Product Description:
The CX2040-0111 is an embedded PC manufactured by Beckhoff and belongs to the CX Embedded PC Systems series. This fanless controller combines an Intel Core i7-2715QE processor with industrial I/O terminals to run PLC, motion, and visualization tasks in one compact unit. Measuring 144 x 99 x 91 mm, it is intended for DIN-rail mounting inside control cabinets, and the front panel offers a DVI-I port for direct connection to an operator display. These features let the device coordinate machines and process lines.
At the operating-system level, the unit ships with the TwinCAT 2 PLC Runtime, allowing deterministic IEC 61131-3 task execution without additional licenses. The Intel CPU runs at 2.1 GHz, and its 4 CPU cores provide enough parallel computing headroom for soft-PLC, HMI, and gateway workloads. Application code and real-time variables reside in 4 GB DDR3-RAM, while the integrated graphics controller uses 128 MB of shared memory for display output. For buffered data retention during power loss, the system integrates 128 kB of NOVRAM. Energy demand remains modest; the controller draws from a 24 V DC rail and its maximum consumption is limited to 32 W, so it can share low-current control cabinet supplies with other devices.
Field and diagnostic interfaces complete the platform’s communication profile. Two independent Ethernet controllers are exposed through 2 x RJ45 sockets, supporting routed cell networks as well as EtherCAT in master mode. Local peripherals such as service keyboards, scanners, or memory sticks can be attached to the front panel by means of 4 x USB 2.0 connectors. Electrical isolation between the supply and internal circuitry is verified up to a dielectric strength of 500 V. The housing falls under the IP 20 protection class, making it suitable for closed cabinets where airflow is controlled.
