Product Description:

Beckhoff’s CX2100-0040 is a compact power supply unit, designed for use with Embedded PC systems based on the CX series.

Tailored for the power requirements of the industrial control environment, this module provides reliable power to the Embedded PC as well as the daisy-chained I/O terminals. Capable of operating at an input voltage of between 24 V DC (18 to 30 V DC), the CX2100-0040 brings forth a powerful power supply of 10 A, and therefore, it is ideal to supply a challenging control system. One of its major features is that it integrates a 5V output for internal supply to Bus Terminals through K-bus, providing up to 2A, which is critical for uninterrupted communication and control between modules. The power consumption of the unit is also usually quite low when there is no load, only 2.5 W, which confirms its energy-saving design. Its fanless, convection cooling method increases dependability because there is less mechanical friction and no dust buildup, which is critical in confined cabinets for control.

It is easy to mount the unit due to push-in (spring clamp) connection technology, giving the range of wire cross-sections 0.25-2.5 mm². The module can be installed on the DIN rail and has a compact form factor with dimensions 38 mm x 100 mm x 91 mm. Weighing approximately 200 g and with IP20 protection, it is perfectly suited for a space-limited as well as a protected industrial environment. The CX2100-0040 contains a 2-line by 16-character backlit FSTN LCD that indicates real-time operating status, having diagnostic LEDs for power (PWR), I/O operation (I/O Run), & error states (I/O Err). Functioning reliably under 0°C to +55°C, and bearing CE and UL standards, this power supply unit is a reliable part of Beckhoff’s embedded automation platforms.
