Flexible IPC solutions

November 2008 Industrial Computer Hardware

Beckhoff has enhanced its industrial PC range with a new generation of built-in IPCs. With optimum flexibility in mind, the new C65xx series is designed to be installed in control cabinets or in the rear panel of a control or console housing. By integrating the IPC into an existing housing, this solution is extremely compact and, in addition, enables highly flexible pushbutton configurations and extension options at the front of the console housing.

The industrial PCs within the C65xx series feature a heatsink for external cooling that reaches ambient temperatures through a suitable cut-out in the panel of the control cabinet. Integrated seals provide a water- and dust-proof IP67 design.

The new C65xx series offers users maximum flexibility in terms of Control Panel configuration. The IPC can be chosen independent of the number and type of control keys or switches on the control cabinet front. The C65xx series’ compact, slimline housing with integrated IPC connections at the rear enables a flexible number of buttons in the cabinet front panel, depending on the application.

In combination with TwinCAT automation software, the C65xx offers a powerful PLC and motion control system.

Equipped with a 3½-inch Beckhoff Motherboard, the C65xx Industrial PC series is available with four types of processors:

* C65xx-0000 - Intel Celeron M 1,5 GHz or Pentium M 1,8 GHz.

* C65xx-0010 – Intel Core Duo 2,0 GHz or Core2 Duo 2,16 GHz.
