Product Description:
The famous producer Beckhoff with its latest CX2043-0185 module features Intel® Atom™ CPU which is a 1.91 GHz dual core that accelerates parallel processing in real time automation. This component number represents the CX Embedded PC Systems product line which is perfect for industrial automation solutions. It provides in one unit Computing and I/O hardware so that the cabinet can be efficiently used as an embedded PC. This variant is available in the market with 2 GB DDR3L RAM that enables smooth multitasking even when under constant control loads.
The computing module can read and write to a CFast card up to 16 GB with expansive on-board data logging in absence of external drives. It connects over 2 × 1 Gbit/s Ethernet ports which deliver high-speed network throughput. It also provides 4 × USB 2.0 ports to accommodate multiple peripheral attachments at once. Moreover, it outputs graphics via one DVI-D interface, supporting clear operator panel displays. It switches one serial port between RS232, RS422, or RS485 protocols which adapts to varied industrial sensor networks. The device accepts fieldbus options through extension modules which tailor bus compatibility per project. It runs Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard 7 P or Windows 10 IoT to work and aligns with familiar automation environments.
This system PC draws power from 24 V DC ±20 % which aligns with standard machine supply rails. It represents 132 mm × 100 mm × 92 mm measurement to fit into the narrow DIN-rail control racks. The unit operates between –25 °C and +60 °C and maintains reliability in extreme ambient climates. It mounts on DIN rail for a streamline integration into standard control cabinets. It works with a maximum power consumption of 42 W that accommodates peak CPU and I/O demands without overload. It offers 500 V dielectric strength between supply and internal electronics which ensures safe isolation under fault conditions.
