Category: ELECTRICAL CONTROL

Specifications
Details



Model :
 
  • FX2N-8EYT-ESS/UL
 

The Mitsubishi FX2N-8EYT-ESS/UL is an 8-point transistor (Source/PNP) digital output expansion module designed for the MELSEC-F PLC family. It increases the output capacity of compatible PLCs, allowing reliable control of relays, solenoid valves, indicator lamps, and other DC loads. Its compact construction, fast transistor outputs, photocoupler isolation, and industrial certifications make it suitable for a wide range of factory automation and machine control applications.
 

Features :

  • 8-point digital transistor output expansion block for Mitsubishi MELSEC-F PLCs.
  • Source (PNP) transistor outputs for high-speed DC switching applications.
  • Expands PLC output capacity without replacing the main PLC unit.
  • Compatible with FX1N, FX2N, FX3G, FX3U, FX1NC, FX2NC, FX3GC, and FX3UC PLC series (some models require an interface adapter).
  • Powered directly from the PLC or extension unit; no separate power supply is required.
  • Built-in LED indicators for individual output status monitoring.
  • Photocoupler isolation improves electrical noise immunity and protects output circuits.
  • Compact design for DIN rail or panel mounting.
  • Screw terminal connections for secure industrial wiring.
  • Reliable performance for industrial automation and machine control.
  • Certified to UL, cUL, CE (EMC), and other industrial standards.
