Product Description:

The CP7802-1067-1110 is a panel-mount PC produced by Beckhoff and belongs to the CP Panel PC Systems series. In an automation line, it serves as the local human-machine interface and hosts TwinCAT runtime so that motion control, logic processing, and data logging can occur at the machine frame instead of in a remote cabinet. The sealed design allows the computer to operate in washdown areas where airborne moisture, oil mist, or dust would otherwise require conventional IT hardware to be placed inside an enclosure. Mounting the PC at the operator station also shortens signal paths between the display, controls, and machine functions, which can simplify overall system layout.

The housing carries an IP65 ingress rating, allowing exposure to dust and low-pressure water jets in washdown areas. Continuous operation is supported up to 55 °C, and the electronics remain functional while ambient humidity climbs to 95%. Power is supplied from 24 V control circuits; the unit starts at 20.4 VDC, runs nominally at 24 VDC, and tolerates line peaks to 28.8 VDC without shutdown. These limits help the PC ride through drops and spikes common on DC buses shared with relays and solenoids. A conformally coated board set and a fan-free thermal path reduce the number of moving parts and support operation in contaminated plant-floor conditions.

Process video travels through a DVI-D interface terminated on a 19-pole M16 bulkhead, while utility power enters on a 4-pole M12 plug that locks against vibration. For USB devices or barcode scanners, a 5-pole M9 receptacle exposes USB 1.1 signaling at up to 12 Mbps. The assembly withstands shocks of 5 G for 30 ms and endures random vibration at 0.5 G with a 0.035 mm amplitude, helping prevent unintended reboots on stamping presses or mobile platforms. This connector layout suits panel-mounted control stations that combine local visualization with distributed machine control in equipment exposed to regular cleaning and vibration.
