What this delivery is: a Mitsubishi HC-MFS43 AC servo motor — the 400 W, 3000 r/min low-inertia frame — brand new in its factory carton with a one-year warranty per the record, received stock uploaded 2025-10-16. The nameplate reads INPUT 3AC 122V 2.8A, which is the 122-volt class of this motor: if your amplifier runs from a 200–230 V supply, this is not the winding for it. The carton label dates production 2016-09-20, so this is factory-sealed original stock that sat on a shelf — the label, the twist-tied cables in their protective bags and the paper-wrapped shaft all match that state. The nameplate weighs the motor at 1.5 kg; the delivery tag books 2 kg, which is motor plus carton. Both numbers are reported as they stand.

Reading the motor

The HC-MFS43 is Mitsubishi's low-inertia small-capacity series in the 60 mm square flange. The nameplate carries the full working set: OUTPUT 400W per IEC60034-1:99, rated speed 3000 r/min, enclosure IP55, insulation Class B, and serial 2Z0309220 15Z — the same string as the L NO on the carton label, so motor and box travelled together from the factory (MADE IN JAPAN on both). The rear cover carries the handling warning in Japanese and English — avoid sharp impact to detector or shaft end — over the TÜV Rheinland BAUART GEPRÜFT type-approval mark and the CE mark. Wiring exits as two cables: a power connector with three blades and a locking latch, and a white 2×2 encoder plug; both connector ends ride in plastic sleeves from the factory. The shaft end is wrapped in kraft paper under orange tape, the standard Mitsubishi factory protection.

Fitment notes

The 122 V input line is the deciding spec: this motor pairs with Mitsubishi amplifiers of the 100/122 V class — the sort of drive our MR-J2S-100A servo amplifier article covers — and will not suit a 220 V-class MR-J2S/MR-J3 without the matching winding. The HC-MFS family sits in Mitsubishi's low-inertia column, one step from the economy HC-KFS: we covered the HC-KFS43G1 from the same 60 mm frame in an earlier record, and the two are close enough in outline that the flange drawing is worth checking before substituting one for the other. Mounting is the standard four-bolt square flange with the pilot spigot registering into the machined face; keep the impact warning in mind when keying the coupling — a hammer on the shaft end travels straight to the encoder and can kill an otherwise perfect motor.
