Product Description:

The 5APC2100.BY48-000 E is an industrial PC unit manufactured by B&R Automation and assigned to the 5APC Industrial PC Units series. Designed for cabinet installation with a 24-volt DC supply, the device provides deterministic computing power for PLC, HMI, and motion sequences in automated lines. Its fanless architecture and compact housing allow placement close to sensors and drives, minimizing latency between field events and control algorithms.

Its processing section is built around an Intel Atom E3845 with 4 physical cores that execute parallel tasks such as protocol handling and soft PLC cycles without context-switching delays. A base frequency of 1910 MHz provides a consistent operating clock rate for real-time processing. System memory is provisioned with 8 GB of DDR3L-1333, allowing large buffer pools for recipe data and local historian archives. Network communication uses two RJ45 ports that operate at 1 Gbit/s, so the controller can stream image data or OPC UA traffic without saturating the bus. Power is taken from a stabilized 24 VDC source; therefore, the unit can share the same supply rail as sensors and actuators, simplifying panel wiring and uninterruptible power supply coverage.

Control integrity is preserved during supply dips by an internal energy store that maintains logic states for 10 ms, ensuring uninterrupted PLC execution while upstream relays transfer to backup power. The housing measures 40 × 115 × 198 mm, so it occupies limited cabinet space alongside standard terminal blocks. An IP20 protection rating provides protection against contact with hazardous internal parts while relying on the surrounding enclosure for additional sealing. Mass is kept to 1170 g, allowing toolless snap fastening without additional support brackets. Storage is provided through one SATA II CFast slot. External peripherals can be attached through one USB 3.0 port and one USB 2.0 port, providing connections for data storage devices, Wi-Fi adapters, or license dongles without exceeding the 3 A maximum input current.
