YOKOGAWA FA-M3 Series Basic Modules

YOKOGAWA FA-M3 Series Basic Modules

Series Overview

The FA-M3 series is Yokogawa's "Range free Multi controllers". The basic modules covered in the document are the core hardware used to build the system, including the base module (carrying various functional modules), power module (power supply core), sequence CPU module (control core), and ROM storage module (program/data storage). The modules need to be matched according to specifications to jointly support high-speed sequence control, data processing, and network communication requirements in industrial scenarios.

Base Modules

Installation restriction: F3BU16-0N cannot be installed on DIN rails; The signal ground is connected to the base metal chassis; It is necessary to ensure that the total current consumption of all modules does not exceed the capacity of the supporting power module.

Size: Different models have different widths (such as F3BU04-0N with a width of 147mm and F3BU16-0N with a width of 527mm), with a uniform height of around 100mm and a depth of approximately 83.2mm (excluding protrusions).

Power Supply Modules

1. Core functions and classification

To provide stable power supply for the FA-M3 series base modules and the modules they are equipped with, each base needs to be equipped with one power module, which is divided into AC type (100-240V AC) and DC type (24V DC) according to the input voltage, and further subdivided into models according to the scale of the adapted base.

Instantaneous power outage tolerance: AC standard mode 20ms, rapid detection mode 10ms; DC standard mode 20ms, rapid detection mode 2ms.

Sequence CPU Modules

1. Classification and core positioning

It is divided into basic type (F3SP22-0S, no network function) and network enhanced type (F3SP71-4S, F3SP76-7S, built-in Ethernet and other network functions), both of which are control cores of the FA-M3 series, responsible for executing ladder diagram programs, I/O control, and system diagnosis.

2. Comparison of key specifications of various models

Model Core Features Program Capacity Processing Speed (Basic Instructions) Maximum I/O Points Communication Interface Current Consumption (5V DC)

F3SP22-0S basic sequence control, no network function 30K steps * 0.045-0.18 μ s/instruction 4096 point programming toolchain interface (115Kbps) 450mA
