The AFP7Y16R is a 16-point relay output module for the Panasonic FP7 PLC series.
Sixteen relay outputs provide isolated dry-contact switching per channel.
Lifecycle status is active. Source to order against an RFQ; lead time depends on current factory backlog.
Drop-in vs the solid-state siblings
The AFP7Y16T and AFP7Y16P are the 16-point solid-state (transistor) versions — same footprint, same DIN-rail mount, same pluggable screw terminal. If your panel was wired for the AFP7Y16T, the AFP7Y16R will physically snap into the same rail slot and the connector pattern is identical. The difference is the output type: relay gives you dry-contact isolation and handles AC or DC loads per point; transistor gives you faster switching (no mechanical wear) but needs a common supply polarity. No rewiring needed for the swap — just verify your load voltages are within the relay's rated range.
