Fanless Industrial PC with Intel Core i7

Fanless Industrial PC with Intel Core i7

A fanless PC with an Intel Core i7 processor runs without a cooling fan. Heat leaves the case through a sealed metal enclosure. Fanless designs have no moving parts to wear out, and they do not pull dust into the system. This makes them suited to factories, kiosks, machine control and other places where fans fail or where dust and airborne particles are present.

Thinvent's IPC5 industrial PC uses the Intel® Core™ i7-1255U processor from the 12th generation Intel Core i7 series. The processor has 10 cores, a maximum frequency of 4.7 GHz and 12 MB of cache. Each IPC5 configuration includes dual LAN ports, DDR4 memory from 16 GB to 64 GB, and a 512 GB or 1 TB SSD. A 12V 7A power adapter is included. Some models include dual-band WiFi, and others omit WiFi for wired-only networks.
