There’s a new addition to the Advantech rugged UTC-500 all-in-one touch computer series – the UTC-520IT. This 21.5-inch all-in-one system is designed for harsh environments and features all-around IP66/69K-rated ingress protection with a corrosion-resistant stainless steel housing. Equipped with M12 I/O connectors, the UTC-520IT provides a watertight solution that can withstand the most demanding applications.
The UTC-520IT features an 11th Gen Intel® i5-1145G7E processor that offers up to 19% better energy efficiency over its 10th Gen predecessors, and supports vPro for easy remote management with DDR4-3200 memory up to 64 GB. With integrated Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics, the UTC-520IT expedites graphics performance, making it an ideal choice for graphics-intensive tasks.
Designed for mission-critical industrial applications, this rugged all-in-one computer can work 24/7 under a wide range of operating temperatures (-10 ~ 50 °C / 14 ~ 122 °F) and supports wide input voltage (12 ~ 32 V). The 21-inch 16:9 widescreen monitor can display landscape or portrait content. The system supports multiple OS, including Windows and Linux, increasing overall compatibility and flexibility.
The system can be integrated with optional camera modules, light sensors and a waterproof Wi-Fi receiver for a cable-free connection to extend functionality for diverse applications. This expandable design offers enhanced operation for various uses, including a factory HMI, semi-outdoor computing platform, or livestock herd management control panel.
Rugged, high-performance touch computer
Advantech’s UTC-520IT is built to provide a tough high-performance touch computer that can be deployed in harsh industrial environments. To ensure optimal operation under extreme conditions, the corrosion-resistant stainless steel enclosure is IP66/69K-rated for resistance to water and dust ingress, providing robust protection in case of exposure to chemicals or bad weather. Like the other UTC series products, UTC-520IT also features a low-power, fanless design for superior energy efficiency, quiet operation and an extended product lifecycle.
The UTC-520IT system’s I/O ports are equipped with M12 connectors for industrial applications requiring a reliable waterproof computing system. The advantages of M12 connectors for industrial cabling include easy assembly, compact size, and secure connection even under shock or vibration. With M12 connectors, the UTC-520IT is an industrial-grade touch computer that can be quickly deployed, tested, and maintained.
Unlike consumer-grade all-in-one units, this rugged all-in-one computer supports a wide operating temperature range of -10 ~ 50 °C (14 ~ 122 °F) to ensure stable operation and reliable performance under extreme temperature variations. Combined with the wide input voltage range (12 ~ 32 V), this allows switching between power sources without converters, making the UTC-520IT66/69K ideal for factory environments.
