MPA Series
MPA Series is a modular industrial PLC family that controls digital I/O, analog I/O, temperature sensor inputs, and high-speed pulse I/O using MP STUDIO ladder logic.
Program with ladder logic using MP STUDIO.
Select a CPU module, I/O modules, and optional modules to configure the product. The product is assembled and shipped in the selected configuration.
Supports 1 RS-232 channel, 1 RS-485 channel, and 1 UART channel.
MP STUDIO 2 is planned for release. MP STUDIO 2 is compatible with MP STUDIO.
How to read model names
- The leading number in
8A,16A,24A, etc. is the number of digital inputs. - The number before
Ris the number of relay outputs. - The number before
Tis the number of transistor outputs. 16A32Ris a model with 16 digital inputs and 32 relay outputs.24A24Tis a model with 24 digital inputs and 24 transistor outputs.

Optional modules provide analog I/O, temperature sensor inputs, and high-speed pulse outputs.
Optional modules
The following optional modules can be added to the product configuration. The product is assembled and shipped in the selected configuration.
Users cannot add or remove I/O modules or optional modules.
| Code | Function | Points per module | Maximum configuration | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| X | Analog inputs | 4 points | Up to 5 units, 20 points | Select DC 0~5V / 0~10V / 0(4)~20mA / NTC input |
| F | PT100Ω temperature sensor input | 4 points | Up to 5 units, 20 points | 2-wire or 3-wire PT100Ω input |
| Y | Analog outputs | 3 points | Up to 4 units, 12 points | Select DC 0~5V / 0~10V / 0(4)~20mA output |
| K | High-speed pulse outputs | 6 points | Up to 2 units, 12 points | DC 5V, Max. 1MHz |
The combined total of analog inputs and PT100Ω temperature sensor inputs cannot exceed 20 points.
The combined total of analog outputs and high-speed pulse outputs cannot exceed 12 points.
Products with optional modules are custom-built, so exchanges or refunds may be difficult.
