◆How to Conduct Wiring
  1. Peal the sheath for 7mm and twist the core wires lightly.

  2. Insert a precision screwdriver fully into the tool insertion slot.
    Press the spring within the connector down.

  3. Insert the core wire.

  4. Pull out the precision screwdriver.
    Confirm that the cable is not pulled out.

Caution

  • Take care not to twist the core wire too far. This will reduce the retention force, causing the wire to fall out of the connector and possibly causing insufficient current or short circuit.
  • Do not insert the precision screwdriver violently into the connector, or twist it hard.
    This may damage the connector housing and internal spring.
  • If an electric wire thinner than the applicable diameter or wiring longer than 10m is used, insufficient current may trigger an alarm and the performance of the ELECYLINDER may be degraded.
24V DC Power Supply Wiring
Wiring for Power Supply Standard Type
Connect the power wiring to the power & I/O connector.
Connect the 1. and 2. wiring to the connector terminal block while referring to the connection diagram.
  1. Connect the "B1" connector terminal and the +24V terminal of the 24V DC power supply.
  2. Connect the "A1" connector terminal and the 0V terminal of the 24V DC power supply.

Reference

  • When establishing an external stop switch, add a b-contact switch to the "B1" terminal wiring. This shuts off the 24V power supply in the stopped state (drive power OFF).
    Refer to Connection Diagram [Example for Wiring ELECYLINDER and Motor Drive DC Power Supply] for details.
PLC Wiring
For I/O between the PLC and signals, the signal wiring must be connected to the connector terminal block.
Connect the 1. to 6. wiring to the connector terminal block while referring to the connection diagram.
  1. Connect the "B3" connector terminal and the "Backward" ("Forward/Backward" for single solenoid type) output terminal.
  2. Connect the "B4" connector terminal and the "Forward" output terminal.
    (Note) There is no need of connecting "B4" terminal for the single solenoid type.
  3. Connect the "B5" connector terminal and the "Alarm clear" output terminal.
  4. Connect the "A3" connector terminal and the "Backward complete" input terminal.
  5. Connect the "A4" connector terminal and the "Forward complete" input terminal.
  6. Connect the "A5" connector terminal and the "Alarm" input terminal.
