Product Description:
B&R Automation's 5PC600.5X05-00 is an industrial PC unit in the 5PC Industrial Automation Units series. It is intended to host control software and field communication tasks inside a machine cabinet. The hardware consolidates process coordination, network routing, and data logging for automated cells, acting as the computational heart that links operator interfaces, drives, and higher-level supervisory systems.
It receives 24 VDC through a pluggable terminal and draws up to 5 A, a range compatible with standard switch-mode power supplies common in control panels. For serial devices such as barcode readers, it provides two RS-232 ports, and the controller supports a peak rate of 115 kbit/s, which is adequate for parameter downloads and diagnostics. Ethernet connectivity is handled by two shielded RJ45 jacks that auto-negotiate at 10/100 Mbit/s, allowing separation of machine and plant networks or redundant cabling. A single Automation Panel Link slot carries proprietary signals to a remote touchscreen, while the DVI-I interface drives external monitors for visualization. Two slide-in drive bays facilitate hot-swappable storage, and one Type I CompactFlash slot is available for system images or recipe data. Two USB 2.0 Type A connectors each supply 500 mA to peripherals such as scanners or Wi-Fi dongles.
Internally, a 33 MHz PCI backplane supports expansion with up to five 32-bit half-size cards, so motion controllers or additional fieldbus masters can be added without external racks. Mechanical dimensions of the enclosure are 270 × 253 mm, permitting front-door mounting in shallow cabinets. Passive vents and a fanless layout align with the IP20 rating, indicating protection against solid objects larger than 12 mm while relying on the cabinet for environmental sealing. The compact footprint leaves clearance for cable routing behind the unit and keeps airflow unobstructed around neighboring components.
