5PC910.SX01-00 Industrial PC System Unit 1 Expansion Slot Dual LAN

The 5PC910.SX01-00 is a modular one-slot industrial PC system unit designed as the mechanical and interface foundation for a configurable machine-control computer.

This material number identifies the system unit rather than a complete operational PC. The CPU board, memory, bus unit, heat sink and storage device must be selected separately according to the required processing performance and expansion interface.

The system unit supports one PCI or PCI Express expansion slot through the corresponding bus unit. It also provides two Gigabit Ethernet ports, five USB connections, one RS232 interface, one CFast slot, one compact SATA III drive slot and multiple display connection options.

Its one-slot design is particularly suitable for industrial control cabinets requiring a compact computer with one dedicated expansion card, dual Ethernet networking and flexible CPU configuration.

System Unit Versus Complete Industrial PC

The unit should not be described as a complete industrial computer unless the CPU board, memory, storage, bus unit, cooling components and operating system are all included in the supplied configuration.

Expansion Slot Configuration

The system unit has space for one expansion bus unit. The selected bus unit determines the available slot type:

• 5AC901.BX01-00 provides one PCI slot
• 5AC901.BX01-01 provides one PCI Express x8 slot

The bus unit is a required configuration component and should be verified before purchasing a replacement system unit.

This one-slot design is suitable for machines that require a dedicated communication, image-processing, data-acquisition or fieldbus card without the size of a multi-slot industrial computer.

CPU and Memory Configuration

Processor and memory specifications are not defined by the 5PC910.SX01-00 material number. They depend on the separately installed CPU board.

Compatible system configurations can use selected Celeron, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7 or Xeon CPU boards. The memory type and maximum capacity depend on the CPU board generation.

The exact CPU board, memory module and heat sink must be checked when replacing an existing unit. A matching system housing alone does not guarantee software or hardware compatibility.

Integrated Interfaces

Ethernet

Two shielded RJ45 interfaces support 10, 100 and 1000 Mbit/s Ethernet communication. They can be used for machine networking, controller communication, production data transfer or service access.

USB

The system unit provides four USB 3.0 connections on the top and one USB 2.0 connection behind the front cover.

Serial Communication

One 9-pin RS232 interface supports a maximum baud rate of 115 kbit/s. It can connect compatible serial service devices, barcode readers or legacy industrial equipment.

Display Connections

The system includes a DVI-I interface for SDL, DVI or monitor connections together with one DisplayPort. Actual graphics performance and DisplayPort capability depend on the selected CPU board.

Storage

One SATA III CFast slot and one compact SATA III drive slot are provided. The storage device and capacity are selected separately.

Cooling Configuration

The system unit supports passive cooling through a compatible heat sink. An active fan kit can be added when required by the selected processor and operating conditions.

Cooling requirements depend on the CPU board, installed expansion card, cabinet temperature and mounting arrangement. A higher-performance processor may require active cooling.

The system should not be operated without the heat sink specified for the installed CPU board.

Typical Applications

• Industrial machine control
• Packaging equipment
• Production data acquisition
• Machine vision processing
• HMI server applications
• Test and measurement systems
• Printing machinery
• Material handling equipment
• Assembly automation
• Factory network gateways
• Process monitoring
• Industrial computer replacement projects

Installation and Selection Notes

The system unit requires a regulated 24 V DC SELV power supply. The maximum rated current is 5.5 A, but actual consumption depends on the CPU board, memory, storage device and expansion card.

Because the enclosure is rated IP20, install it inside a suitable industrial control cabinet. Protection against moisture, conductive dust and accidental contact must be provided by the cabinet.

The operating temperature is component-dependent. Check the limits of the installed CPU board, memory, storage device, bus unit and expansion card before determining the allowable cabinet temperature.

Confirm the required bus unit before installation. The PCI and PCI Express bus units are different components and cannot be selected based only on the system-unit model.

When replacing an existing computer, record the CPU board, RAM, CFast card, compact drive, interface modules, bus unit, expansion card and software license before removing the original unit.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is 5PC910.SX01-00 a complete industrial PC?

No. It is a modular system unit. A CPU board, memory, bus unit, heat sink and storage device must be added to create a complete industrial PC.

2. Does the system unit include a processor?

No. Processor performance depends on the separately selected CPU board.

3. Is system memory included?

Memory is selected separately and must be compatible with the installed CPU board.

4. How many expansion slots are available?

The system unit supports one PCI or one PCI Express expansion slot, depending on the bus unit installed.

5. Does it include the PCI or PCIe bus unit?

The bus unit is a separate required configuration component. Its material number should be confirmed before purchase.
