Product Description

The Beckhoff CX Embedded PC Series model CX5120-0100 was developed to give the industrial sector powerful computing capabilities in a tiny package.

This gadget comes with an Intel Atom E3815 CPU, which has a clock speed of 1.20GHz and a single core for solid performance in tasks demanding consistent and effective processing. This unit features a built-in 512MB microSD card for storage in flash memory, and it has 2GB of DDR3 RAM that is not user-upgradeable. This configuration is sufficiently robust to support most of the industrial use without the need for complex memory management. Some examples of advanced connectivity interfaces are four USB 2.0 ports for peripherals, two RJ45 (10/100/1000 Mbit/s) network connectors, and DVI-I for video output signals. The fluid loops are liquid-cooled and utilize a passive cooling system, which eliminates the complexity of moving parts and the necessitous of maintenance, with the added advantage of guaranteeing a stable operation in high-temperature conditions. This is because the diagnostic LEDs on the unit highlight the power, TC status, flash access, and bus status, making inspection and upkeep easier. For recording operations and stamp time and date, a battery-operated clock/real-time clock (RTC) is included.

This CX5120-0100 model runs on Windows Embedded Compact 7 and is integrated with TwinCAT 2 and TwinCAT 3 for effective runtime control in automation and control operations. Since it offers automatic connections between E-bus and K-bus, it can be used in any industrial setting. The device's 128 kB of Novram and low power consumption of 10 watts make it perfect for usage in manufacturing environments. It has a 2 A supply current for E-bus/K-bus, and a 24 V DC power supply with a voltage regulation range of -15%/+20%. Wake Industrial offers a one-year guarantee on this device.
