Product Description
Beckhoff’s products are known for their energy efficiency, operational safety, workers’ safety, and equipment effectiveness. The company was originated in the 1980s and through a network of franchises and partners, established its business in almost 75 countries worldwide. The company’s entire product range is the fruit of rigorous research, development, and continuous advancement.
The CX5140-0121 panel-PC is the most preferred platform for plant engineering applications. The system comes with additional Ethernet, DVI and USB ports. It can also be mounted on the DIN rail because of overall small dimensions (146 mm x 100 mm x 92 mm). The Ethernet interfaces are Gigabit capable. The most prominent feature of this model is its fanless configuration and extremely low power consumption. Low power consumption has been made possible because of the Intel Atom processor that despite having four cores and 1.91 GHz clock speed, has a very low power requirement. The superior computing performance of the quad-core processor plays a crucial role in plant engineering.
The CX5140-0121 consumes 24 Volts (DC) and 16 W power under normal operating conditions. A UPS also comes with the system to ensure uninterrupted operation. When the UPS is attached, the power requirement is 23 W. The system’s vibration/shock resistance conforms with the relevant European standards. This means that the system can function without any damage and frequent maintenance in adverse industrial conditions. Furthermore, a broad working temperature range (-40 ᵒC to 65 ᵒC) also ensures that the system is well-suited for tough operational conditions. The device also comes with the famous TwinCAT software pre-installed. No doubt, the CX5140-0121 can prove to be the ideal machine handling platform in any industrial environment.
