For operation in harsh industrial environments, the IP40-rated DIN-rail fanless box PC has a wide operating temperature of -40°C to 85°C, 9 to 36 VDC wide voltage input with OVP, UVP, OCP as well as RPP, and up to 3G vibration endurance. The anti-explosion ICO300-83M is specially designed for the oil and gas industry, chemical industry, steel industry, distilling industry, and more.
“Heavy-duty industries are some of the most dangerous and challenging work environments. In addition to operation in broad temperature ranges, the ICO300-83M has obtained the ATEX, CID2 certifications to mitigate safety risks in hazardous environments such as oil, gas, and chemical manufacturing,” said Mark Lu, the product manager of Product PM Division at Axiomtek. “This explosion-proof DIN-rail gateway system supports one M.2 Key B 3052 and one full-size PCI Express Mini Card slot for LTE or Wi-Fi modules to ensure superior connectivity for real-time communications. Besides, a half-size PCI Express Mini Card slot and two SIM slots also maximize efficiency.”
Combining flexible configuration and easy expansion design, the cost-effective ICO300-83M supports an array of functional I/O, including six isolated RS-232/422/485 serial ports, one HDMI port, two USB 3.0 ports, three isolated Gigabit Ethernet ports, one 8-in/8-out DIO port, and five antenna openings for WLAN and WWAN usage. For additional storage to expand functionality, the IIoT gateway system comes with one mSATA occupied with a PCI Express Mini Card slot, an internal 2.5” SATA drive, and an optional eMMC on board. The ICO300-83M is compatible with Windows® 10, IoT and Linux. It also supports Axiomtek’s AXView software to fulfill the requirement of remote monitoring. In addition, a cold boot at -40°C is available to help eliminate issues affecting the operational reliability of the system. Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM 2.0) is also available to ensure critical information security.
The ICO300-83M will be ready for purchase in September 2021.
