Product Overview
The Omron NX-ID5142-5 is the NX-series 16-point DC input unit with MIL20 connector, manufactured by Omron Corporation. Hengyixin Automation stocks this controller in Xiamen and ships within 3-5 business days to most Asian, European, and North American ports.
It sits on the NX I/O bus behind an NX-ECC201 EtherCAT Coupler or on the right of an NX102 / NX1P2 CPU and reads sixteen 24 VDC sensor signals. The internal I/O common accepts both NPN and PNP inputs without rewiring. Rated 24 VDC, range 15 to 28.8 VDC, input current 7 mA typical.
ON at 15 VDC min / 3 mA min, OFF at 5 VDC max. ON response 20 us max. Selectable Synchronous I/O or Free-Run refreshing. The MIL20 connector (plug not included) takes an XW2Z-100X or XW2Z-200X cable to a XW2D-20G6 terminal block. NX power draw 0.85 W on CPU, 0.55 W on Coupler. The 32-pt MIL40 sibling is NX-ID6142-5.
Key Features
- NX-series 16-point DC input unit for MIL20 connector (plug not included), both NPN and PNP polarity
- Rated input voltage 24 VDC, operating range 15 to 28.8 VDC, input current 7 mA typical at 24 VDC
- ON response 20 us max, OFF response 400 us max, selectable Synchronous I/O refreshing or Free-Run refreshing
- Photocoupler isolation, dielectric 510 VAC for 1 minute, 30 (W) x 100 (H) x 71 (D) mm, 85 g, IP20
- SKU: NX-ID5142-5
- Series: NX-series Digital Input Unit (NX-ID family) on NX I/O Bus
- Voltage: 24 VDC
- I/O: 16 I/O
Best-Fit Applications
- Packaging line where sixteen PNP photoelectric inputs land on an XW2D-20G6 terminal block via an XW2Z-100X 1-meter cable for tool-free panel wiring
- Conveyor cell where eight NPN and eight PNP proximity switches share one NX-ID5142-5 because the slice's NPN/PNP polarity fits both without rewiring
- Spare replacement on a bottling line where the original NX-ID5142-5 was lost and Sysmac Studio holds the I/O map on the SD card
Buying Checklist
- Pick the NX-ID5142-5 when the panel needs 16 inputs on a 30 mm slice and a MIL20 cable to an XW2D-20G6 terminal block.
- Pick the NX-ID5442 instead when the field wiring lands on screwless push-in terminals directly on the slice and no MIL cable is wanted.
- Pick the NX-ID6142-5 instead when 32 inputs on a MIL40 cable are needed for higher-density panels with XW2D-40G6 or G70A-ZOC16-3 terminal blocks.

FAQ for NX-ID5142-5
What is the Omron NX-ID5142-5 used for?
It is the NX-series 16-point DC input unit on the NX I/O bus with a MIL20 connector. Typical uses are packaging lines with PNP photoelectric inputs on an XW2D-20G6 terminal block, conveyor cells with mixed NPN and PNP proximity switches, and spare replacement where Sysmac Studio holds the I/O map.
Does the NX-ID5142-5 accept both NPN and PNP inputs?
Yes. The NX-ID5142-5 lists 'Internal I/O common for both NPN and PNP', which means the slice accepts NPN (sinking) and PNP (sourcing) inputs on the same 16 channels without changing wiring. The ON threshold is 15 VDC min between COM and each signal, so PNP sensors that pull the signal to 24 VDC turn the channel ON.
What cable and terminal block do I use with the NX-ID5142-5?
Use an XW2Z-100X (1 m), XW2Z-200X (2 m), or XW2Z-0500X (5 m) pre-assembled MIL20-to-MIL20 cable to an XW2D-20G6 general-purpose terminal block. For G2RV-SR or G3RV-ST slim relay terminals use a P2RVC-8ST-I-5 (NPN) or -5-1 (PNP) interface unit. The MIL20 plug is not included with the slice.
What is the difference between NX-ID5142-5 and NX-ID5442?
Both are NX-series 16-point DC input units for 24 VDC. The ID5142-5 uses a MIL20 connector and an off-slice cable to a terminal block; the ID5442 has the screwless push-in 16-terminal block on the slice itself and is 12 mm wide instead of 30 mm. Pick the ID5142-5 when a remote terminal block is wanted; pick the ID5442 for the most compact panel.
How do I configure the NX-ID5142-5 in Sysmac Studio?
Add the slice under CPU Rack or EtherCAT Slave Terminal, drag the NX-ID5142-5 from the parts list to the rack, and set the input filter and refreshing mode (Synchronous I/O or Free-Run) on the slice's parameter tab. The slice auto-discovers the MIL20 plug presence; no separate I/O map entry is needed for the cable.
