Be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent malfunction
or adverse affects on the performance or functionality of the product.
Not doing so may occasionally result in faulty operation.
1. This product is specifically designed for indoor use only.
2. Use and store the product within the rated ambient temperature
3. To allow heat to escape, do not block the area around the
4. Be sure to wire properly with correct polarity of terminals.
5. Use the specified size (M3.5, width 7.2 mm or less) crimped
6. Do not wire the terminals that are not used.
7. To avoid inductive noise, keep the wiring for the product’s
8. Use this product within the rated load and power supply.
9. Make sure that the rated voltage is attained within two seconds
10. Make sure that the Temperature Controller has 30 minutes or
11. When executing self-tuning, turn ON power to the load (e.g.,
12. A switch or circuit breaker must be provided close to the product.
13. Always turn OFF the power supply before pulling out the interior
14. Do not use paint thinner or similar chemical to clean with. Use
• Places directly subject to heat radiated from heating equipment.
• Places subject to splashing liquid or oil atmosphere.
• Places subject to direct sunlight.
• Places subject to dust or corrosive gas (in particular, sulfide gas
• Places subject to intense temperature change.
• Places subject to icing and condensation.
• Places subject to vibration and large shocks.
Do not use this product in the following places:
and humidity.
Gang-mounting two or more Temperature Controllers, or
mounting Temperature Controllers above each other may cause
heat to build up inside the Temperature Controllers, which will
shorten their service life. In such a case, use forced cooling by
fans or other means of air ventilation to cool down the
Temperature Controllers.

terminals for wiring. To connect bare wires to the terminal block,
use stranded or solid copper wires with a gage of AWG24 to
AWG14 (equal to a cross-sectional area of 0.205 to 2.081 mm
(The stripping length is 5 to 6 mm.) Up to two wires or two crimp
terminals can be inserted into a single terminal.
terminal block away from power cables carry high voltages or
large currents. Also, do not wire power lines together with or
parallel to product wiring. Using shielded cables and using
separate conduits or ducts is recommended.
Attach a surge suppressor or noise filter to peripheral devices
that generate noise (in particular, motors, transformers,
solenoids, magnetic coils, or other equipment that have an
inductance component).
When a noise filter is used at the power supply, first check the
voltage or current, and attach the noise filter as close as possible
to the product.
Allow as much space as possible between the product and
devices that generate powerful high frequencies (high-frequency
welders, high-frequency sewing machines, etc.) or surge.

product. If power is turned ON to the product before turning ON
power to the load, self-tuning will not be performed properly and
optimum control will not be achieved.

Waterproofing
The degree of protection is as shown below. Sections without any
specification on their degree of protection or those with IP@0 are not
waterproof.
Operating Precautions
1. It takes approximately two seconds for the outputs to turn ON
2. When using self-tuning, turn ON power for the load (e.g., heater)
3. When starting operation after the Temperature Controller has
ranges:
Temperature: –10 to 55 C (with no icing or condensation)
Humidity: 25% to 85%
If the product is installed inside a control board, the ambient
temperature must be kept to under 55 C, including the
temperature around the product.
is determined not only by the number of times the relay is
switched but also by the service life of internal electronic
components. Component service life is affected by the ambient
temperature: the higher the temperature, the shorter the service
life and, the lower the temperature, the longer the service life.
Therefore, the service life can be extended by lowering the
temperature of the Temperature Controller.
horizontally close to each other or vertically next to one another,
the internal temperature will increase due to heat radiated by the
Temperature Controllers and the service life will decrease. In such
a case, use forced cooling by fans or other means of air
ventilation to cool down the Temperature Controllers. When
providing forced cooling, however, be careful not to cool down the
terminals sections alone to avoid measurement errors.
sure to use compensating wires that match the thermocouple
types.

at the same time as or before supplying power to the Temperature
Controller. If power is turned ON for the Temperature Controller
before turning ON power for the load, self-tuning will not be
performed properly and optimum control will not be achieved.

same time as turning ON power for the load. (Instead of turning
the Temperature Controller OFF and ON again, switching from
STOP mode to RUN mode can also be used.)
