DI-A3 Digital Input (BCD Code)

Why Choose the Yaskawa DI-A3 Digital Input Expansion Option?

The Yaskawa DI-A3 is a digital input expansion option card designed for use with Yaskawa A1000 series inverter drives. This module adds additional digital input terminals to the drive, allowing more external control signals to be connected from PLCs, push buttons, sensors or other automation devices.

By installing the DI-A3 option card, engineers can extend the control functionality of the inverter by connecting additional digital commands such as start/stop signals, direction control, preset speed selection or safety interlocks. This allows the drive to integrate more easily into complex industrial automation systems.

The module installs directly inside compatible Yaskawa drives and provides reliable digital input expansion without the need for external I/O modules, making it an efficient solution for control panel integration.
