Product Description:
The PC model number CX5020-1120 from Beckhoff draws only 11 W of typical power consumption to keep energy costs low. It is classified as CX Embedded PC Systems and measures 124×100×92 mm, making it perfect for slim control cabinet positions. It offers 2 Ethernet ports, 4 USB 2.0 ports, a DVI-D connector and 2 RS232 interfaces, allowing diverse networks and peripheral connections. This hardware device operates within a range of –25 °C … +60 °C which ensures reliable performance in extreme ambient conditions.
Additionally, the component with a ambient storage temperatures of –40 °C … +85 °C protects the module during transport and off-line periods. It runs on a supply voltage of 24 V DC at -15%/+20% which aligns with standard machine power rails. With a mass of approx. 830 gram, it alleviates tension on DIN rails and simplifies rail mounting. The module is protected by the IP20 safety rating, which ensures that it is not exposed to solid contaminants. The model snaps onto DIN rails which accelerates assembly and removal without extra hardware. The industrial PC works with Windows Embedded Standard with TwinCAT 2 or 3 and integrates seamlessly with Beckhoff automation environments.
The embedded computer CX5020-1120 houses an Intel Atom® Z530 CPU at 1.6 GHz speed, thus delivers sufficient processing for PLC and motion-control tasks. It also includes 2 GB DDR2 RAM which buffers large control datasets without lag. This supports a CFast card slot with 2 GB installed and expansion up to 8 GB to further store system images and logs locally. The unit features a single-core processor with hyper-threading that creates two virtual cores. It incorporates a 1-second UPS buffer and protects volatile data on compact flash during power interruptions. The variant balances compact dimensions and robust interfaces for efficient embedded control.
