Product Description:
The CX1030-0013 is an embedded PC module produced by Beckhoff for the CX Embedded PC Systems series. It combines PLC duties and standard IT functions in a single DIN-rail package, giving machine builders a compact controller for conveyor lines, building services, and material-handling cells. By uniting the processor, memory, and fieldbus interfaces in one housing, the unit can execute deterministic control software onboard instead of splitting tasks between a separate PC and a hardware PLC. This integrated arrangement also reduces the number of individual devices required within the control cabinet while preserving access to standard computing functions.
Its processing core is an Intel Pentium M running at 1.8 GHz, providing suitable performance for submillisecond cycles under TwinCAT NCI Runtime. The controller carries 256 MB DDR-RAM for logic, HMI tasks, and data buffering. A 64 MB Compact Flash module holds the operating system and retains stored data after power loss. Two RJ45 connectors provide separate network connections or programming access, while a Type I/II Compact Flash slot allows logging cards to be exchanged without dismounting the unit. Onboard devices share a 16-bit ISA (PC104) bus that supports internal communication. Because the module does not include DVI or USB sockets, visualization and peripheral access must be provided through compatible network connections or attached system modules.
The housing measures 112 mm in height, 96 mm in width, and 99 mm in depth, so it fits beside standard I/O terminals without increasing cabinet depth. Continuous heat generation is limited to 11 W, allowing most installations to rely on natural convection when the required clearances and airflow are maintained. The housing has an IP20 rating, which protects against contact with hazardous internal parts but does not provide protection from water. Field wiring reaches the controller through the two Ethernet jacks, while the opposite side carries the power terminals and Compact Flash eject mechanism. The compact dimensions support installation in space-constrained automation cabinets, and the low heat output helps reduce the need for dedicated forced-air cooling around the module.
