Product Description

When it comes to industrial automation, the Beckhoff CPU module CX2040-0155 is the way to go with its high-performance embedded PC. This Embedded PC variant from Beckhoff comes with an Intel Core i7 2715QE CPU which has four cores and runs at 2.1 GHz. Its specialized design makes it ideal for use in manufacturing settings that need consistent, lightning-fast computing. This model is a great choice for automation tasks that need control in real-time since the manufacturing company has included many sophisticated capabilities in it.

Depending on the OS loaded, this CX2040-0155 comes with 20 GB or 40 GB of CFast flash memory and there are possibilities to expand the capacity. Further customization is possible with the addition of an extra interface. While a group of diagnostic LEDs keeps an eye on things like power, TC status, flash access and bus status, the built-in fan with ball bearings makes sure everything stays cool. These diagnostic tools make real time system management simpler by streamlining maintenance and troubleshooting.

Running on a 64 bit OS with long term support and reliability, the embedded PC is operating on Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2016 LTSB. Despite the lack of licensing, it is compatible with the TwinCAT 3 runtime (XAR). An automated recognition system for E-bus or K-bus modules allows it to enable I/O connections. The device has an energy efficient system with a maximum power usage of 32 W and a power source of 24 V DC. Its light weight of around 1300 grams and adaptability to different configurations make it an excellent choice for automated settings.
