A mining application can involve control-room monitoring, process data collection, machine interfaces or remote equipment. Select an industrial computer by matching the computing load and interfaces to the location where it will operate. Record dust, temperature, vibration, moisture, power quality, ventilation and service-access conditions before comparing models. Check CPU, memory, storage, Ethernet, serial, USB, display and expansion requirements against the software and connected equipment. Ask for model-specific operating limits and environmental evidence, and verify any hazardous-area approval required for the complete installation. Define sample testing, acceptance criteria, warranty, spare availability, repair process and lifecycle support before deployment. Elpro Technologies supplies industrial PCs, fanless computers, embedded systems, industrial motherboards and panel PCs. Provide the application, I/O list, site conditions and project timeline to discuss options. FAQs: What should an RFQ include? Application, environment, software, interfaces, power, mounting and quantity. Is fanless always best? No; thermal design and site conditions determine suitability. Can an ordinary industrial PC be used in a hazardous area? Only when the exact system has the applicable documented approvals.
