The Mitsubishi QY68A PLC from the MELSEC-Q Series delivers high-performance transistor output functionality with the added flexibility of both sink and source logic. Engineered to operate within a rated load voltage of 5–24 VDC, this module is ideal for driving various digital output devices in complex industrial control systems.
It comes with 8 integrated digital outputs while occupying only 16 I/O points on the main PLC unit, offering a compact yet powerful solution for signal output. The unit supports screw terminal wiring for firm and vibration-resistant connections, while the module’s compact structure—27.4 mm wide, 98 mm high, and 90 mm deep—makes it easy to install even in tightly packed panels. With a total weight of just 0.14 kg and internal current consumption of 0.11 A, it ensures energy efficiency without compromising performance.
The QY68A is built with Mitsubishi’s proven design philosophy—stable, reliable, and long-lasting. Its compatibility with the full range of MELSEC-Q CPUs and I/O systems enables seamless integration into both existing and new automation setups. Whether you're managing outputs for relays, solenoids, signal lamps, or actuators, this module ensures precise control and consistent output timing.
The Mitsubishi QY68A PLC is widely deployed in industries that require fast, flexible output control—such as food processing, automotive manufacturing, bottling plants, and packaging lines. Its ability to switch between sink and source output logic gives engineers more freedom in system design, especially when connecting with diverse types of sensors and actuators.
This module is particularly effective in systems where precise signal control and response time are critical. For example, in high-speed bottling lines, the QY68A can accurately drive valve controls or motor relays in synchronization with conveyor sensors. It is also suitable for monitoring safety interlocks, signaling systems, and batch operation indicators. Its compatibility with Mitsubishi’s MELSEC-Q architecture makes it a preferred choice for both retrofits and new system builds.
Maintenance professionals and design engineers appreciate its ease of wiring, compactness, and long operational life. For automation professionals looking to scale their I/O setup without increasing panel space or energy usage, the Mitsubishi QY68A PLC is a powerful and proven solution.
