Product Description:

The CX5130-0170 is an embedded PC manufactured by Beckhoff within the CX Embedded PC Systems series. Designed as a DIN-rail controller, the unit hosts user programs, handles fieldbus communication, and executes motion or HMI tasks inside an industrial cabinet. By combining CPU, GPU, I/O interface, and DC power conditioning in one compact card cage, it replaces traditional PLC racks while keeping compatibility with EtherCAT terminals and other Beckhoff expansion modules. This arrangement reduces the number of separate cabinet components while preserving modular I/O expansion.

At its core, the system runs on an Intel Atom E3827 processor with 2 physical cores clocked at 1.75 GHz. This dual-core device uses 4 GB DDR3 RAM as main memory, storing the real-time operating system, TwinCAT project files, and user data. The integrated HD graphics engine idles at 542 MHz and uses 256 MB of shared memory, which is suitable for local visualization over the DVI interface rather than graphics-intensive workloads. Four USB 2.0 sockets supply 500 mA each for service tools, barcode readers, or flash storage, and two Gigabit Ethernet controllers support network communication, remote access, and connection to attached automation devices.

The computer accepts 24 V DC control voltage and limits consumption to 14 W during typical load, helping reduce heat buildup in the cabinet. For insulation testing, the circuitry withstands 500 V of dielectric strength between supply and housing, and communication wiring is handled through 2 x RJ45, 10/100/1000 Mbit/s connectors on the front. Housing dimensions of 142 × 100 × 92 mm allow direct mounting next to terminal blocks, while an enclosure rating of IP20 indicates touch-safe but unsealed electronics that must be installed in a cabinet. Front-mounted connections help keep cable routing accessible in dense panels. Graphics can burst up to 792 MHz when rendering complex dashboards, and the device ships without TwinCAT software.
