Product Description:
The CX5020-0111-N030 is an embedded PC controller manufactured by Beckhoff and belongs to the CX Embedded PC Systems series. It is intended for industrial automation tasks where a compact controller must execute logic, motion, and HMI code directly beside the I/O terminal bus. By combining processor, memory, communication, and runtime software in one housing, it simplifies control cabinet layouts and reduces network latency between the PLC and field devices.
The heart of the unit is an Intel Atom Z530 processor clocked at 1.6 GHz. A main memory of 512 MB RAM holds the real-time operating system, user program, and buffer data during execution, while nonvolatile storage is provided by a 128 MB CompactFlash card for program and data retention after power loss. Network connectivity is handled by 2 x RJ45 10/100/1000 Mbit/s interfaces, allowing separation of control and plant networks or redundant cabling. Windows Embedded CE 6.0 runs together with the TwinCAT 2 PLC runtime to support deterministic task scheduling, and the E-bus backplane lets the CPU exchange process images with Beckhoff terminal modules. A 9-pin RS232 port permits serial device connection, the DVI-D output connects an operator panel, and the maximum serial baud rate of 115 kbit/s supports legacy devices.
Control peripherals attach through 4 x USB 2.0 sockets for service keys, data logging drives, or external adapters. The controller draws power from a stabilized 24 V DC supply and requires no more than 13 W under full load, which helps limit cabinet heat buildup. With a protection level of IP20, the housing is suited for installation in closed electrical enclosures where conductive dust and moisture are excluded. Physical dimensions of 106 mm x 100 mm x 92 mm let the module fit beside standard I/O terminals, and the form factor leaves space for passive airflow inside a cabinet.
