Phoenix Contact now offers a new product line of embedded box PCs for harsh industrial environments. The Valueline BPC Mini box PC is especially suited for control applications in the industrial environment, in outdoor embedded systems, and in machine and plant construction, and offers an extended temperature range from 40°C to +70°C and an input voltage range from +9 V to +36 V.
Designed for embedded operating systems such as Windows Embedded Standard, Windows CE or LINUX, the unit utilises reliable standards that make it possible for customers to commission it simply. With a thermal design power (TDP) of 4,5 W, it is especially energy efficient. Its compact design allows it to be directly snapped onto mounting rails so that it can be combined with other components to create a customer-oriented system solution.
The fanless PC uses the industrial temperature grade Intel Atom processor Z510PT (1,1 GHz) and features a wide range of interfaces, including 6x USB 2.0, 1x VGA and 1x COM (RS232/422/485). Two Gigabit Ethernet ports are available as well as a CompactFlash slot and digital I/Os. The main memory can be extended using a DDR2 SO-DIMM with up to 2 GB.
