Specification

SEODescription

The Mitsubishi FX5-C16EX/D is a 16-point digital input module designed for the Melsec FX5 PLC series, offering reliable integration into automation systems. This module provides 16 discrete DC input channels (24V), supporting both sink and source wiring configurations, with a fast response time of 1ms. It connects directly to the FX5 PLC base unit, allowing seamless expansion alongside other I/O or special function modules. While the module itself lacks built-in communication ports, it leverages the FX5's high-speed Ethernet and RS-485 interfaces for system-wide connectivity. Operating within a 20.4–28.8V DC range and a temperature span of 0–55°C, it suits harsh industrial environments like manufacturing, packaging, and assembly lines. Key advantages include compact design, DIN-rail mounting, and compliance with IEC standards, though its fixed I/O configuration limits flexibility compared to modular alternatives. The FX5-C16EX/D excels in applications requiring robust digital signal acquisition with minimal space requirements.
