Link digital sensors directly to open networks
To minimize life cycle cost
The continuously shortened life cycle of equipment has highlighted the importance of reduced costs during
manufacturing and initial installation. Panasonic Industrial Devices SUNX offers a line of devices, the SC-GU3
series communication units for open network, that maximize the capabilities of open networks, streamline regular
maintenance and preventive maintenance, and reduce wiring and installation work. We offer solutions that minimize
costs during the life cycle of equipment.
Traceability
It is useful to keep track of the sensor configurations at equipment start-up so that failures can be quickly
identified and the user alerted.

It is hard to identify “what went wrong”. Checking on the
settings of each sensor one by one requires a great number
of man-hours.
It is easy to identify “what went wrong”. By having the
information of each sensor saved as “Configuration file”,
the traceability of the workload is reduced and incorrect
input or setting loss is prevented.

Easy maintenance with the memory function
Store Settings of the connected digital sensors into the SC-GU3 series. Just press the “Setting extension (EXT.)” key
and setting data can be transmitted and restored to original status. Maintenance such as sensor replacement can
be performed smoothly. Also, the settings stored in the SC-GU3 series is checked against the settings of the digital
sensors when the power is turned on. When the setting is different, memory function indicator (MEM.) will flash, and
warning signal sent, preventing the equipment from operating with settings changed.

This extension unit can be connected to eight NPN output type devices. Includes a
power indicator. Does not include an input signal indicator.
When the SC-GU3-0□, sensor amplifiers, analog input units, the SC-GU3-EU,
extension units, and other devices are connected on DIN rail, these end plates clamp
amplifiers into place on both sides. Make sure to use end plates when cascading
multiple amplifiers together.
Note: Conditions of connectable DC 2-wire type input device
• Leak current: 1 mA or less (when the power is OFF), Offset voltage: 3 V or less (when the power is ON)
• Product whose load current range includes 5 to 8 mA
