Product Description

Q172LX Mitsubishi Universal model Redundant Power Supply Module

 

Q172LX Description

 
The MITSUBISHI Q172LX is a dedicated servo external signal interface module belonging to the MELSEC-Q Series motion control system. Designed as a high-density I/O module for multi-axis servo systems, it provides a robust connection point for essential external control signals, supporting up to 8 servo axes simultaneously. This module handles 32 points of critical input signals including Forward Limit Switch (FLS), Reverse Limit Switch (RLS), Emergency Stop (STOP), and Home Position Dog (DOG) for each axis, ensuring safe and precise motion control operation. It is specifically engineered to interface with Q Series motion CPUs (such as Q172HCPU, Q173HCPU, Q172CPUN, Q173CPUN) and mounts directly onto the Q Series backplane, offering reliable, optically isolated signal input for industrial automation environments. Note: This product was discontinued in September 2018, with the successor model being Q172DLX.
 

Q172LX Key Features

 
  • 8-Axis Signal Support: Handles 32 external input points (FLS, RLS, STOP, DOG × 8 axes) for complete multi-axis servo control.
  • Flexible Input Type: Supports both source-type and sink-type input connections, compatible with a wide range of sensors and switches.
  • Optical Isolation: Full optocoupler isolation between input circuits and the PLC internal logic, providing superior noise immunity and electrical protection in industrial environments.
  • Wide Voltage Compatibility: Operates on 12/24 V DC input signals, with a wide operating voltage range of 10.2 V to 26.4 V DC.
  • Fast Response Time: Fast signal response (default 0.4 ms, configurable to 0.6/1 ms) for real-time motion control safety and positioning.
  • Compact Design: Slim 1-slot width (27.4 mm) for high-density mounting in Q Series racks, saving valuable control cabinet space
  • Status Indication: Equipped with LED status indicators for power and input signal status, facilitating quick diagnostics and setup.
  • Global Certifications: Conforms to UL, cUL, CE (EMC/RoHS), and KC (EMC) standards for global use.
  • Easy Integration: Seamless compatibility with MELSEC-Q Series motion CPUs and standard 40-pin industrial connectors.
 

Q172LX Materials & Applications

 

Materials

 
  • Housing: High-strength, flame-retardant (UL94 V-0) engineering plastic, ensuring durability and electrical safety.
  • Circuit Board: Multi-layer FR-4 glass epoxy PCB with robust copper traces for stable signal transmission and heat dissipation.
  • Connectors: Industrial-grade 40-pin connector (compatible with A6CON series) for secure, high-density wiring.
  • Internal Components: High-reliability optocouplers, precision resistors, and capacitors designed for continuous industrial operation.
  • Terminals: Nickel-plated copper alloy contacts for corrosion resistance and stable electrical connections.
 

Typical Applications

 
  • CNC Machine Tools: Limit switch and home position signal input for multi-axis machining centers, lathes, and grinders.
  • Industrial Robots: Safety limit and stop signal interface for articulated robot arms and linear motion robots.
  • Semiconductor Manufacturing: Precision positioning signal input for wafer handlers, die bonders, and inspection equipment.
  • Packaging & Printing Machinery: 8-axis control signal interface for high-speed packaging lines, labelers, and printing presses.
  • Material Handling Systems: Safety and positioning signals for conveyor systems, pick-and-place machines, and XY tables.
  • Assembly Automation: Limit and home signals for automated assembly lines, insertion machines, and transfer systems.
  • Textile & Fiber Processing: Control signal interface for high-speed winding, spinning, and weaving machinery.
