Product Description:

The Beckhoff CX5230-0185 Embedded PC System runs on an Intel Atom x5-E3930 processor with a 1.3 GHz clock rate that supports 2 cores to accomplish various control tasks.

This model includes 4 GB of DDR4 RAM as internal memory, which provides enough capacity for typical industrial control needs. This platform does not have expandable main memory, but users can add storage through CFast cards and microSD slots that permit data logging and program storage (cards are not included with the system). The built-in 1-second UPS provides data protection by storing 1 MB on the CFast card for protecting critical information in the event of power failures. This device supports connectivity to diverse peripherals through its 2 x RJ45 Ethernet ports combined with 1 x DVI-D display output and 4 x USB 3.1 ports, and 1 optional interface. The passive cooling method in this system design requires no active components, thus, it extends operational time while minimizing maintenance needs for industrial applications. The operating system designated for this system is TwinCAT/BSD, which allows seamless integration with Beckhoff's automation platform through TwinCAT 3 runtime (XAR). Safety measures are integrated through electrical isolation while the system receives a 24 V DC supply within -15% to +20% voltage tolerance range.

The built-in battery-supported clock available on the CX5230-0185 provides reliable time and date maintenance during power interruptions. The compact system fits control panels or industrial spaces because it measures 142 mm x 100 mm x 92 mm. It functions optimally between -25°C and +60°C while built for industrial usage conditions. The IP20 certification on the device enables resistance against both dust and unintentional contact with its internal workings. The system achieves reliable operation under EN 61000-6-2/EN 61000-6-4 standards because it complies with electromagnetic interference standards. The CX5230-0185 requires a maximum power consumption of 34 W when factoring in the UPS to make it a suitable energy-efficient solution for embedded automation systems.
