CP6221-0002-0000
by Beckhoff
The Beckhoff CP6221-0002-0000 is a member of the CP Panel PC Systems series by Beckhoff, engineered as an all-in-one control panel for industrial automation. This panel PC supports a 24 V DC power supply and features two Ethernet interfaces for direct EtherCAT integration. Powered by Windows 10 IoT Enterprise, it delivers a robust platform for HMI and control tasks, enabling fast data exchange and real-time communication. The system’s primary function is to serve as a customizable control unit, allowing engineers to deploy a scalable solution tailored to diverse machine-level applications.
In terms of hardware, the CP6221-0002-0000 accommodates a range of Intel® processors—Celeron, Core i3, i5, and i7—to match performance requirements. The embedded 3.5-inch motherboard form factor hosts two PCIe module slots and two PCI/PCIe card slots, offering extensive expansion for specialized I/O or communication modules. Storage flexibility is provided through both CFast card and 2.5-inch HDD/SSD interfaces, while optional NOVRAM ensures fail-safe storage of critical data. Thermal management is handled by a speed-controlled fan with dual ball bearings, maintaining consistent airflow and prolonging component life under continuous high-load conditions.
Further enhancing its industrial suitability, the panel PC offers an optional integrated UPS for uninterrupted operation during power disturbances. The 24 V DC input aligns with standard control cabinet supplies, simplifying integration and reducing wiring complexity. Dual EtherCAT ports ensure seamless network topology and redundancy, while Windows 10 IoT Enterprise grants compatibility with modern software ecosystems. This combination of modular expansion, reliable cooling, and fail-safe storage makes the CP6221-0002-0000 an ideal choice for demanding manufacturing environments, delivering high uptime, serviceability, and scalable performance in automated production lines.
