Mitsubishi Electric FX3U-16MT/ES-A Programmable Logic Controller Module

The Mitsubishi Electric FX3U-16MT/ES-A Programmable Logic Controller Module is a 16-point MELSEC FX3U PLC designed for compact machine automation and high-speed transistor-output control. It provides eight 24V DC digital inputs and eight transistor (sink) outputs, powered by 100–240 VAC, with built-in RS-422 communication and high-speed pulse output for positioning control alongside built-in high-speed inputs. This FX3U-16MT/ES-A supports up to 64K program steps and offers DIN rail or panel mounting, operating from 0°C to 55°C, making it suitable for packaging machines, conveyors, labeling, pick-and-place, and other motion-related automation in factory panels. Common replacements include FX3U-16MR/ES-A and FX3G-14MT/ES-A, and it is commonly used for replacement, retrofit, or expansion in automation systems requiring 16 I/O with transistor outputs.
