Product Description

A member of the flexible CX Series, the Beckhoff CX1800-1080 Embedded PC delivers a wide range of technical specifications designed for use in industrial applications.

These PCs are powered by high-performance processors such as Intel Atom® or AMD Ryzen™ processors, designed to run computations fast and efficiently. A key feature of the CX Series is that it is a fanless cooling design. Units will be mounted in a DIN rail, allowing flexible location in a control cabinet, or optimized use of space. DDR3 RAM, which can start at 512MB, is the first of the memory configurations, and they have microSD slots for more RAM expansion depending on the processing task needed. The Windows Embedded operating system support covers a variety of versions and makes the system stable and compatible across a wide range of industrial applications. Embedded PCs usually come with an embedded PSU (power supply unit) usually with UPS support (Uninterruptible Power Supply) in case of small power interruptions. Networking capabilities are robust with one or more RJ45 ports supporting 10/100 Mbit/s connections to provide dependable network connectivity. It also has comprehensive I/O connectivity with E-bus or K-bus terminals. Integration into distributed control systems is offered by employing supported fieldbus interfaces such as EtherCAT, PROFIBUS, and CANopen. Because of their durability and reliability in industrial applications, PCs use Compact Flash cards for storage.

The series is characterized by its low thermal power dissipation of about 8 W, which is extremely important in tight spaces as it reduces the amount of heat being output. Modularity is emphasized to allow for customization and expansion with different modules and interfaces as necessary. The system’s operational state is supplied via LED indicators located in the units, which are designed for use in harsh industrial environments with built-in compliance to EMC and resistance to shock and vibration. It is compatible with TwinCAT software, for advanced programming, control, and monitoring of automation processes, complementing its functionality and application range. Wake Industrial offers a one-year guarantee on this device.
