Product Description:

The CX5020-1121 from Beckhoff’s CX Embedded PC Systems series integrates an Intel Atom® Z530 processor at 1.6 GHz and 1 GB of DDR2 RAM, delivering efficient multitasking and ample memory for complex control tasks. The system includes a 128 MB CompactFlash card, expandable for additional storage, and runs Windows Embedded Standard 2009 to provide a stable automation platform. Two 10/100/1000 BASE-T Ethernet ports facilitate high-speed network communications, while four USB 2.0 interfaces support a variety of peripherals.

A DVI-I port with up to 1920 × 1200 resolution enables clear video output for monitoring. Serial connectivity comprises one RS-232 port and one multiport configurable for RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485, broadening communication options. The computer’s extension compatibility with CX2100-0xxx power supplies and CX1100 series I/O modules guarantees scalable integration. This computing device accepts a 24 V DC supply (20.4…28.8 V DC) and consumes approximately 9 W without I/O or extensions and thus offers energy-efficient operation. Rated for −25 °C to +60 °C, The PC withstands harsh industrial environments. Its compact footprint (106 × 100 × 92 mm) and 575 g weight simplify mounting in control cabinets. CE, UL, ATEX, and EAC global certifications confirm international compliance.

An integrated one-second UPS using the CompactFlash card safeguards data during brief power interruptions. With a passive cooling mechanism, this embedded system limits moving parts and reduces maintenance. Diagnostic LEDs for power, TC status, flash access, and bus status allow quick system checks while an internal battery-backed clock maintains accurate timekeeping. Compliance with EN 60068-2-6 (vibration) and EN 60068-2-27 (shock) standards, it allows resilience under mechanical stress. The IP20 protection rating suits controlled-environment installations. With an automatic recognition of E-bus and K-bus I/O connections, the hardware further enhances flexibility in CX5020-1121 design.
