Moxa Provides Wide Temperature Models for Harsh Industrial Applications
Industrial applications are often associated with harsh, demanding environments. Facilities or key devices may be located at remote places where there is no protection from severe weather conditions. For devices that are not designed to tolerate harsh conditions, this often presents significant limitations in how they can be used for the application. Typical industrial standards are for devices to operate within a temperature range of 0 to 40℃. Although far more rugged than consumer standards, industrial devices may unable to withstand particularly harsh environments and may thus require costly construction to provide protection from the elements.
MOXA offers many embedded computers in wide temperature models that can operate reliably between -40 and 75 ℃, Wide temperature models present a much more reliable and affordable alternative to using regular industrial-grade devices. They are an ideal solution for any application that involves harsh industrial environments, such as power substation automation, gas station, intelligent transportation systems, environmental monitoring, manufacturing automation and other related systems.
With a fanless, diskless design, MOXA embedded computers generate less heat and consume less power, making them particularly reliable and less prone to failure over long periods. They are very well-suited for the following scenarios:
-
Outdoor applications, such as deserts or mountains, where it is difficult or costly to build a climate-controlled shelter for sensitive electronic equipment
-
Indoor applications, such as a factory floor, where equipment must be placed near machines that generate extreme heat
-
Mobile or mixed applications in harsh environments, such as in the military, where machines must operate reliably in low and high temperatures
Currently, MOXA offers three wide temperature models: the thinkcore IA241-T, thinkcore IA240-T and UC-7110-T. Each model operates flawlessly in temperatures as low as -40℃ and as high as 75 ℃, making each model a robust, reliable, ready-to-run solution for harsh industrial applications. |
