Product Description
This is the B & R Automation 5PP120.0571-27, an industrial power panel that fulfills the needs of modern automation systems through advanced technology. This panel is part of the 5PP Series and features a reliable 32-bit x86 processing chip, the Geode SC2200 that operates at 266 MHz. For enhanced processing capability, the unit incorporates 128 MB DRAM and 16 KB L1 cache to efficiently handle the data required for various tasks. Additional features such as MMX technology and streaming SIMD extension further enhance the computational power of the product, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
The 5PP120.0571-27 utilizes a heat sink for cooling, which operates almost silently. Since it does not use a fan, it requires less frequent maintenance, thus improving system availability. Fast and reliable network connections are provided by Ethernet features with 10/100 Mbps speeds, which are crucial for the operation of automation industries. The controller supports CompactFlash Type I, offering one slot for storage expansion, useful for managing large datasets and controlling complex algorithms.
The BIOS boot loader and operating system in the controller ensure efficient boot times, thereby increasing productivity by minimizing downtime. The addition of a floating-point unit (FPU) enhances performance, particularly for tasks requiring precise mathematical calculations. The Geode SC2200 graphics controller manages graphical requirements, including various GUIs and displays, and is allocated 4 MB of memory from the total main memory.
Additionally, the 5PP120.0571-27 is equipped with an RTC that has +/- 10 ppm accuracy and a backup battery to ensure accurate execution of time-sensitive processes and synchronization with the PC's time. The passive cooling provided by the heat sink contributes to stable thermal conditions, positively affecting the device's longevity. This controller is versatile and can be used in B&R Automation PC, Panel PC, and Desktop PC mounting configurations, making it adaptable to various industrial automation system architectures.
