Enclosure protects PCs from hosedown
As an alternative to expensive industrial computers, Armagard's Stainless Desktop PC enclosure enables standard office PCs to be used even in heavy washdown areas.
It gives system builders the freedom to take advantage of the low prices and high performance of tower PC systems without compromising system integrity in harsh environments.
IPWorkStation is ideal for localised control, measurement, inspection or intranet access by engineers outside of the control room.
It is available in IP54 (mild steel) or IP66 (stainless steel).
A Zone 2 hazardous model is also planned.
The TFT screen and membrane keyboard are available in different formats.
Side doors enable easy access to the PC drives and ports but security locks prevent unauthorised access.
The unit includes surge protected mains adapter and seven hole gland plate for cable entry.
The ergonomic keyboard plinth includes a wrist rest to prevent the potential of RSI complaints.
IPWorkStation may be used stand-alone, wall or pedestal-mounted.
