Inspiration

In an ever-changing market place with pressures from modular systems and logic block

solutions the Micro PLC market is getting tougher and tougher.

For many years the F and FX family have been expanding the boundaries, pushing new

technology, fine-tuning and rounding the FX Family portfolio.

The FX3UC has an immense power to size ratio, the super micro has the same CPU as the

successful FX3U. Due to its physical size it can be used in applications where traditional

PLC’s cannot go.

New markets for a new style PLC.

Typical applications

Limited supply systems such as marine or battery back up and UPS systems can benefit from

the energy efficiency of the FX3UC.

Transistor outputs are the key to the FX3UC. When used in applications that require a

terminal rail, huge cost savings can be realised.

Wiring system configurations

Wiring made easy:

The connections for the FX3UC inputs and

transistor outputs can be wired with ribbon cable

connectors. Remote I/O interface modules with

digital inputs, removable 6 A relay outputs or 2 A

triac outputs or simple 1to1 connections with

optional system cabling sets are available for the

ribbon cable connectors.

Main differences between FX3UC and FX3U and FX2NC

•The majority of the points below highlight strengths in the FX3U series.

•It must be noted that FX3U is the superior controller, but FX3UC will fit in where;

•basic price overrules specification

•space is a premium

•simple wiring options offer a saving

•Care must be taken when specifying FX3UC, especially with respect to the transistor

output specifications

•FX2NC built in transistors are rated lower than FX3UC – see table above for exact

values

Specifications same as FX3UC except module dimensions and those listed below.
