CX2100-0004 Beckhoff Power Supply Unit

The Beckhoff CX2100 Series Power Supply Units and UPS Modules are used for supplying power to the components (CPU modules, system and extension modules) of a CX20xx system. The power supply modules are controlled via TwinCAT. An FSTN LC display with 2 x 16 characters and a selector switch as well as an enter key allow the querying of internal status values as well as self-created display parameters or menus with and without input options.

EtherCAT or Bus Terminals can be connected on the right-hand side-the respective bus system is detected automatically and operated by the CPU. Power is supplied to the E-bus or K-bus electronics in the I/O terminals by an integrated, but internally separate power supply unit with 2 A at 5 V DC.

The power supply units are in principle passively cooled and have no fans. A choice of four different power supply units is manufactured: - The standard power supply CX2100-0004 (only for CX2020 and CX2030) provides a maximum output of 45 W. - The more powerful CX2100-0014 power supply unit offers a maximum output of 130 W. Thanks to its wider housing front the CX2100-0014 also allows passive ventilation through the front and is thus also suitable for horizontal mounting positions. Optionally, the CX2020 or CX2030 systems can be equipped with active ventilation (fan option) for better heat dissipation, thus enabling operation in different ambient conditions in combination with a CX2100-0014 power supply unit. - In addition to the power supply functionality, the CX2100-0904 module also features an integrated capacitive UPS. In the event of a power failure this enables the system to save data on the storage medium and then shut down in an orderly manner. - The CX2100-0914 module can be used to charge external battery packs in order to provide backup power for the system and external components such as Control Panels.
