Mitsubishi FX2N-48MT-001 PLC 48 I/O Transistor

FX2N-48MT-001 48-Channel AC Powered PLC Unit

Product Introduction

The Mitsubishi FX2N-48MT-001 belongs to the reliable FX2N series of programmable controllers. This main unit delivers 24 input points and 24 transistor output points. It operates on a wide 85-264 VAC power supply at 50/60 Hz with only 50VA consumption.

You can control between 16 and 256 points total when using expansion modules. The built-in RAM holds 8K steps, extendable to 16K. CPU processing speed reaches 0.08 µs per basic instruction, making it suitable for mid-sized automation tasks.

Furthermore, this FX2N-48MT-001 includes two independent axes for positioning at up to 20kHz. The transistor output type makes it perfect for high-speed switching and servo control applications.

Mechanical & Environmental Parameters

The Mitsubishi FX2N-48MT-001 uses a quick-disconnect terminal block for simple wiring replacement. Its compact 285mm width fits standard control cabinets easily. Operating temperature ranges from 0°C to 55°C. Storage temperature goes from -20°C to 70°C. Relative humidity should remain between 20% and 90% without condensation.

Vibration resistance meets 5g at 10–57Hz. Noise immunity follows IEC 61131-2 standards for industrial environments.

Installation Guidelines

First, mount the FX2N-48MT-001 horizontally on a DIN rail or directly with M4 screws. Keep at least 50mm clearance above and below for proper airflow. Next, connect the 85-264 VAC power supply to the L and N terminals. Always use a circuit breaker for protection.

Then wire input devices (sensors, switches, encoders) to the 24 input points. Connect output loads to the 24 transistor outputs. For inductive loads, install flyback diodes. Finally, attach expansion modules on the right side. The FX2N-48MT-001 supports up to 256 total I/O with remote modules.

Additional Features

This PLC includes built-in 20kHz positioning for two independent axes. The quick-disconnect terminal block significantly reduces maintenance time. You can also connect analog, temperature, and communication special function modules.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can I expand the memory on the FX2N-48MT-001?
Yes, the built-in 8K RAM extends to 16K using an optional memory cassette (FX2N-16LNK-M or similar).

2. Does this AC-powered model support DC input devices?
Absolutely. The 24 input points accept DC24V sinking signals from sensors, switches, and other DC devices.

3. What is the maximum output switching frequency?
The transistor outputs on the FX2N-48MT-001 support up to 20kHz for positioning pulses. For general outputs, the maximum is 100Hz.

4. Is this unit compatible with the FX2N-4AD analog module?
Yes, you can connect the FX2N-4AD analog input module to the right side of the main unit.

5. What happens if I mistakenly wire DC power to this AC unit?
The internal power supply expects 85-264 VAC. Applying DC voltage will not damage it immediately but will prevent operation. Always verify your power source.
