Description

The Box PC SIMATIC IPC827C is a rugged and flexibly expandable control cabinet PC for machine-level use in 24-hour continuous operation at ambient temperatures of up to 55 °C.

Flexible scaling and expansion thanks to five long slots:

3 x PCI
1 x PCIe x16
1 x PCIe x4

For configuring low-maintenance systems without a harddisk, the IPC827C is equipped with:

two CompactFlash drive slots easily accessible from the outside

and Solid-state drive with 50 GB (SATA, SLC).

Benefits

Maximum performance and extremely short system response times:
• Intel Core processors (i7, i3)
• High-performance onboard HD graphics integrated in the CPU
• DDR3 storage technology

Very high system availability and data security due to
• Onboard RAID controller
• Solid-state drive (SSD) with 50 GB (SATA, SLC)
• ECC-RAM, work memory with error correction

Remote access with Intel AMT (see hint)

Optional PROFIBUS or PROFINET interface with three ports for low-cost connection of distributed field devices or to interfaces with SIMATIC S7

High data transmission rates and redundancy thanks to two teaming-capable Gigabit Ethernet connections

4 x Hi-Speed USB 2.0 ports

Energy-efficient industrial PCs:
• Low power consumption due to state-of-the-art mobile technology
• Wake-on-LAN functionality for targeted booting of the IPCs from a central location
via a network, e.g. after a weekend without production.

Design and functions

SIMATIC IPC front/portrait assembly kit (click-to-zoom)

Rugged and long-term availability with the same footprint to SIMATIC IPC627C.
Fast diagnostics of the operating state and display of the BIOS start procedure by means of two freely programmable 7-segment displays with two additional status LEDs, e.g. for acknowledgements during data transmission.
Fast replacement of the CMOS battery even when installed due to externally accessible battery compartment.
Flexible installation in control cabinets with a high level of user friendliness due to front/portrait assembly kit and mounting brackets at ambient temperatures of up to 55 °C. All function elements and interfaces can therefore be accessed from the front.

Hint:

Suitable protective measures (among others IT-Security, e.g. network segmentation) have to be taken up to ensure a safe operation of the plant. You find further information about the topic of Industrial Security on the Internet under www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity
