FX3U MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLERS TO CONTROL THE LEVEL OF FILLING AND STORAGE OF COOLED DOWN MILK

The first compact programmable logic controllers from Mitsubishi Electric were launched in the European market more than 25 years ago. As of today, MELSEC FX

 family controllers are considered to be the most successful compact PLC in the world. FX3U series refers to the third generation of Mitsubishi Electric controllers. The new central processor made FX3U PLC even more flexible. No doubt that the operation speed increased by 4.5 times (0.065 µs for processing of one logical instruction) deeply impresses. The following options are very pleasant:

 - a new expansion bus on the left side of the base unit,

 - increased number of inputs and outputs,

 - extended memory (8 times more than FX2U memory),

 - 75 new instructions, high-speed positioning,

 - enhanced data transfer opportunities and many other improvements
