Phoenix Contact now offers a new 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. It offers an extended temperature range from –40 to 70°C and an input voltage range from 9 to 36 V.
Designed for embedded operating systems, such as Windows Embedded Standard, Windows CE, or Linux, the box PC utilises reliable standards that make it possible for customers to commission it easily. With a thermal design power of 4,5 W, it is especially energy-efficient and the 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 6xUSB 2.0, 1xVGA, and 1xCOM (RS232/422/485). 2xGigabit Ethernet ports are available as well as a CompactFlash slot and digital I/Os.
