Product Description:
The C6240-0000 industrial PC is manufactured by Beckhoff within the C6 Industrial PC Units series. Designed as a 19-inch control computer, it supplies CPU performance, field interface routing, and operating system support to production lines, test stands, and process skids. By consolidating motion control, visualization, and database tasks on a single hardware platform, the unit simplifies panel wiring and setup in industrial automation settings.
The enclosure measures 430 mm in width, 274 mm in depth, and 170 mm in height, giving clear dimensions for cabinet layout, while a mass of 12.3 kg permits rail or shelf mounting without additional bracing. Inside, a backplane provides 7 expansion slots so the system can accept fieldbus masters, GPU cards, or additional storage. External connectivity includes four USB 2.0 ports for removable media, one LAN socket, one parallel LPT1 printer connector, a 15-pin VGA monitor output, and two PS/2 receptacles for keyboard and mouse support. Serial integration with legacy drives or barcode readers is handled by two RS-232 ports, and the five-pin power plug mates with factory cabling that uses a minimum conductor size of 1.5 mm² (16 AWG) to carry DC supply currents safely. Contact spacing inside the supply terminal is 5 mm to maintain creepage distances.
Network traffic is routed through the dedicated 1 x RJ45 interface, while service or diagnostic consoles can remain attached through the 2 x RS-232 ports without occupying expansion slots. The chassis carries an IP20 protection class, indicating finger-safe openings but no sealing against liquids, which makes it suitable for clean control cabinets. Two PS/2 ports allow low-level BIOS access when USB is disabled. The unit’s five-pin power entry simplifies polarity checks, and its contact spacing aligns with standard cage-clamp terminals to reduce assembly errors.
