FX3U-4DA-ADP 4-Channel Analog Output Adapter 12-Bit | Mitsubishi

The Original New Mitsubishi FX3U-4DA-ADP is a 4-channel analog output adapter for the MELSEC-F FX3U series programmable controllers. As a special adapter that connects directly to the left side of the CPU module, it converts digital values into precise analog voltage or current outputs for controlling variable frequency drives, proportional valves, and other analog field devices. Each channel is independently configurable for voltage (0–10 V DC, 12-bit) or current (4–20 mA DC, 11-bit) output. Data transmission requires no dedicated instructions, simplifying integration into existing programs. With a compact 17.6 mm width and DIN rail mounting capability, the FX3U-4DA-ADP delivers high-accuracy analog control for machine automation, process control, and OEM equipment.

Core Engineering Highlights:
4 analog output channels (voltage/current, per-channel configurable) | Voltage: 0–10 V DC (12-bit, 2.5 mV resolution) | Current: 4–20 mA DC (11-bit, 4 µA resolution) | Photocoupler isolation between analog output section and PLC | Occupies 0 I/O points | 5 V DC 15 mA (internal) + 24 V DC 150 mA (external) power supply | 17.6 × 90 × 89.5 mm | Approx. 0.1 kg
