Two new series of rugged, compact, industrial PC systems offer reliability, long life and revision control, and are based on the latest Industrial Mini-ITX motherboards.
Amplicon is introducing two new series of rugged, compact, industrial PC systems which offer reliability, long life and revision control, and are based on the latest Industrial Mini-ITX motherboards.
Both series have a highly flexible design, allowing them to be wall-mount, rack-mount or used on a benchtop.
One of the key features offered by both series' is a range of processing solutions to suit different applications, from VIA Eden for basic control, to Intel Pentium M for efficient performance, and on to Pentium 4 for the most demanding applications.
Built under strict ISO9001:2000 procedures to ensure repeatability, the models can also be customised to meet end users' exact needs.
The Impact-R 150 series systems are the most compact, featuring expansion for one half-length PCI card.
The series also allows the addition of a three further hard drives, enabling RAID systems, if required.
The Impact-R 200 series is larger in size, but unique in that it has expansion capacity for three half-length PCI cards.
All systems feature an array of I/O suited to industrial applications, including three RS232 ports, single/dual LAN with 10/100 and PCI Express gigabit network options and six USB ports.
Standard systems also feature a rugged hard drive and slim DVD R/W.
Jon Hutson, Amplicon's Professional Computing Product Manager, commented: "Mini-ITX is hugely popular in the commercial arena for its small size and ease of integration".
He continued: "With the addition of extended life cycles, revision control, and our superb new rugged enclosure, it will be just as popular in the industrial field".
Electroplated for long term protection against corrosion, both the Impact-R 150 and Impact-R 200 series are shipped with a "1+2" warranty package - where year 1 is UK on-site next business day support, and years 2 and 3 are return to base.
The systems also come with an extensive burn-in test report.
