General precautions
• Verify that this device is operating normally in terms of functionality and performance before
the start of work and when operating the device.
• Provide a safety circuit that does not pass via the programmable controller to enable failsafe
operation of the entire system in the event that the programmable controller fails.
• Output circuit or internal circuit malfunctions sometimes prevent control from being
performed normally. Be sure to provide a safety circuit in control systems where circuit
malfunction may lead to fire or other serious accidents.
• Proceed with care when modifying the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series, or when using it
in a manner that falls outside of the ranges indicated in its specifications, since KEYENCE is
unable to guarantee device functionality or performance in such situations.
• Use this product in combination with other devices only after careful consideration, since the
KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series may fail to satisfy its functionality and performance
capabilities as a result of the conditions and environment in which it is used.
• Do not use the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series for the purpose to protect a human
body or a part of human body.
• The KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series is not intended for use as explosion-proof product.
Do not use this product in hazardous location and/or potentially explosive atmosphere.

Keyence Corporation has confirmed that this product complies with the essential requirements of
the applicable EC Directives, based on the following specifications.
Be sure to consider the following specifications when using this product in the Member States of
European Union.
EMC Directive (2004/108/EC)
• Applicable standard EMI: EN61131-2, Class A EMS: EN61131-2
• When installing the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series, it must be installed in an conductive
enclosure (industrial control panel) with IP54 or higher.
• When using a Keyence KV-U7 as the power supply for the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700
Series, pass the power cable through the ferrite core twice.
• When using a Keyence KV-U7 as the power supply for the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series,
be sure to connect the protective earthing terminal located on the power supply input terminal to
the protective earthing conductor in the building installation.
• When using the DC power input terminal of the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series, pass
the power cable through the ferrite core twice.
• Use a shielded cable for wiring to the special units. The shielded cable must be grounded.
• Use a shielded cable for the signal lines located outside of the conductive enclosure
(industrial control panel). The shielded cable must be grounded.
• Be sure to use the functional earthing terminal on the unit for grounding, if applicable.
For more information, see the KV-5500/5000/3000 Series User's Manual
Remarks:
These specifications do not give any guarantee that the end-product with this product incorporated
complies with the essential requirements of EMC Directive. The manufacturer of the end-product is
solely responsible for the compliance on the end-product itself according to EMC Directive.
Low-voltage Directive (2006/95/EC)
The Low-voltage Directive is applied to KV-U7, KV-B8RC, KV-B16RA and KV-B16RC. It is not
applicable to any other models.
• Applicable standard EN61131-2 (KV-B8RC/KV-B16RA/KV-B16RC)
EN60950-1 (KV-U7)
• Overvoltage Category
• Pollution degree 2
• When using a Keyence KV-U7 as the power supply of the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series,
be sure to connect the protective earthing terminal located on the power supply input terminal to
the protective earthing conductor in the building installation because the KV-U7 is designed as a
Class I equipment.
• When installing the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series, it must be installed in an enclosure
(industrial control panel) with IP54 or higher.
• The rated relay load of the KV-B16RA and KV-B16RC is 8A per common. In other words, when
all eight channels are used, the maximum load per channel is 1A, and when four channels are
used, the maximum load per channel is 2A.
• The KV-B8RC is an independent contact and the rated relay load is 2A per channel.
UL Certificate
The KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 is an UL/C-UL Listed Product.
• UL File No. E207185
• Category NRAQ, NRAQ7
Be sure to consider the following specifications when using this product as an UL/C-UL Listed
product.
• When installing the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series, it must be installed in an enclosure
(Industrial control panel) with IP 54 or higher.
• Supply power to the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700 Series using either the exclusive Keyence
KV-U7 power supply, or a power supply that provides Class 2 output defined in NFPA 70 (NEC:
National Electrical Code).
• When using a Keyence KV-U7 as the power supply of the KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700
Series, be sure to connect the protective earthing terminal located on the input terminal to
the protective earthing conductor in the building installation wiring as the KV-U7 is designed
as a Class I equipment.
• For wiring to the terminal block on the special units except for the KV-DN20, use stranded
copper wire having a gage of AWG#16 to #22 and temperature rating of 60°C or higher. The
tightening torque is 0.56 N·m (4.94 lb-in).
• For wiring to the functional grounding terminal on the KV-DN20, use stranded copper wire
having a gage of AWG#12 to #22 and temperature rating of 60°C or higher. The tightening
torque is 1.8N·m.
• For wiring to the DeviceNet connector on the KV-DN20, use stranded copper wire having a
gage of AWG#12 to #30 and temperature rating of 60°C or higher. The tightening torque is
0.6N·m.
• Special units are for use with KV-5500/5000/3000/1000/700.
Inspection and Daily Care
Inspection
When the unit is used for a long time, connector connections may become loose or the battery
may wear down. Continued use in this state may lead to malfunction.
For this reason, periodically inspect the body and wired sections on the unit.
The main inspection items are as follows:
• Are the connections on each unit disconnected or loose?
• Are the connector connections disconnected or loose?
• Are the screws on the terminal block loose?
• Is the lithium battery worn?
• Are the wiring cables between units and other devices damaged?
Daily Care
The unit becomes dirty over prolonged use.
Wipe off any dirt on the units with a clean, dry cloth.
Remove any dust or dirt on connectors and other small parts with a cotton wool bud after once
disconnecting the connector.

Precautions when wiring units Connector assembly and wire connections

Precautions when wiring input/output devices Precautions when connecting wires
Pay attention to the following when wiring input/output devices. (OP-22184, OP-22185, OP-51404, OP-23139, OP-42224)
• Separate the input and output lines when wiring. Pay attention to the following when connecting wires.
• Positioning input/output signal lines close to power lines may result in abnormal device • Always use wires compatible with the following:
operation due to the influence of high-voltage and large currents. Separate input/output Wire size: AWG24 to 22 (stranded wire)
signal lines and power lines by at least 100 mm. Cross-sectional area: 0.2 to 0.3 mm2
• Separate DC 24 V input/output lines from AC 100 V and AC 200 V lines. Insulation outside diameter: 1.5 to 1.1
• When using a duct to hold wires, verify that the duct is properly grounded.
• Cut the tips of wires straight across so that they are flat.
• Once connections have been made, verify that clamps completely surround wires and that

Precautions when grounding devices
• Establish individual ground connections (D-type ground connections) for each device. The
ground resistance for each connection should be 100 Ω or less. Connecting wires to connectors
• When individual ground connections cannot be established, use a common ground. In this This section describes the process used to connect wires using the special pressure connection
