②Maintain the measuring pressure within the pressure range as stated in specifications. Pressures exceeding the maximum pressure rating may cause product failure.

③Do not press the diaphragm with a hard object. It may cause abnormal output or malfunction.

④Use a stable DC power supply. When using a switching power supply, please do so with the frame ground terminal installed. For inductive loads such as relays and solenoids, put

voltage surge protectors (diodes, varisters, etc.) in the circuit.

⑤Cable wiring should be conducted in the state of power OFF. Shorting the output terminal and power terminal will damage the internal circuit. Please be careful not to wire

incorrectly.

⑥When using the supplied M12 connector cable, tighten fitting by hand（Tightening torque：0.6［N・m］）after fully inserting the connector. If the tightening and inserting is inadequate,

the product may fail to meet the specified IP. In addition, the use of pliers may cause damage to the fitting.

⑦In the insertion and removal of the connector, please check the direction of key slot and do so with the product and connector grabbed tightly. Inadequate insertion and/or removal of
