Product Description:
The CX5230-0195 is an embedded PC produced by Beckhoff in the CX Embedded PC Systems series. Installed on a DIN rail, it serves as the central controller for PLC logic, motion control, and visualization tasks inside industrial machines and process cells. Its compact format allows the unit to fit directly into cabinet-based automation layouts without requiring a separate industrial computer enclosure.
At its core sits an Intel Atom x5-E3930, 1.3 GHz processor that works with two physical CPU cores to execute deterministic control cycles under the TwinCAT 3 runtime (XAR). The PC carries 4 GB DDR4 RAM for user programs and buffers, while removable CFast and microSD slots accommodate application or log storage. This dual media arrangement lets the operating system reside on a service-friendly card while process data remain on a separate module. Network communication is handled by 2 × RJ45 10/100/1000 Mbit/s interfaces that can be configured for EtherCAT or standard Ethernet topologies, and the gigabit bandwidth supports distributed-clock synchronization across remote I/O terminals. Graphics output is delivered through Intel HD Graphics 500 and a single DVI-D port, allowing direct HMI connection so no external GPU is needed. During typical PLC workloads the unit draws only 16 W, which helps keep panel heat buildup minimal.
The design is powered from a 24 V DC control supply and includes an integrated UPS that stores 1 MB of data for up to 1 second so nonvolatile variables survive an outage; when the UPS is active, consumption can rise to 34 W. For cabinet installation, the aluminum housing measures 141.5 × 100 × 92 mm and carries a protection rating of IP20, which supports finger-safe operation inside control enclosures. Security features are anchored by a fTPM 2.0 module that can hold certificates or encryption keys for secure boot and network authentication. This hardware-anchored trust supports secure updates and helps prevent unauthorized configuration changes.
