Availability

FX3U-16MR/ES-A is sourced from our vetted surplus and refurbishment network rather than held on a shelf, which is why we can offer parts the manufacturer no longer sells. Condition is confirmed in writing before you pay — new surplus, refurbished, or used and tested — and is stated on the invoice as a contractual term, never as marketing.

If FX3U-16MR/ES-A cannot be found

These are the alternatives we would consider, with what each one actually costs you to fit. None of them is a blind swap — read the condition on each.

Larger capacity, same form factor — fits and behaves as a supersetFits and runs with no changes

Same FX3U base unit with 32 I/O instead of 16. The program runs unchanged, and the extra points are simply unused — but the unit is physically wider, so check the DIN rail space before promising it.

Verify before fitting. These are sourcing suggestions from our own experience, not engineering approval. You remain responsible for confirming revision and firmware compatibility and for commissioning. We do not offer substitutions for safety-related or safety-instrumented functions at all — see our terms of sale.
