About the Mitsubishi Electric QY68A

The Mitsubishi Electric QY68A is a MELSEC-Q output module. Mitsubishi Electric's overview: Transistor output: 8 points, 5...24 V DC, 2 A/point, 8 A/module, response time: 10 ms, all points independent, sink/source shared type, 18-point terminal block. Mitsubishi Electric names the RY18R2A as its replacement model.

What is the QY68A used for?

The QY68A mounts on a MELSEC-Q base unit and connects field signals to the CPU, which reads or writes them each cycle.

Lifecycle and successor

Phased out.

OEM successor: RY18R2A

Before you order

What to photograph or confirm so the right unit is quoted.

Check the model name QY68A on the rating plate, with the serial number and function version. Send us a photo of the rating plate and we will confirm the details before quoting.
