X20cCS1030
The B & R Automation X20cCS1030 is a robust module in the X20 Fieldbus Input Output Modules series designed to facilitate high‑reliability serial communication in industrial automation. Featuring a 1x RS485/RS422 communication interface with a 1 kB FIFO buffer and a maximum transfer rate of 115.2 kbit/s, this coated interface module ensures dependable data exchange between complex devices. Its primary function is to link controllers and I/O modules over a fieldbus network, enabling seamless integration into automated systems.
Incorporating a 12‑pin X20TB12 terminal block connection and a UART type 16C550 compatible controller, the X20cCS1030 supports up to 32 stations on RS485 and 10 stations on RS422. The module’s IP20 protection rating and multiple status indicators—including data transfer, terminating resistor, operating status, and module status LEDs—provide clear diagnostics and operational feedback. Power consumption is minimized with 0.01 W on the bus and 1.44 W for internal I/O, while the built‑in terminating resistor and coated housing offer enhanced resistance to corrosive environments and condensation, setting it apart in challenging industrial settings.
Certified for a wide temperature range, the X20cCS1030 can be stored between -40 to 85 °C and operated horizontally from -25 to 60 °C or vertically from -25 to 50 °C, ensuring reliable performance across diverse environmental conditions. Compatibility with bus modules such as X20BM11, X20BM15, and X20cBM11 and terminal blocks X20TB06 and X20TB12 simplifies system design. Its compact form factor supports both horizontal and vertical mounting with 12.5 mm module spacing, delivering durability and efficiency. In industrial applications, this module enhances network stability, reduces maintenance, and optimizes communication throughput for maximum productivity.
