  1. Product Introduction & Supply Chain Strategy

This product is a Brand New Surplus unit. It is not used, not pulled from a decommissioned plant, and not refurbished. All modules undergo rigorous quality verification to ensure OEM-level reliability. The B&R Automation 5PC910.SX01-00 Automation PC 910 System Unit provides the primary industrial housing, power delivery bus, and backplane interface for Core i-series APC910 computing engines deployed across complex production lines and automated packaging systems.

From an inventory and supply chain management standpoint, keeping a factory-sealed 5PC910.SX01-00 system unit as emergency buffer stock eliminates extended lead times when an existing IPC housing suffers power circuit degradation, backplane socket failure, or mechanical damage. Re-using refurbished or pulled IPC housings carries severe operational risks: thermal stress on internal power conditioning components and worn backplane bus connectors frequently lead to random system reboots and loss of production data. Securing New Surplus inventory guarantees original power regulation stability and an extended 10–15 year operational lifespan at a fraction of factory backorder costs.

  1. Installation & Configuration Guide

1.Pre-Installation (Prep & Safety):Prerequisite & Safety.

  1. Shut down the Industrial PC operating system gracefully and disconnect main 24 V DC power using Lock-Out/Tag-Out (LOTO) procedures.
  2. Wear a grounded ESD wrist strap prior to unpacking the replacement housing.
  3. Document and mark all external cabling, mass storage media, and interface option cards connected to the existing unit.

2.Removal:Hardware Extraction.

  1. Remove power plugs, network cables, and display connectors from the front and top I/O panels.
  2. Extract installed CFast cards or 2.5-inch drives from their respective drive bays.
  3. Loosen the housing retaining screws and remove the defective system unit from the cabinet DIN rail or mounting plate.

3.Installation (Clone & Seat):Hardware Transfer.

  1. Transfer the existing CPU board, RAM modules, and option interface cards into the new 5PC910.SX01-00 housing using ESD-safe procedures.
  2. Re-insert CFast/SSD storage media into the correct drive slots.
  3. Mount the 5PC910.SX01-00 unit securely onto the cabinet wall or mounting plate, ensuring clear airflow around the cooling fins.

4.Power-On & Testing:System Verification.

  1. Reconnect the 24 V DC power supply plug, verifying correct polarity (+24 V and GND).
  2. Restore power and monitor the boot phase via an attached Automation Panel or display.
  3. Verify that diagnostic LEDs (Power, Run, Error) show normal operating status and confirm OS startup in B&R Automation Runtime or Windows Embedded.
  1. Firmware/Software Versions & Upgrade Notes
  • CPU Board Support: Compatible with B&R APC910 mainboards (e.g., 5C9001 series CPU boards featuring Intel Core i3/i5/i7 processors).
  • BIOS & Runtime Settings: System BIOS settings reside on the removable CPU board/CMOS. Transferring your existing processor board maintains legacy system clock settings and boot drive orders.
  • Compatibility Warning: Ensure that power supply ratings on the 24 V DC line accommodate all installed expansion cards (PCI/PCIe) to prevent voltage sags during peak processing loads.
  1. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why buy New Surplus instead of a cheaper refurbished Industrial PC housing?

Refurbished IPC housings frequently suffer from degraded internal power supply capacitors and weakened connector contacts caused by years of thermal cycling inside cabinet enclosures. A failing power bus can cause random system crashes or corrupt critical motion control databases. Our New Surplus units guarantee factory-fresh internal power distribution and 100% mechanical integrity.

Does the 5PC910.SX01-00 include the CPU board and RAM?

No. The 5PC910. is the base system unit (housing, backplane, and internal power bus). CPU modules, memory sticks, drive media, and option boards are selected separately or transferred from your existing machine.

Can this system unit be mounted vertically?

Yes. The APC910 housing supports both book-mounting (vertical) and wall-mounting (horizontal) orientations, provided recommended cooling clearances (minimum 50 mm top and bottom) are maintained.

How is the module packaged to prevent damage during transit?

Units are sealed in heavy-duty ESD shielding bags with desiccants and packed in custom-cut, shock-absorbing foam within a reinforced corrugated box.

What warranty coverage is included with this unit?

This New Surplus 5PC910. includes a full 1-year functional replacement warranty backed by complete physical and electrical static testing prior to shipment.
