How to obtain manuals

For the necessary product manuals or documents, consult with your local Mitsubishi Electric representative.

Applicable standards

FX5-4AD-ADP complies with the EC Directive (EMC Directive), UL standards (UL, cUL) and UKCA marking. Further information can be found in the following manual.
MELSEC iQ-F FX5S/FX5UJ/FX5U/FX5UC User’s Manual (Hardware)
Regarding the standards that relate to the CPU module, please refer to either the product catalog or consult with your nearest Mitsubishi product provide

Attention

This product is designed for use in industrial applications.

Caution for EC Directive

• Installation in Enclosure
  Programmable controllers are open-type devices that must be installed and used within conductive control cabinets. Please use the programmable controller while installed within a conductive shielded control cabinet. Installation within a controlcabinet greatly affects the safety of the system and aids in shielding noise from theprogrammable controller.

• Control cabinet

  • The control cabinet must be conductive.
  • Ground the control cabinet with the thickest possible grounding cable.
  • To ensure that there is electric contact between the control cabinet and its door, connect the cabinet and its doors with thick wires.
  • In order to suppress the leakage of radio waves, the control cabinet structure must have minimal openings. Also, wrap the cable holes with a shielding cover or other shielding devices.
  • The gap between the control cabinet and its door must be as small as possible by attaching EMI gaskets between them.
    

• These wires are used to improve the conductivity between the door and control cabinet.

• Cables

  • Make sure to use shielded cables as cables pulled out of the control cabinet.
  • Connect the shield such as shielded cables and shielding covers to the grounded control cabinet.

• It is possible that the accuracy temporarily fluctuates within ±10 %.

• Set the number of times of winding to “2 turns” within approximately 200 mm from the terminal block of the analog cable on the FX5-4AD-ADP side, and attach a ferrite core. (Ferrite core used in our test: E04SR401938 manufactured bySEIWA ELECTRIC MFG. CO., LTD.)

Compliance with UKCA marking

The requirements for compliance with UKCA marking are the same as that with EC directive (CE marking)

Outline

Installation

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

Warning

• Make sure to cut off all phases of the power supply externally before attempting installation or wiring work. Failure to do so may cause electric shock or damage to the product.
• Use the product within the generic environment specifications described in the User’s Manual (Hardware) of the CPU module used.
  Never use the product in areas with excessive dust, oily smoke, conductive dusts, corrosive gas (salt air, Cl2, H2S, SO2 or NO2), flammable gas, vibration or impacts, or expose it to high temperature, condensation, or rain and wind. If the product is used in such conditions, electric shock, fire, malfunctions, deterioration or damage may occur.

Caution

• Do not touch the conductive parts of the product directly.
  Doing so may cause device failures or malfunctions.

• When drilling screw holes or wiring, make sure that cutting and wiring debris do not enter the ventilation slits of the PLC.
  Failure to do so may cause fire, equipment failures or malfunctions.

• Install the product on a flat surface.
  If the mounting surface is rough, undue force will be applied to the PC board, thereby causing nonconformities.

• Install the product securely using a DIN rail or mounting screws.

• Connect the expansion board and expansion adapter securely to their designated connectors.
  Loose connections may cause malfunctions.

For the installation, refer to the following manual.
→ MELSEC iQ-F FX5S/FX5UJ/FX5U/FX5UC User’s Manual (Hardware)

Wiring

WIRING PRECAUTIONS

Warning

• Make sure to cut off all phases of the power supply externally before attempting installation or wiring work
  Failure to do so may cause electric shock or damage to the product.

• Make sure to properly wire to the terminal block (European type) in accordance with the following precautions.
  Failure to do so may cause electric shock, equipment failures, a short- circuit, wire breakage, malfunctions, or damage to the product.

  • The disposal size of the cable end should follow the dimensions described in the manual.
  • Tightening torque should follow the specifications in the manual.
  • Twist the ends of stranded wires and make sure that there are no loose wires.
  • Do not solder-plate the electric wire ends.
  • Do not connect more than the specified number of wires or electric wires of unspecified size.
  • Affix the electric wires so that neither the terminal block nor the connected parts are directly stressed

Caution

• When drilling screw holes or wiring, make sure that cutting and wiring debris do not enter the ventilation slits of the PLC.
  Failure to do so may cause fire, equipment failures or malfunctions.

• Make sure to observe the following precautions in order to prevent any damage to the machinery or accidents due to malfunction of the PLC caused by abnormal data written to the PLC due to the effects of noise:

  1. Do not bundle the power line or analog input/output cable together with or lay them close to the main circuit, high-voltage line, load line or power line. As a guideline, lay the power line, control line and communication cables at least 100 mm away from the main circuit, high-voltage line, load line or power line.
  2. Ground the shield of the analog input/output cable in accordance with the manuals of each model.
     However, do not use common grounding with heavy electrical systems.

Cable end treatment and tightening torque

European type terminal block

1. Suitable wiring
   No. of wire per terminal| Wire size
   ---|---
   Single wire, Strand wire| Ferrules with insulating sleeve
   One wire| AWG22 to 20 (0.3 to 0.5 mm2)| AWG22 to 20 (0.3 to 0.5 mm2)
   Two wires| AWG22 (0.3 mm2)| –

2. Tightening torque
   Tighten the terminal screws with 0.20 Nm. Do not tighten the screws outside the specified torque. Failure to do so may cause equipment failures or malfunctions.

3. Wire end treatment
   Strip the coating of strand wire and twist the cable core before connecting it, or strip the coating of single wire before connecting it. When using a wire ferrule with an insulating sleeve, choose a wire with proper cable sheath referring to the above outside dimensions, otherwise the wire cannot be inserted easily.

4. Tool
   For tightening the terminal, use a commercially available small screwdriver having a straight form that is not widened toward the end as shown right.
   
   Note:
   If the diameter of screwdriver grip is too small, tightening torque may not be achieved. To achieve the appropriate tightening torque shown in the table above, use the following screwdriver or appropriate replacement (grip diameter: approximately 25 mm). Manufacturer| Model names
   ---|---
   PHOENIX CONTACT GmbH & Co. KG| SZS 0.4×2.5

5. Terminal block fixed screw tightening torque Tighten the screws within the range of 0.2 to 0.3 Nm. Do not tighten terminal screws exceeding with a torque outside the abovementioned range.
   Failure to do so may cause equipment failures or malfunctions

Wiring of Analog Input

→  For the terminal configuration, refer to Section 1.2

V +, I+, COM CH represents the channel number.

1. Use 2-core shielded twisted pair cable for the analog input lines, and separate the analog input lines from other power lines or inductive lines.
2. Make sure to short-circuit the ‘V+’ and ‘I+’ terminals when current is input. (: input channel number)

Grounding

Grounding should be performed as stated below.

• The grounding resistance should be 100  or less.

• Independent grounding should be performed for best results.
  When independent grounding is not performed, perform “shared grounding” of the following figure.
  For the details, refer to the following manual
  → MELSEC iQ-F FX5S/FX5UJ/FX5U/FX5UC User’s Manual (Hardware)
  

• The grounding wire size should be AWG 22 to 20 (0.3 to 0.5 mm2).

• Bring the grounding point close to the PLC as much as possible so that the ground cable can be shortened
