C6925-1009-0010 by Beckhoff

The C6925-1009-0010 industrial PC is manufactured by Beckhoff and belongs to the C6 Industrial PC Units series. Designed for DIN-rail or cabinet installation, the unit provides centralized control, data processing, and communication functions inside automated machines and production cells. As an embedded controller, it runs real-time operating systems and interfaces directly with EtherCAT I/O, drives, and higher-level supervisory networks. It provides the computing resources needed to execute motion sequences, logic programs, and plant diagnostics.

Thermal management relies on passive cooling, eliminating fans and reducing the number of moving parts that can draw in dust. The housing has an IP20 protection class, so it should be mounted in a clean enclosure when exposure to shock or splashing liquids is possible. Processing electronics are arranged on a 3.5-inch motherboard, a compact format that shortens signal paths and keeps the system depth shallow. Upstream supply lines are safeguarded by a maximum fuse rating of 16 A. Power is delivered through a keyed 8-pole connector that groups the DC input, ground, and control contacts in a single plug.

Network and peripheral connectivity is dense for the size of the chassis. The controller provides two Gigabit Ethernet ports with RJ-45 sockets, allowing separate machine and office networks without additional switches. These interfaces can support EtherCAT or standard TCP/IP communication and accommodate ring topologies or segmented plant networks. Four high-speed ports conform to the USB 2.0 standard for removable data storage, service tools, or camera connections. Visual output is routed through a DVI-I interface, which supports both digital displays and analog monitors. This display connection allows the computer to work with existing visualization equipment while keeping the external cabling straightforward.
