Is the Mitsubishi Electric FR-E720-080SC-NA discontinued?

On ECS's lifecycle assessment, the FR-E720-080SC-NA has been cancelled: no longer sold as a current product, though spares may remain available for a period.

Source: ECS lifecycle assessment, based on ECS's internal lifecycle data in Command Centre. Last checked . Always confirm a specific part's status with the manufacturer before buying or planning a migration.

What Cancellation means for you

You can no longer order it as a normal product, and nothing new should be designed around it. If machines depend on it, you want spare stock you can rely on and a migration plan. Both start with knowing how many you run and whether each has a backup.

How ECS defines Cancellation · all four lifecycle stages

Before replacing servo or motion hardware

Motion hardware is usually tied to the motor, feedback device, gearing, tuning, safety functions and controller-side motion instructions. We would identify those dependencies before assuming a newer unit can replace the existing one.

For a production-critical axis, planned migration gives time to retune and prove motion safely; doing that work during an unplanned stoppage is where obsolescence becomes expensive.

Common questions about the FR-E720-080SC-NA

Is the Mitsubishi Electric FR-E720-080SC-NA discontinued?

On ECS's lifecycle assessment, the FR-E720-080SC-NA has been cancelled: no longer sold as a current product, though spares may remain available for a period.

Can I still buy a FR-E720-080SC-NA?

Not as a normal new product. Remaining distributor stock or designated spares may still be available. Buy any you need now.

How do I back up a FR-E720-080SC-NA?

The exact software version and cable depend on the unit's firmware. ECS records both for every unit it captures, alongside a verified backup.

With a backup, a failed unit is hours. Without one, it is days.

A Capture audit finds every FR-E720-080SC-NA on your site, takes a backup of each one it can reach, and records the software version and cable needed to restore it. When a discontinued unit fails and a replacement turns up, the program is ready to load.

  • Every device located, photographed and lifecycle-checked
  • Backups taken on the day, with software version and cable recorded
  • Findings report, plus a populated Command Centre
  • No production downtime
