Mitsubishi CL2Y8-TP1B2 - Programmable Logic Controller

The Mitsubishi CL2Y8-TP1B2 is part of the CC-Link/LT series and is engineered to support transistor output (sink logic) for high-speed switching applications. With 8 integrated digital outputs and a rated load voltage of 12/24 VDC, this PLC ensures stable signal delivery to actuators, indicators, and small motors in industrial systems. It uses screw-type wiring for secure connections and has a low internal current consumption of just 0.04 A, making it energy-efficient in 24 V DC-powered control panels.

Designed with a compact form factor—just 64 mm wide, 49 mm high, and weighing 0.09 kg—the CL2Y8-TP1B2 fits easily into space-constrained cabinets. It supports vertical mounting and maintains reliable operation between -10°C to 60°C. With an IP20 enclosure and built-in EMC filter, it ensures protection against dust and electrical noise. Engineers can expect consistent switching performance with a nominal frequency of 4 kHz, adjustable up to 16 kHz with derating. The PLC supports up to 0.55 hp (0.37 kW) output loads and meets IEC 60068-2-6 vibration resistance standards, ensuring long-term performance in dynamic environments.

Built for decentralized control and reliable communication, this Mitsubishi PLC features an RJ45 port for seamless integration into CC-Link field networks. It occupies just 1 station, making it ideal for distributed setups requiring multiple I/O nodes. Backed by Mitsubishi's proven engineering quality, the CL2Y8-TP1B2 is a trusted choice among automation professionals who demand compactness, stability, and seamless interoperability.
