Engineered for precision and speed, the FX5-8EYT/ES offers 8 transistor output points with SINK logic, enabling swift signal control in real-time automation environments. Backed by Mitsubishi's trusted MELSEC iQ-F Series platform, this module delivers a nominal output current of 2.4 A at 4 kHz with frequency range capabilities from 2 to 16 kHz. Above 4 kHz, the unit features automatic derating to ensure thermal stability, making it suitable for continuous operation in high-speed systems.
Its compact body—only 90 mm in height and weighing just 165 g—is optimized for space-constrained control panels without compromising on output performance. The integrated RJ45 connector allows for simple, reliable wiring, while its IP20 protection rating ensures safety in industrial enclosures. The module operates stably between -10°C and 60°C and complies with IEC 60068-2-6 for vibration resistance, supporting deployment in harsh, high-vibration production environments. Designed for cabinet mounting, the FX5-8EYT/ES supports vertical installation with a ±10° tolerance—ideal for stacked or modular panel designs.
With a 2-wire RS 485 interface for robust serial communication, the FX5-8EYT/ES connects smoothly with existing Mitsubishi PLC architectures, especially where fast digital outputs are critical. It is widely trusted across applications such as robotic arm control, motor switching, and synchronized line packaging where output timing and reliability directly impact throughput. For engineers prioritizing compactness, speed, and seamless Mitsubishi integration, the FX5-8EYT/ES offers a proven solution.
The Mitsubishi FX5-8EYT/ES PLC is ideal for engineers building automated machinery that needs fast, repeated output switching—such as packaging lines, indexing conveyors, and pick-and-place robotics. It provides accurate control over solenoids, relays, or actuators, especially in setups requiring rapid on/off cycles without lag or missed signals.
Maintenance teams appreciate its plug-and-play compatibility with iQ-F series CPUs, reducing downtime during system expansions or module replacements. Even junior engineers can quickly understand its SINK logic output behavior thanks to standard wiring and clear terminal layouts. Its compact body fits effortlessly into tight cabinets, making it an easy choice for space-optimized panels in factories.
Whether you're upgrading an existing system or designing a new machine from scratch, the FX5-8EYT/ES offers the speed, reliability, and ease-of-use required for today’s dynamic automation demands. With its proven durability and Mitsubishi’s global support ecosystem, this PLC output module helps drive production efficiency in every application.
