Sealevel Systems, Inc., an industry provider for industrial I/O and computing, announces the HazPAC10 Rugged Panel PC. Designed for Windows 10 IoT Embedded, the HazPAC 10 delivers powerful Intel processing combined with a bright, LCD, five-wire resistive touchscreen. And that’s just the beginning.

Built for Extreme Conditions

The HazPAC 10 features a fanless industrial computer with a wide -40°C to 60°C operating temperature. And for the most intense environments, the HazPAC 10 has a NEMA 4/IP64 front bezel and is certified by ATEX, IECEx, and for Class I, Division 2 (Groups A, B, C, D, T4).

Available with an 8.4″ or 15″ five-wire resistive touchscreen, the HazPAC 10 is perfect for a wide variety of control and HMI applications. The touchscreen integrates a glass surface that is waterproof, and impervious to flames, chemicals, solvents and stylus use for maximum abrasion and scratch resistance. The HazPAC 10’s aluminum front bezel maintains NEMA 4/IP64 protection from sprayed liquids including rain, snow, splashes, hose downs and other pressurized water streams. For further protection, the bezel is sealed against dust and dirt. With its Class I, Division 2 rating, the HazPAC 10 is also approved for locations where flammable liquids or gases are handled and processed.

“Our team embraced the opportunity to create the HazPAC 10. Not only were we able to capitalize on our extensive design playbook, but we also furthered our experience in achieving extreme performance in extreme conditions,” says Jeff Baldwin, Director of Engineering for Sealevel.

Embedded System Performance

Powered by an Intel Atom E3845 quad-core processor, the system has 8GB of DDR3 RAM and a 64GB CFast SSD port for maximum performance in embedded systems. Sealevel SeaCOM and SeaMAX hardware drivers are included to support system I/O and assist with custom application development. Standard I/O includes Ethernet, serial, USB and digital interfaces, as well as an mPCIe expansion slot. And the COM Express design allows for potential upgrades, future-proofing the hardware.
