Product Description:
The CX5230-0175 is an embedded PC module produced by Beckhoff within the CX Embedded PC Systems series. Serving as a DIN-rail-mountable control computer, it combines PLC, motion, and visualization tasks for decentralized machine cells. By integrating fieldbus interfaces directly on its housing, the device can replace separate controllers and gateways in compact automation cabinets. This arrangement helps keep wiring short and allows the control platform to sit close to local I/O and network connections.
At its core, the unit runs on an Intel Atom x5-E3930 processor. The dual-core architecture delivers 1.3 GHz per core, and the processor has 2 CPU cores for parallel handling of control and interface tasks. System memory is provided by 4 GB DDR4 RAM, which stores user programs, process values, and runtime data during operation. The unit comes with TwinCAT 3 Runtime (XAR), allowing IEC 61131-3 PLC functions and motion control features to start without adding a separate control runtime. Cooling is handled by a passive heat sink, so the module operates without internal fans. Four USB ports support peripheral devices and service access, while the CFast slot and microSD bay provide removable storage for application files, backups, and log data.
The power input accepts 24 V DC, and the hardware draws up to 16 W from that supply during operation. Two RJ45 ports support Gigabit Ethernet, allowing the controller to exchange data with automation networks, remote devices, or directly connected equipment. Local I/O can be attached through an E-bus or K-bus connection on the same carrier, which keeps the control and terminal structure compact. The housing is rated IP20 and measures 142 mm × 100 mm × 92 mm, making it suitable for installation in shallow control enclosures. The available terminal power also supports attached E-bus or K-bus modules, so the unit can serve as the main control node for a distributed machine section without requiring a separate head station.
