Description

B&R 5P81 Industrial Computer

1. Product Overview

The B&R 5P81 is a rugged, high-performance industrial computer designed for automation and machine control applications. Built for reliability in harsh environments, this compact unit integrates a touchscreen interface, advanced processing capabilities, and seamless connectivity with B&R’s automation systems. The 5P81 supports multiple communication protocols (e.g., Ethernet/IP, Modbus), making it ideal for real-time monitoring, data logging, and HMI operations. Its IP65-rated enclosure ensures protection against dust and water, while wide temperature (-20°C to +50°C) and voltage (24 VDC ±15%) ranges enable use in challenging industrial settings.
