Mitsubishi's FX2N-16EX operates as a modular extension unit designed specifically to enhance the capabilities of compatible PLCs such as FX1N, FX3G, FX2N, FX3U, FX1NC, FX3GC, FX2NC, and FX3UC. The device has a compact mass of 0.3 kg, ensuring efficient use of space within control panels. Its rated voltage is conditioned through the PLC's internal power.
The unit comprises 16 input points connected via vertical terminal blocks using M3 screws, promoting straightforward installation and maintenance. Inputs using NPN or open collector transistor configurations are designed for no-voltage contact input. The signal voltage falls within ±10% of 24 V DC, making it suitable for various control applications.
Each input can handle signal currents of up to 5 mA at 24 V DC, with an impedance of 4.3 kΩ. The ON input sensitivity requires a 3.5 mA or more current to register activation. An OFF input sensitivity current should be 1.5 mA or less to ensure accurate low-state detection. The input operates with a response time of approximately 10 milliseconds, allowing for timely signal processing.
For ease of use, an LED indicator on the front panel displays the operational status of each input, providing immediate feedback during operation. The FX2N-16EX is a reliable choice for modular expansions within Mitsubishi’s FX Series, maintaining performance standards in an effective, space-saving format.
