Fluid quality In the case of water The use of a fluid which contains foreign matter can cause problems such as malfunction and seal failure by promoting wear of the valve seat and armature, and by sticking to the sliding parts of the armature, etc. Install a suitable filter (strainer) immediately upstream from the valve. In general, a mesh of about 50 to 0 is a guideline for the filter. When using ordinary tap water, scaling and sludge from substances in hard water such as calcium and magnesium can cause solenoid valves to malfunction. It is therefore necessary to install a water softener to remove such substances and a filter (strainer) immediately before the solenoid valve. In the case of air Please use ordinary compressed air where a filter of µm or less is provided on the inlet side piping. (Except dry air). Leakage voltage When the solenoid valve is operated using the controller, etc., the leakage voltage should be the product allowable leakage voltage or less. Particularly when using a resistor in parallel with a switching element and using a -R element (surge voltage suppressor) to protect the switching element, take note that leakage current will flow through the resistor, -R element, etc., creating a possible danger that the valve may not turn off. ) Take steps to ensure that there are no problems such as abnormal voltage drops or insufficient capacity associated with the signal power supply used to drive the solenoid valve. 2) Make sure the leakage current flowing through the solenoid valve when power is not being supplied is 0. m or less. If there the leakage current is larger than this, take appropriate measures such as connecting a bleeder resister (models with power-saving circuit). 3) n attenuation function is provided to reduce voltage surges produced by the solenoid valve. However, the controller should be equipped with protection against voltage surges as some residual surge voltage may still reach external components. coil 2% or less of rated voltage 2. Low temperature operation ) The valves can be used up to an ambient temperature of, however take measures to prevent solidification of impurities or freezing, etc. 2) When using valves for water application in cold climates, first stop the water supply/discharge of the pump, etc., and then take measures to prevent freezing such as draining water in pipe. When heating by steam, be careful not to expose the coil portion to steam. lso, please take measures to prevent freezing such as heating the body. 502 Power supply Switching element OFF R Leakage current SOL. Leakage voltage Mounting. When the valve is secured using an insert nut (part number suffix -N ), handle with care during installation because the application of excessive stress to the body could damage it (appropriate tightening torque: 0.8 to N m).. uring use, deterioration of the tubing or damage to the fittings could cause tubes to come loose from their fittings and thrash about. To prevent uncontrolled tube movement, install protective covers or fasten tubes securely in place.. onnection of piping to products When connecting piping to a product, refer to its operation manual to avoid mistakes regarding the supply port, etc. o not apply external force to the coil when holding it to connect piping, as the tube may deform. When attaching fittings to a solenoid valve, do not use fittings that do not conform to the quick fastener standard. Handle with care when attaching fittings because the application of excessive stress to the quick fastener portion could damage the body. Tube size ø4 ø6 ø8 ø Piping Recommended Piping onditions.

Incorrect voltage could cause shorting of the power-saving circuit, coil burnout, or valve malfunction. 3. o not apply a tension load of N or more to the solenoid valve lead wires. 4. pply voltage which is within ±% of the rated voltage. lso, do not use excessive power supply voltage or superimpose electrical noise such as ripple voltage on the power supply voltage as these could harm the valve. 5. When connecting an induction load such as a circuit protector to the solenoid valve connection, take measures to ensure that the current to the solenoid valve is not reduced too much. Maintenance. o not disassemble solenoid valves. isassembling a solenoid valve will void its warranty. 2. Low frequency operation Switch valves at least once every days to prevent malfunction. lso, in order to use it under the optimum state, conduct a regular inspection once a half year.. Store indoors in a location away from direct sunlight and where the following conditions are maintained. Temperature: to 50 Relative humidity: 20% to 85%RH (No condensation) Liquid rings may not be used. 2. Storage When not using for a long time (more than approx. one month) after use with liquid, thoroughly remove all moisture to prevent rust and deterioration of rubber materials, etc. Fluid Flow irection The maximum operating pressure differential differs depending on the flow direction of the fluid. If the pressure differential at each port exceeds the values in the table below, valve leakage may occur. 2 Port Valve Model Max. operating pressure differential (MPa) Pressure port 0.6 0. 0.
