Design and functions

With a housing volume of approximately one liter and compact dimensions of 191 x 100 x 60 mm (W x H x D), the Nanobox PC SIMATIC IPC227D fits in small control boxes, as well as directly in a machine or the machine stand. All its interfaces are on one side, so the device can be cabled up easily. It can be installed with considerable versatility in four different mounting variants: standard rail, wall, portrait and side mounting.

The Nanobox PC SIMATIC IPC227D can be very flexibly installed with DIN rail, wall, portrait, side assembly (click-to-zoom)

The IPC227D is also available as compact Nanopanel PC SIMATIC IPC277D with brilliant wide-screen displays of 7“ upwards. > Nanopanel PC SIMATIC IPC277D

The Nanobox PC with long-term availability is configurable online and is supplied with a preinstalled and activated operating system. For fast commissioning, turnkey bundles are offered complete with visualization software WinCC RT Advanced V11 and/or control software WinAC RTX (F).
