Kontron FlatClient Panel PCs now with Intel® Core 8th Generation Processors
Industrial Panel PCs offer delay-free 4K UHD image quality - an isolated power supply unit enables operation in EMC-critical environments.
Kontron, a leading global provider of IoT/Embedded Computing Technology (ECT), now relies on powerful 8th generation Intel® Core processors for its FlatClient Panel PC series to meet the increasing demands for graphics and computing power. Optionally, the further improved FlatClient Panel PCs are available with an isolated power supply unit, which avoids or interrupts ground loops and thus guarantees even more reliable operation. The QIWI toolkit, which is also available as an option, transforms the Panel PCs into intuitively operated Web Panels that are easy to configure and maintain. The design of the FlatClient series has also been revised: The passpartout has been reduced and allows smaller external dimensions, thus simplifying system integration. All FlatClient Panel PCs with display sizes from 10.1" to 23.8" in widescreen and standard format can be operated in landscape and portrait mode and are CE and cULus certified.
The new models are available with Intel® Core i5-8365UE processors as a standard version; optionally also with Intel® Core i7-8665UE processors. The integrated processor graphics card Intel® UHD Graphics 620/610 supports 4K Ultra Definition Video and Triple Display, HDMI and DVI without an active adapter. The new processors also offer numerous interfaces, including two DDR4 SO-DIMM memory sockets for up to 64 GBytes, 2x GbE interfaces, 4x USB 3.1 and 2x DP++ ports. The optionally available QIWI toolkit is based on a Linux operating system with an optimized Chromium web browser and enables the display of sophisticated 2D and 3D visualizations, videos and large documents. QIWI is designed for industrial applications and can be easily configured via an intuitive user interface directly on the touch display or via a web interface.
All Panel PCs within the FlatClient series are robust, reliable and maintenance-free - and have already proven themselves many times in industrial environments. They have a full metal housing and are available either as built-in or stand-alone units with VESA mounting. The easy to clean, anti-reflective and scratch-resistant front glass offers IP65 protection. The front design is available with either PCAP touch, resistive touch or protection glass.
