1 System features
B&R has added the new Power Panel C-Series to its Power Panel family. The Power Panel C70 achieves cycle
times as fast as 1 ms. In addition to POWERLINK, Ethernet, USB and X2X Link connections, the devices are also
available with an option board, providing CAN, RS232 and RS485 interfaces.

1.1 Compact solution
Power Panels have an extremely compact design, minimal installation depth and an intelligent cable outlet arrange-
ment, making them easy-to-mount space savers. And because they have no hard disks, fans or batteries, they
are also maintenance-free. The panel front provides IP65 protection, which makes these devices extremely well-
suited for harsh industrial environments.
1.2 Simple programming
Full integration of the HMI application in the Automation Studio automation software goes without saying. The same
is true for programming in all of the IEC languages offered by B&R as well as Automation Basic and ANSI C.
