Kawasaki 50999-2142R00 1JF-51 Control Board

Description

Product Introduction & Engineering Value

Kawasaki 50999-2142R00 is a 1JF-51 control circuit board associated with the Kawasaki D-series controller architecture. The strongest available field evidence places it in a D32F-A001 controller serving a ZZX130L, six-axis, 130 kg-class robot.

One important detail stands out: the documented board carries an HMS/Anybus network interface card, model ABS/DP-EIT-3, HMS 018760. That means the exact board assembly should be compared carefully with the installed unit rather than assuming every 1JF-51 board has identical communication hardware.

Technical Specifications

The 96-pin connector identification is independently supported by an industrial controls supplier listing for 50999-2142R00, which describes it as a Kawasaki control circuit board with a male 96-pin connector.

Field Application & the “Trench” Experience

This is a good example of why Kawasaki legacy controller spares need to be sourced by complete assembly identification.

Imagine a ZZX130L production robot develops a controller communication fault. The D32F-A001 cabinet is already several decades into its service life, and the plant has no spare 1JF-51 board. A replacement is located, but the seller’s photographs show only the Kawasaki board number.

The technician should stop there.

The installed board should be compared for the 1JF-51 designation, 50999-2142R00 number, connector configuration, and attached HMS/Anybus card. A documented D32F-A001/ZZX130L assembly contains the HMS network card, so replacing the bare PCB while omitting or changing the communication hardware could create a second problem after the original board fault is corrected.

Niche application scenarios

• Kawasaki ZZX130L material-handling cell: D32F-A001 controller board replacement.
• Heavy-payload robotic handling: six-axis Kawasaki robot control using the legacy architecture.
• Industrial Ethernet/fieldbus integration: 1JF-51 board equipped with the documented HMS/Anybus network interface.
• Legacy robot controller refurbishment: board-level repair instead of replacing the complete cabinet.

Transparency SOP: QA & Testing

For New Surplus or Refurbished 50999-2142R00, I would use this acceptance sequence:

1. Part-number check — Verify 50999-2142R00.
2. Board identification — Confirm 1JF-51.
3. Connector inspection — Compare the male 96-pin connector with the original.
4. Network-card inspection — Determine whether the HMS/Anybus interface is installed and record its identification.
5. PCB inspection — Check components, solder joints, traces, connectors, and signs of overheating.
6. Controller compatibility — Verify the intended controller configuration.
7. Power-up test — Test under controlled conditions in a compatible Kawasaki controller.
8. Network test — Where the HMS card is fitted, verify the communication interface.
9. Robot communication test — Check controller-to-robot operation with an appropriate ZZX130L or compatible test setup.
10. Documentation — Record the board serial/identification, test results, and warranty.

Do not accept “tested” as sufficient information. Ask whether the seller performed only a power-up test or actually tested controller and network functions.

The Veteran’s Tech Trap Guide

⚠️ Trap #1 — Confusing the PCB with the network card

The 1JF-51 / 50999-2142R00 is the Kawasaki control board. The documented assembly can additionally carry an HMS 018760 network card. These are separate identification points.

PRO TIP: When buying a complete used assembly, ask the seller to photograph both the Kawasaki board label and the attached HMS card.

⚠️ Trap #2 — Ignoring the controller model

A current field record specifically identifies this board in a controller for a .

Do not assume that a 1JF-51 found in another Kawasaki cabinet is automatically interchangeable.

⚠️ Trap #3 — Missing the network configuration

The documented HMS card is identified as:

• HMS/Anybus: AB2478
• Model: ABS/DP-EIT-3
• HMS No.: 018760
• Assembly: 2204-131

Those identifiers are useful when comparing a replacement against the installed assembly.

⚠️ Trap #4 — Buying only from a stock photograph

Legacy Kawasaki boards frequently appear as used or refurbished inventory. The actual board matters. Ask for photographs of the actual 50999-2142R00, including connectors and any attached communication card.

Dynamic FAQ

What is Kawasaki 50999-2142R00?

It is a Kawasaki 1JF-51 control circuit board used in Kawasaki robot controller systems. A documented example is instalin a controller for a robot.

What controller is associated with 50999-2142R00?

The strongest available equipment-level evidence associates it with the controller.

Which Kawasaki robot is associated with this board?

A documented configuration uses it with the , a six-axis robot with a 130 kg payload rating.

Does 50999-2142R00 include an Ethernet or fieldbus card?

The documented used assembly has an attached HMS/Anybus 018760 network card, identified as ABS/DP-EIT-3. However, do not assume every bare 50999-2142R00 board includes that card.

What connector does the 1JF-51 use?

A current industrial spare-parts listing identifies the board as having a male 96-pin connector.

Is 50999-2142R00 still available?

It remains visible in the secondary industrial-automation market. Current listings show used examples, including complete boards with the HMS network card.

Can I substitute another 1JF board?

Do not assume interchangeability. Verify the complete part number 50999-2142R00, board rion, controller configuration, connector arrangement, network hardware, and robot application.

How should New Surplus or Refurbished stock be verified?

Request actual-unit photographs, the 50999-2142R00 and 1JF-51 markings, connector photographs, HMS card identification if included, functional-test results, and written warranty terms. For a board this specific, those details are more useful than a generic “tested” or “refurbished” label.
