BERGHOF CCPU 8/8/4-CSC-1131 – Compact IEC 61131-3 CPU Module | BERGHOF C-Series Platform
Engineering Background
BERGHOF Automation is a German manufacturer with decades of expertise in ruggedized industrial control systems. The C-Series platform was engineered for demanding process environments where deterministic execution, compact form factor, and multi-protocol connectivity are non-negotiable. The CCPU 8/8/4-CSC-1131 represents the integration of onboard I/O with a full IEC 61131-3 runtime engine, eliminating the need for separate I/O expansion in small-to-medium control nodes.
Product Positioning
This CPU module is purpose-built for OEM machine builders, system integrators, and plant engineers who require a self-contained, programmable controller with native digital and analog I/O in a single DIN-rail unit. It is a direct replacement and upgrade path for legacy BERGHOF C-Series installations and is fully compatible with the BERGHOF programming environment based on CODESYS.

Proven Application Environments
- Machine Automation: Packaging lines, conveyor control, press and stamping machines requiring compact PLC nodes with onboard I/O.
- Process Control: Water treatment, HVAC, and chemical dosing systems leveraging the analog input channels for sensor feedback loops.
- Building Automation: Energy management and BMS integration via Modbus TCP/RTU protocols.
- OEM Panel Builders: Space-constrained control panels where a single-unit CPU + I/O solution reduces wiring complexity and BOM cost.
- Retrofit Projects: Drop-in replacement for aging BERGHOF C-Series controllers with preserved program compatibility.
Engineering Advantages
- Integrated I/O Architecture: 8DI + 8DO + 4AI onboard eliminates the need for a separate I/O bus coupler in small node deployments, reducing panel footprint by up to 40%.
- IEC 61131-3 Multi-Language Runtime: Supports LD, FBD, ST, IL, and SFC — engineers can reuse existing CODESYS libraries without requalification.
- Deterministic Cycle Execution: Hard real-time task scheduling ensures predictable scan times critical for motion-adjacent and safety-adjacent applications.
- Multi-Protocol Connectivity: Native Ethernet with Modbus TCP and EtherNet/IP support enables seamless SCADA and HMI integration without additional gateways.
- Wide Supply Tolerance: 24 VDC ±20% input range accommodates industrial power rail fluctuations without additional conditioning.
- Compact DIN-Rail Form Factor: Optimized for space-constrained enclosures; mounts directly on standard 35 mm rail.
System Architecture & Signal Flow
The CCPU 8/8/4-CSC-1131 follows a unified backplane architecture where the CPU core, I/O subsystem, and communication stack share a common internal bus:
- Field Signal Layer: 24 VDC digital inputs are optically isolated; analog inputs pass through a dedicated 12-bit ADC with configurable input range per channel.
- CPU Execution Layer: The IEC 61131-3 runtime executes user programs in configurable cyclic, event-driven, or freewheeling tasks. Program memory is retained in non-volatile flash.
- Communication Layer: Ethernet port handles Modbus TCP master/slave and EtherNet/IP adapter roles simultaneously. Serial port supports Modbus RTU for legacy field device integration.
- Output Driver Layer: Transistor digital outputs are short-circuit protected with diagnostic feedback to the CPU for fault detection without external monitoring hardware.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is this module compatible with CODESYS 3.x projects developed for other BERGHOF C-Series CPUs?
A: Yes, provided the target hardware configuration matches. Minor I/O mapping adjustments may be required if migrating from a different I/O count variant.
Q: Can the analog inputs be configured for both voltage and current signals?
A: Yes, each of the 4 analog input channels is individually configurable for 0–10 V or 4–20 mA via software parameter or hardware jumper (refer to BERGHOF hardware manual for your firmware revision).
Q: What is the maximum Ethernet communication cycle time for Modbus TCP?
A: Typical Modbus TCP response time is <10 ms under normal network load. Actual performance depends on network topology and number of concurrent connections.
Q: Does Konmask provide the BERGHOF programming software?
A: BERGHOF Automation Studio is available directly from BERGHOF. Konmask can assist with sourcing the correct software version compatible with this firmware. Contact us for guidance.
