The highly efficient BK1250 acts as a bridge between Beckhoff's original Bus Terminal I/O line and high speed EtherCAT terminals for optimum interoperability.
In every model, the PC connections are located at the front, and two mounting sides provide the user with a variety of flexible installation options.
The removable internal chassis makes for easy maintenance and individual configuration, and the DVI and USB interfaces enable the connection of a control panel.
The C6340 and C6350 build on the existing features in the range.
Each IPC features a five-slot backplane including the three free PCI slots.
The additional slots can be used for further PC fieldbus cards, meaning that these models are ideally suited to systems where several fieldbuses are used in parallel, for example machine construction and plant engineering applications.
Both models also feature a slot motherboard for Intel Celeron or Pentium III processors.
The external dimensions of the C6340 are 134 x 196 x 226mm without a mounting plate.
The C6350, featuring an additional CD-RW drive, is only 14mm wider.
