Designed for use with FX5U, FX5UC, and FX5UJ CPUs, it provides eight independent input channels with sink\/source (NPN\/PNP) compatibility, 24 V DC input signals, and photocoupler isolation, accepting No-voltage contact or transistor signals with a rated voltage tolerance of +20%\/−15% and an input impedance of about 5.6 kΩ, drawing roughly 4.0 mA per point. Power is supplied from the PLC’s 5 V rail or an external 24 V source, with typical current consumption around 75 mA at 5 V or 50 mA at 24 V, and the module features fast response times (ON ≤ 50 µs, OFF ≤ 150 µs) for reliable input monitoring. Connections use screw terminals (M3); the unit occupies eight I\/O points and can be mounted on DIN rail or panel, with dimensions approximately 40 × 90 × 83 mm and a weight of about 0.16–0.2 kg. Applications include conveyors, packaging lines, assembly systems, and material handling where reliable monitoring of multiple sensors, limit switches, and other field devices is required through the PLC.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mitsubishi","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46263029694698,"sku":"New","price":202.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8039\/3450\/files\/GTG-STOCK-086.png?v=1788727429","url":"https:\/\/gtghardware.com\/products\/mitsubishi-electric-fx5-8ex-es-digital-input-expansion-module","provider":"GTG Hardware","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
