PPC-L62T, Compact 6-inch Fanless HMI Platform, Ready for System Integration

March 27, 2012 - PRLog -- Advantech, the embedded platform and integration services provider, is happy to launch the PPC-L62T, a new, fanless, all-in-one system powered by the Intel® Atom™ N455 processor. PPC-L62T has great computing power, and its compact, fanless design enables system integrators to build systems without concern over space or thermal problems. In addition, the aluminum front bezel with an IP65-rated water and dust resistant surface, give PPC-L62T the robustness needed for use in industrial any environments. Compact, slim and robust, PPC-L62T is ideal for any industrial application.

Complete Functionality in a Small Package

With a footprint of only 202 x 148 x 49 mm,  PPC-L62T, powered by an Intel® Atom™ N455 1.66 GHz processor, provides exceptional computing performance to manage most equipment needs. It is also equipped with four USB 2.0 ports, two serial ports, one audio line-out, and two Gigabit Ethernet connectors; I/O that is sure to fulfill big requirements in a small package. Dual-gigabit LAN provides reliable communication between machine and control unit; and it supportsteaming to enhance fault tolerance and load balancing. Considering the need for storage, PPC-L62T provides an optional hard-disk kit which allows for a 2.5” SATA HDD installation in the rear chassis.
Industrial-Grade, Robust Design

The ability to design a fanless system in such a small box represents one of Advantech’s core competencies in hardware design. But that's not all. In addition, PPC-L62T can operate in a temperature range from 0° to 50°C,  which covers most industrial environments. And, the IP65-compliant aluminum front bezel forms a solid structure providing excellent protection from shocks and vibration. Resistant to water, dust, shock and vibration, PPC-L62T is perfect for HMI applications, easy to embed into different equipment configurations, and suited to a variety of harsh environments.
