LH2H Hour Meters (Discontinued Products)

Rating/ Performance

Panel Mounting Type

Note)Only for installation frame type.

PC Board Mounting Type

Common

Explanation of Operation

1.Time measuring takes place when the start input is ON.

2.When the elapsed (measured) time reaches full scale it returns to "0", and then measuring starts again from "0".

3.When reset input is ON, the display becomes "0". You cannot measure during reset input.

For PC board mounting type the display disappears while the reset input is ON; however, the display reads "0" when the reset input turns OFF.

4.Press the front reset button if you want to perform a manual reset (for panel installation type)

Note) When installing to a 4.5mm/ .177inch thick panel, remove the rubber spacer first.

When installing the one-touch installation type model, make sure that the installation spring does not pinch the rubber gasket.

To prevent the installation spring from pinching the rubber gasket:

1.Set the rubber gasket on both ends of the installation spring(left and right).
2.Confirm that the installation spring is not pinching the rubber gasket, and then insert and fix the installation spring in place from the rear of the timer unit.

LH2H Hour Meter Cautions for Use

Non-voltage input type

For both panel mounting and PC board mounting types

1.Never apply voltage to the non-voltage input type.
This will damage the internalelements.

2.Since the current flow is very small from the start input and reset input terminals ((1) and (3) on the panel mounting type and (15) to (17) and (26) to (26) on the PC board mounting type) please use relays and switches with high contact reliability. When inputting with an open collector of a transistor, use a transistor for small signals in which ICBO is 1 μA or less and always input with no voltage

3.When wiring, try to keep all the input lines to the start and reset inputs as short as possible and avoid running them together with high voltage and power transmission lines or in a power conduit. Also, malfunctions might occur if the floating capacitance of these wires exceeds 500 pF (10 m 32.808 ft. for parallel wires of 2 mm²). In particular, when using shielded wiring, be careful of the capacitance between wires.

PC board mounting type

1.For external power supply use manganese dioxide or lithium batteries(CR type: 3V).

2.Always reset after external power is applied and confirm that the display reads "0".

3.Make the wiring from the battery to the hour meter unit as short as absolutely possible. Also, be careful of polarity.

4.Calculate battery life with the following formula.

  t = A / I

  t:battery life [h]

 I:LH2H current consumption [mA]

 A:battery capacity until minimum operation voltage is reached [mAh]

5.Hand solder to the lead terminal. Do not dip solder. With the tip of the soldering iron at 300℃ 572℉ perform soldering within 3 seconds (for 30 to 60 W soldering iron).

Voltage input type

1.Be aware that applying more than 30 V DC to start input terminals (1) and (2), and reset input terminals (3) and (4) will cause damage to the internal elements.

2.For external resetting use H level (application of 4.5 to 30 V DC) between reset terminals (3) and (4) of the rear terminals. In this case, connect + to terminal (3) and -- to terminal (4). This is the valid polarity; therefore, the hour meter will not work if reversed.

3.When wiring, try to keep all the input lines to the start and reset inputs as short as possible and avoid running them together with high voltage and power transmission lines or in a power conduit. Also, malfunctions might occur if the floating capacitance of these wires exceeds 500 pF (10 m/ 32.808 ft. for parallel wires of 2 mm²).

Free voltage input type

1.Use start input terminals (1) and (2) for free voltage input and reset input terminals (3) and (4) for non-voltage input.

2.Be aware that the application of voltage that exceeds the voltage range of the H level to the start input terminal, and the application of voltage to the reset input terminal, can cause damage to the internal elements.

3.Since the current flow is very small from reset input terminal (3), please use relays and switches with high contact reliability.

4.When inputting a reset with an open collector of a transistor, use a transistor for small signals in which ICBO is 1 μA or less and always input with no voltage.

5.To reset externally, short reset input terminals (3) and (4) on the rear.

6.Input uses a high impedance circuit; therefore, erroneous operation may occur if the influence of induction voltage is present. If you plan to use wiring for the input signal that is 10 m 32.808 ft. or longer (wire capacitance 120 pF/m at normal temperature), we recommend the use of a CR filter or the connection of a bleeder resistor.

How to reset multiple panel mounting type counters all at once (input is the same for count)

Notes)

1.Use the following as a guide for choosing transistors used for input (Tr). Leakage current < 1 μA

2.Use as small a diode (D) as possible in the forward voltage so that the voltage between terminals 3 and 4 during reset input meets the standard value (0.5 V).
(At IF = 20 μA, forward voltage 0.1 and higher.)

Note)Make sure that H (reset ON) level is at least 4.5V

Backlight luminance

To prevent varying luminance among backlights when using multiple Backlight types, please use the same backlight power supply.

Waterproof construction

LH2H hour meter (installation frame type)

The operation part of the panel installation type (installation frame type) is constructed to prevent water from entering the unit and a rubber gasket is provided to prevent water from entering the gap between the unit and the panel cutout.
There must be sufficient pressure applied to the rubber gasket to prevent water from entering.
Be sure to use the mounting screws when installing the mounting frame (ATH3803).

Note:The one-touch installation type is not waterproof

LH2H preset hour meter

• 1.When using the waterproof type (IP66: panel front only), install the hour meter to the front plate with mounting frame ATH3803 (sold separately) and rubber gasket ATH3804 (sold separately).
  Be sure to tighten using mounting screws.

*When installing the mounting frame and rubber gasket please remove the pre-attached o-ring.

• 2.Panel installation order

• 1.Remove o-ring.
• 2.Place rubber gasket.
• 3.Insert hour meter into panel.
