The FX3UC-32MT/DSS by Mitsubishi delivers advanced control performance while consuming just 8W of power, making it a top choice for energy-efficient automation systems. Operating on a reliable 24V DC power supply, this controller features 32K STEPS of EEPROM-based program memory, which ensures data retention even during power lossβcrucial in industrial environments with inconsistent voltage.
Engineered for high-speed processing, the FX3UC-32MT/DSS achieves an impressive 65 ns cycle time</strong for LD commands and 642 ns for MOV instructions, enabling real-time decision-making in critical control applications. With 16 digital inputs and 16 digital outputs using source-type transistor logic, it provides accurate and reliable switching in high-speed systems. The controller supports up to 256 local and 384 total I/O points through expansion, making it future-ready for both small machines and scalable industrial setups.
Despite its power, the unit maintains a compact footprintβjust 34 mm wide, 90 mm tall, and 74 mm deep, weighing only 0.2 kg. This makes it perfect for dense control cabinets and mobile panels. Rated at IP10, it performs reliably in ambient temperatures up to 55Β°C. The Mitsubishi FX3UC-32MT/DSS PLC meets stringent safety standards, including UL/cUL and UKCA certifications, and carries marine approvals like ABS, BV, DNV GL, LR, and RINA. Its optional buffer battery and multi-protocol communication support (Ethernet, RS-485) further reinforce its adaptability in smart factories and IIoT-ready systems.

The Mitsubishi FX3UC-32MT/DSS PLC is widely used across packaging machinery, textile automation, process instrumentation panels, and automated assembly lines. Its transistor outputs make it especially effective for high-speed operations such as sorting, indexing, and rapid triggering of solenoid valves and actuators.
In Indian industries, this model is favored for its ability to function in compact spaces and its compatibility with advanced expansion modules for analog, pulse, and communication functions. Maintenance engineers appreciate the quick installation and modular design, while system integrators value the high-speed logic processing for synchronizing multi-axis processes.
Students and junior engineers find the FX3UC series an accessible learning platform due to its predictable behavior and widely documented instruction sets. For factories focused on lean automation, energy efficiency, and durability under fluctuating power conditions, the FX3UC-32MT/DSS proves to be a dependable and future-ready PLC solution.
