Product Description:
The CX5020-0115 is an embedded PC manufactured by Beckhoff within the CX Embedded PC Systems series. It is designed to run IEC 61131-3 control programs and visualization tasks directly on a DIN rail, allowing the device to function as both a PLC and a compact data server in industrial automation cells. By integrating the CPU, fieldbus interface, and storage in a 100 × 106 × 92 mm housing, the unit streamlines cabinet layouts and places deterministic control processing beside the terminal I/O slices it governs.
An Intel Atom Z530 processor operating at 1.6 GHz executes the real-time kernel, while 512 MB of RAM supplies volatile workspace for logic, motion, and HMI tasks. Application code and boot files reside on a 128 MB Compact Flash module, which is removable for system updates or configuration copying. The system draws power from a 24 V DC supply, and internal conversion limits maximum power loss to 12.5 W to support passive cooling. A dielectric strength of 500 V RMS provides electrical isolation between the primary circuits and the low-voltage logic domain. A 2 A current rail supplies the adjoining Bus Terminals so that connected sensors and actuators receive regulated field power without requiring an external feeder.
For plant networking, two Gigabit controllers support 10/100/1000 Mbit/s communication through two RJ45 ports, enabling redundant ring topologies or segmented LAN access. Four USB 2.0 sockets on the front panel connect service keyboards, flash drives, or barcode scanners, while a DVI-D output supports operator panels with resolutions up to 1920 × 1200 pixels. The aluminum enclosure provides IP20 protection, making the unit suitable for dry control cabinets, while the integrated rail latch supports tool-free module stacking. The compact enclosure also allows the computer to be installed close to its associated terminal modules, reducing the distance between control processing and connected I/O. Its network and peripheral connections support communication with supervisory systems, local displays, and common service devices used in automated machinery.
