Product Description:

The 5COSD4.1001-00 is a compact PC controller from B&R Automation's 5C4 PC Controllers series. It serves as a DIN-rail control platform for decentralized machines that need onboard operating system support, fieldbus communication, and visualization capability. In automated equipment, it coordinates sensors, drives, and higher-level PLCs while conserving cabinet space.

A supply of 24 VDC at up to 0.5 A suits low-power cabinets and modest thermal budgets. Integrated galvanic isolation helps separate internal logic from electrically noisy plant wiring, which supports communication in mixed-device panels. The IP20 enclosure rating is intended for use inside protected cabinets where accidental contact must be limited.

Compact dimensions also help with dense layouts. A width of 49 mm, depth of 80 mm, and height of 100 mm allow close placement beside I/O slices and drive hardware. For visualization, a DVI-I output supports connection to digital or analog monitors, and the service interface follows the USB 2.0 standard through a Type B connector for loading programs.

Three SDL4 out ports on shielded female RJ45 connections support linked communication with compatible B&R panel devices, and the aluminum housing helps dissipate heat during continuous operation. This construction keeps the controller practical for small machine stations that need dependable computing and external display access without a large enclosure footprint.
