CX2030-0123 | BECKHOFF | Module CPU

Description

Designed for complex high-performance automation tasks, the Beckhoff CX2030-0123 CPU module serves as the central processing unit within the CX2000 Embedded PC series. This industrial controller integrates a dual-core Intel Core i7 processor and comprehensive connectivity, enabling execution of demanding PLC, motion control, and high-speed visualization applications in heavy industrial environments.

The module communicates seamlessly with standard I/O systems through its connection to a power supply module, featuring automatic recognition of E-bus (EtherCAT) and K-bus (Bus Terminals) architectures. Its passive cooling configuration reduces moving parts, enhancing overall system reliability and minimizing downtime in environments susceptible to dust or vibration.

Features

• Dual-core Intel Core i7 2610UE processor running at 1.5 GHz for highly parallel control tasks.
• Equipped with 2 GB DDR3 RAM (expandable ex factory to 4 GB) and 128 kB of integrated, non-volatile NOVRAM for persistent data retention.
• High-speed storage interfaces supporting 20 GB or 40 GB CFast flash cards depending on the installed operating system.
• Dual independent RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet ports for robust communication networking.
• Versatile physical interface suite including 4 USB 2.0 ports and a DVI-I display output.
• Flexible I/O backplane interfacing with automatic selection between EtherCAT (E-bus) and standard Bus Terminals (K-bus).

Applications

• Advanced manufacturing systems and high-precision CNC machining.
• Power generation and distribution monitoring.
• Large-scale water and wastewater treatment control.
• Complex packaging machinery and automated material handling.
