New Beckhoff C65xx Industrial PC series uses control cabinets as the housing

Beckhoff enhances 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 push-button configurations and extension options at the front of the console housing.

The Industrial PCs within the C65xx series feature a heat sink 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 IP 67 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 Core™2 Duo 2.16 GHz
