The Mitsubishi Electric FX5-16EX/ES is a 16-point digital input expansion module for MELSEC iQ-F PLC systems, delivering reliable 24 V DC signal acquisition in a compact footprint. Designed for machine builders, panel shops and system integrators, this PLC I/O module adds high-density inputs without increasing cabinet depth, supporting scalable and maintainable industrial automation architectures.

With 16 DC inputs that support sink/source wiring, the FX5-16EX/ES connects natively to the iQ-F platform and uses standard 24 V DC control signals for straightforward integration across machinery and process equipment. It occupies 16 I/O points on the PLC and fits easily into tight panels thanks to its 90 × 40 × 83 mm housing, while CE, UL/cUL and UKCA compliance supports deployment in regulated environments.

Whether you are expanding an existing FX5 installation or standardizing a new machine platform, this digital input module helps reduce engineering time and keeps wiring consistent with common industry practice; to protect your project lifecycle and budget, it also includes a 1-year warranty for added peace of mind.
