AJ65FBTA4-16D Mitsubishi Universal Model Redundant Power Supply Module

The Mitsubishi AJ65FBTA4-16D is a highly versatile 16-channel digital input module designed for use with MELSEC programmable logic controllers (PLCs). It belongs to the extensive "F" series of I/O modules, known for their reliability and ease of use. This specific module functions as a DeviceNet slave unit, allowing it to seamlessly integrate a cluster of 16 discrete digital signals into a DeviceNet network. It enables a master device (like a PLC or SCADA system) to monitor the ON/OFF status of multiple field devices (e.g., sensors, switches) over a single network cable, significantly simplifying wiring and reducing installation costs in automated systems.

• DeviceNet Slave Interface: Acts as a slave node on a DeviceNet fieldbus network, providing seamless communication with a DeviceNet master.
• High-Density Inputs: Offers 16 isolated digital input points in a single, compact module, optimizing control panel space.
• Wide Voltage Compatibility: Supports a broad input voltage range (12-24 VDC), making it compatible with standard industrial sensors and control signals.
• LED Status Indicators: Each channel has a corresponding LED that indicates the real-time status (ON/OFF) of the input, facilitating easy troubleshooting and maintenance.
• Easy Installation and Configuration: Features a simple connector-based wiring system and is configured via the DeviceNet network parameters, eliminating the need for complex hardware settings.
• Robust Construction: Built to withstand the harsh conditions of industrial environments, including noise, vibration, and temperature fluctuations.

• Material: The module is constructed with a robust plastic housing for the main body, with a metal connector interface for durability. The internal circuitry uses industrial-grade electronic components.
• Primary Uses:
  • Connecting multiple digital sensors (e.g., proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, limit switches) to a PLC via a DeviceNet network.
  • Monitoring the status of switches, pushbuttons, and relays in distributed control systems.
  • Material handling, packaging, and assembly line automation.
  • Any application requiring the collection of multiple discrete signals over a network to reduce wiring complexity.
