Mitsubishi Electric Automation introduces the FX3S micro PLC. The FX3S micro PLC gives the user the ability to choose only the functionality required for a specific application, saving on hardware costs.
The FX3S offers full PLC control functionality, with built-in high-speed inputs and outputs, relay outputs and built-in communications ports. It also includes expansion capabilities for communications, analog and temperature control. As part of the FX3 series, the FX3S can utilise many of the existing programming capabilities available on other FX3 series PLCs, greatly reducing system set-up time.
The FX3S micro PLC is designed for basic control tasks, such as simple positioning, analog processing and temperature control. The FX3S excels in small, stand-alone applications that do not require complex control tasks. The compact PLC is particularly suitable for food and beverage, as well as material handling and fan and pump applications for irrigation and building automation.
Communication options are available for RS-232, RS-485, Modbus and Ethernet.
The FX3S is highly advanced and improved in all areas compared to the successful FX1S.
Some advantages:
> Standard USB programming port and RS422 port for HMI panels
> 3 times faster program processing (21 µs / basic instruction)
> EEPROM memory with 4000 steps program (was 2000 steps) + 12000 steps for file registers and comments
> Communication extensions with, for example, Modbus or Ethernet
> Expandable with FX3U “ADP modules” or with FX3G “BD option boards”
> Fast inputs with 2x60kHz and 4x 10kHz signals
> Fast transistor outputs with 2x100kHz (transistor type)
> Installation dimensions equal to FX1S models
> Available in models with 10, 14, 20 and 30 I/O
> GX Works2 version 1.469 and later
