5PC750.1043-K02
The B & R Automation 5PC750.1043-K02 is a robust industrial panel PC in the 5PC Industrial Automation Units series designed for demanding factory automation and HMI applications. Sporting a bright 10.4 inch TFT color display with 800 x 600 pixels SVGA resolution, this unit delivers clear visualization for control processes and data monitoring. The integrated Intel ATOM processor ensures efficient computation and seamless operation of automation software, while the analog resistive touchscreen provides reliable user input even when wearing protective gloves. Engineered for harsh environments, it features a degree of protection of IP65 front and operates across an ambient range of 0°C to +55°C, safeguarding internal components against dust and splash water. Compact and panel-mounted, the 5PC750.1043-K02 offers a real-time automation interface that unifies display and computing in a single, space-saving enclosure.
Detailed technical specifications define the 5PC750.1043-K02’s industrial-grade credentials. The unit deploys 1 GB DDR2 SDRAM system memory and supports data storage via a CompactFlash slot (with a second slot configurable for hard drive use). It runs on Windows CE, enabling deterministic performance for control tasks and compatibility with B&R’s Automation Studio runtime environment. Input/output connectivity is extensive: 2 x Ethernet ports supporting 10/100 Mbps on standard twisted-pair cabling, 2 x USB ports for peripheral integration, and serial interfaces including 1 x RS232 and 1 x RS422/485 for legacy device communication. Power is supplied by 24 V DC (19–30 V DC), while an internal heatsink maintains optimal thermal dissipation. Rear-side protection meets IP20, completing the comprehensive ensemble of industrial safety features.
Operational performance is enhanced by purposeful design choices. The panel PC includes a replaceable internal battery slot for CMOS data retention and a PS/2 interface for connecting external keyboards or mice, facilitating field service and configuration. The dual Ethernet interfaces allow network segment lengths up to 100 meters, ensuring flexible LAN integration with PLCs, sensors, and SCADA systems. With the built-in analog resistive touchscreen, users achieve precise control over complex machine operations. The combination of low-power Atom processing and efficient heat sink supports continuous 24/7 operation without performance throttling under full load.
System integration is seamless within B&R’s automation ecosystem, leveraging the 5PC750.1043-K02’s compatibility with Automation Studio for synchronized real-time control, safety, motion, and HMI tasks. The panel mounting form factor and standardized 24 V DC power interface simplify retrofits into existing control cabinets and machinery. This unit is ideal for applications in packaging, assembly automation, process control, and machine tooling, where durability, clear visualization, and tight integration with control architectures are paramount.
