How to Choose the Right Industrial Computer

1. Confirm the mounting space. For 19″ racks choose a rackmount PC and check the height and depth; for a panel or wall mount HMI choose a panel PC and check screen & cutout size; for a confined space or dusty environment choose a fanless PC.
2. Assess the environment. Dust, moisture, vibration, and ambient temperature all affect whether a sealed fanless unit or fan cooled rackmount unit is right. For more extreme conditions, all the internal components such as main board, RAM and SSD must be rated for wide temperatures.
3. Check the power supply. Confirm whether the site runs DC 12/24/48/110V or AC 230V, and check for supply stability, before specifying.
4. Lifecycle plan. Deployments running 5+ years benefit from industrial hardware’s longer availability window.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the difference between an industrial PC and a commercial PC?

This hardware is built for continuous, unattended operation in harsh conditions, with a wider operating temperature range, sealed or fanless construction, and a 5 to 10-year lifecycle. A commercial PC suits stable office conditions and a 1 to 3 year replacement cycle, making it unsuitable for manufacturing, mining, or outdoor deployments.

Should I choose a fanless or rackmount unit?

Fanless units suit dusty, vibration-heavy, or space-constrained sites where a cooling fan is a reliability risk. Rackmount units suit server rooms and control cabinets needing higher processing power or easier servicing. The right choice depends on the installation environment, not raw performance alone.

What temperature range does this hardware handle?

Most units in this range are rated to at least 60°C operating temperature, well above the roughly 35°C ceiling of standard commercial hardware. The exact range varies by model and should be checked against the site’s actual conditions. Don’t forget the internal components such as RAM and SSD must also be rated to tolerate an even wider temperature range which they endure inside the casing.

How long does this hardware typically last before replacement?

These platforms are typically available for 5 to 10 years, compared to 1 to 2 years for consumer IT hardware. This matters for programmes that need identical or compatible replacement units across a multi-year deployment.

Does Esis build custom units?

Yes. Esis configures custom hardware for non-standard mounting, I/O requirements, or legacy system replacement, in addition to the pre-configured rackmount, fanless, and panel PC ranges.

What power options are supported?

Depending on the model, this range supports DC 12V, 24V, 48V, or 110V input, or standard AC 230V, matched to the site’s available supply.

Are panel PCs suitable for medical environments?

Yes. Esis stocks medical panel PCs and displays alongside the standard panel PC range, using the same all-in-one touchscreen form factor configured for healthcare settings.

What brands does Esis stock?

Esis stocks CyberVisuell, Advantech, Premio, and Getac computing hardware, alongside custom-built configurations engineered in-house for specific applications.
