Mitsubishi Electric FX1S-14MT-001 Programmable Logic Controller

The Mitsubishi Electric FX1S-14MT-001 Programmable Logic Controller is a compact base-unit PLC designed for reliable discrete I/O control in small automation systems where space is at a premium. It targets packaging equipment, small conveyors, pump skids, material handling gear, labeling machines, and standalone automation panels in light manufacturing and OEM machinery, with maintenance teams, OEMs, and system integrators using it for repairs, control panel builds, retrofits, and entry-level PLC upgrades that prioritize simplicity and a small footprint. Key specs include 14 total I/O points (8 digital inputs and 6 transistor outputs) with a Sink/Source output configuration (model dependent), 100–240 VAC supply, a 2,000-step program capacity, and an execution speed of approximately 0.55 µs per basic instruction. Communication is via a programming port (RS-422 via adapter); expansion is limited to FX-series options, and the unit is designed for DIN rail or panel mounting in industrial control cabinet environments. Part number FX1S-14MT-001, from Mitsubishi Electric, part of the FX1S series.
