Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
When the F3YP04-ON is discontinued, hard to source, or requires a functional substitute, the following models may serve as direct or near-equivalent replacements. Always verify electrical and mechanical compatibility before substitution.
- YOKOGAWA F3YP08-ON — 8-point cam positioner; pin-compatible upgrade for higher-density applications
- YOKOGAWA F3YP18-ON — 16-point cam positioner; same FA-M3 bus interface, expanded output
- YOKOGAWA F3NC32-ON / F3NC96-ON — Motion control modules; suitable when full servo/stepper axis control is required
- YOKOGAWA F3YP04-0N (legacy variant) — Functionally identical; verify suffix for connector type
- Third-party cam controllers — Mitsubishi QD75 series or Omron MC Unit may be considered with custom wiring adapters; consult engineering before substitution
Note: Konmask.com recommends using genuine YOKOGAWA OEM parts for safety-critical applications. Contact us for cross-reference verification.

Selection Guide
Use the table below to select the correct YOKOGAWA cam positioner for your application:
| Model | Cam Points | Encoder Input | Output Type | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| F3YP04-ON | 4 | Incremental A/B/Z | NPN Transistor | Standard 4-axis cam control |
| F3YP08-ON | 8 | Incremental A/B/Z | NPN Transistor | Higher-density cam switching |
| F3YP18-ON | 16 | Incremental A/B/Z | NPN Transistor | Complex multi-cam machinery |
| F3NC32-ON | N/A | Servo/Pulse | Pulse Train | Full motion axis control |
Selection tip: If your machine requires ≤4 independent cam outputs from a single encoder, the F3YP04-ON is the most cost-effective choice. Upgrade to F3YP08-ON or F3YP18-ON only when additional cam points are required.
