Beckhoff has extended its series of 19-inch slide-in industrial PCs with a one height unit that satisfies the growing demand for control devices with a flat design. The C5210 has an Intel Celeron processor 1,9 GHz, two cores, and is equipped with an on-board RAID controller and two hard drive removable frames. Functionality can be extended with PCIe modules, a Mini PCI card or a DVD drive.
The C5210 IPC represents a space-saving control alternative without losses to performance or function. With its compact dimensions, the 19-inch slide-in housing is suitable for areas where installation space is tight such as in building services, control rooms and laboratories.
