CP72xx | Economy Panel PC with mounting arm

Wide range of input options

The PC can be equipped with a 12-, 15- or 19-inch LC display as a monitor without keys or with different types of keyboards. Optionally, a touch screen or touch pad is available. In addition, a large number of push-button extensions are available.

Industrial design

Cooling is achieved via cooling ribs between the Control Panel and the add-on PC. Two fans inside the closed housing ensure that the heat is distributed evenly. The PC can be operated at up to 45°C ambient temperature.

The housing is designed for installation on a mounting arm. There is a choice of attaching the mounting arm from above or below ex factory. The Panel PC features an integrated rotatable mounting arm adapter for a 48 mm diameter mounting arm tube. Optionally, a rotatable and tiltable mounting arm adapter can be integrated in the Panel PC. The connecting cables are laid through the mounting arm.

Scalable performance

The compact aluminum housing of the CP72xx Panel PCs is equipped with a 3½-inch Beckhoff Motherboard for Intel® Core™ i3/i5/i7 processors of the latest generation.

The Industrial PC connections (up to six) with IP65 connectors are positioned in the large wiring space and are easily accessible.

Accessibility of the components

The wiring area can be opened easily without dismounting the device from the mounting arm, offering fast access to the IP65 connectors for power supply, Ethernet and optional USB. Prefabricated cables in various lengths are available for all connections.

Central EtherCAT control

Due to its two independent Ethernet interfaces the CP72xx is ideally suited as a compact central processing unit for an EtherCAT control system.

Highest data availability and data security

The CP72xx series Panel PCs are supplied with a 24 V power supply unit, optionally with integrated uninterruptible power supply (UPS). A battery pack can be connected externally and installed on a DIN rail in the control cabinet.

One or two CFast cards or up to two hard disks or SSDs, as well as the lithium battery for the system clock, are accessible from the rear side underneath a cover. Two hard disks, two SSDs or two CFast cards can be mirrored using the on-board SATA RAID 1 controller.
