Product Description:

The C6330-0030 is an industrial PC produced by Beckhoff for the C6 Industrial PC Units series. Intended as a compact control node in automated plants, the system hosts the application software that coordinates motion, sequence logic, and user interfaces. By integrating standard PC hardware with fieldbus connectivity, the unit replaces separate PLCs and operator terminals, reducing cabinet space and wiring complexity in production lines, packaging machines, and material-handling cells.

Its housing extends 226 mm from front to back, while the height of 196 mm and width of 107 mm let it fit between densely packed DIN rails. Network connectivity is handled through two Ethernet sockets on 2 x RJ45 jacks. Compliance with the 10/100 Base-T standard allows deterministic real-time traffic at 100 Mbit/s for EtherCAT or TCP/IP segments. The motherboard exposes 3 PCI slots so motion, fieldbus, or image-processing cards can be added without exceeding the thermal envelope. One RS-232 port supports legacy serial devices, and the internal 2.5-inch drive bay accepts rotating or solid-state media for operating system storage. A slim-line CD-ROM in the front bezel offers removable installation media or data archiving functions.

Three front-panel USB receptacles conform to the USB 2.0 standard, providing a convenient connection for external storage devices and data transfer. Visual output is provided through a DVI-I interface, so digital flat-panel screens or analog VGA monitors can be driven with a single adapter. The controller draws power through an 8-pole plug at 24 VDC, and its steel enclosure carries an IP20 protection rating suitable for dry, filtered control cabinets. Even with the optical drive and expansion cards installed, overall mass is only 4.6 kg, keeping the load on mounting brackets low during vibration.
