Compact and robust, the Beckhoff CX8090 Embedded PC combines an ARM9-based controller with an integrated 2-port Ethernet switch to deliver reliable PLC performance in space-constrained panels. Designed for machine control, building automation and distributed I/O, it runs TwinCAT 2 PLC with IEC 61131-3 support and offers web visualization for fast commissioning and remote access.

With fanless, passive cooling and a 24 V DC supply, the CX8090 is engineered for continuous operation on the factory floor. It provides 1x 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet and a switched 2-port RJ45 bus for flexible daisy-chain topologies, plus a USB device port and automatic E-bus/K-bus I/O recognition. The system features an internal battery-backed real-time clock, an integrated 1-second UPS, and microSD storage (512 MB included, expandable), all running on Windows Embedded CE 6 within an IP20 housing compliant with EN 61000-6-2/-4 EMC standards and validated for 0 to 55 °C.

Ideal for OEMs and system integrators seeking scalable control with low power consumption (max. 3 W), the CX8090 streamlines cabinet design while meeting CE, UL and hazardous-area requirements (ATEX/IECEx Zone 2; cFMus Class I, Div. 2). Delivered with Beckhoff quality, it supports long-term reliability in industrial automation projects and, for added assurance, is backed by a 1-year warranty.
