Detailed Description:
-
Highly Integrated All-in-One Design: Combines CPU, power supply, and input/output units into a single compact module, allowing the construction of a basic control system without additional power or I/O expansion modules, greatly simplifying system configuration and installation.
-
Flexible Relay Outputs: All 10 output points are relay contact type, each independently isolated, capable of flexibly driving either AC or DC loads (such as contactor coils, solenoid valves, indicator lights) with a load capacity of 2A @ 250V AC / 2A @ 30V DC, providing direct driving capability for small loads.
-
Reliable Digital Inputs: The 14 input points are compatible with DC 24V signals and employ a sinking (Sink) input method, allowing connection to common field devices like pushbuttons, switches, and proximity sensors. Input/output terminals use removable screw-clamp terminal blocks for convenient wiring.
-
Easy Programming and Maintenance: Programmed using Mitsubishi’s simple programming software (e.g., ALPHA2 Programming Tool) via a dedicated programming cable. The instruction set is simple to learn. Built-in RUN/STOP switch and status LEDs (POWER, RUN, ERROR, I/O status) facilitate operation and troubleshooting.
-
Built-in Rich Functions: Despite being a micro PLC, it includes basic logic elements such as timers, counters, auxiliary relays, and a high-speed counter function (on some input points), meeting the needs of most simple sequential control and counting applications.
-
Cost-Effective: As an entry-level PLC product, it offers highly competitive pricing while maintaining Mitsubishi’s reliability, making it an ideal choice for cost-sensitive small projects.
