What you're looking at
The Omron CJ1W-NC113 is a CJ-series Position Control Unit — a single-axis motion control module that mounts on DIN rail and pulls 24 VDC from the backplane, intended for use with the CJ Series. Operating envelope is 0 °C to 55 °C, the standard CJ-family ambient range; enclosure climate is what governs the real headroom in most factory cabinets.
Where it sits in the panel
As a CJ1W I/O-class module it slots into the same rack as standard CJ I/O; mounting is DIN rail, and the supply, approvals envelope, and 0–55 °C operating window match the rest of the CJ1W family. Approvals on this SKU are CE and cULus — that is the on-record compliance envelope; RoHS, REACH, and IEC declarations are not carried in the listing and should be requested through the compliance pack if a tender asks for them.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
The listing carries productStatus Active alongside a flag of eol_hot — read together that means the SKU is still orderable from the factory channel today, with end-of-life pressure building; quote through to date is the safe stance. For a BOM line that has been running on the NC113 for years, the sensible move is to confirm the last-build window now, lock a sparing quantity, and pin a documented alternate before the channel thins. Quote it to your BOM line through the desk and we source against the RFQ.
Single-axis vs the 1-axis alternate CJ1W-NC133
The closest functional second-source inside the same family is the CJ1W-NC133 — also single-axis, same DIN-rail mount, same 24 VDC supply, same rectangular-connector termination, same 0–55 °C window, same CE/cULus approvals. On every cited line the two SKUs read identically, so panel layout and PLC programming carry over.
On refurbished supply
For end-of-life or constrained supply the refurb channel earns its keep on CJ1W-class boards: every unit pulled, recapped where the electrolytics are out of spec, then fully tested and burned-in against the axis loop before grading — so a refurbished right unit is a safer spare than a pulled-untested listing, and the rework document travels with it.
