Advantech Industrial Automation Group introduces the PPC-3150 (15”) and PPC-3170 (17”) fanless slim form factor panel PCs designed to operate in the harshest environments while also providing the ability to expand their functionality to meet the user requirements.

With high performance low cost Quad Core Intel Atom E3845 processors, the PPC-3150 and PPC-3170 have been designed to be the most economical fast panel PCs available for machine building and process applications.

Many panel PCs are designed to work in “normal” temperatures of between 0~50°C, but the PPC-3150 and PPC-3170 have been designed to work in temperatures between -20~60°C thereby allowing them to continue to operate in a wide range of environments. For added performance in unstable environments, the PPC-3150 and PPC-3170 accept power inputs from 9 to 32 volts thereby ensuring that when power fluctuates the devices keep working.

The slimness of the PPC-3150 and PPC-3170 hasn’t compromised the performance and both models include a wide array of IO ports such as two RS-232, one isolated RS-422/485 with terminal, one USB 3.0, three USB 2.0, and one dual GbE port. They also come with either a PCI or a PCIex1 integrated expansion slot and there is an optional expansion module with four choices (Internal USB, CFast, CF, one DI/O + one RS232) available.
