• Front portrait mounting as second standard mounting position
• Solid-state drive (SSD) optionally 256 GB, 240 GB or 480 GB, SATA hard disk, or CFast cards with up to 128 GB

High degree of industrial functionality and flexibility for implementing embedded solutions

• Flexible memory concepts (e.g. 2 mass storage units possible)
• 3 x LAN 10/100/1000 Mbps connections; teaming-capable
• PROFINET interface onboard
• 4 x high-speed USB 3.0 ports; 2 serial interfaces (optional)
• Flexible installation and mounting options (top hat DIN rail, wall, portrait mounting)
• Simple expansion capability (up to 2 PCIe slots)
• On-off switch

High system availability in order to reduce the risk of potential failures and maintenance costs

• Maintenance-free since no rotating parts (fans, hard disks) and operation without battery possible
• 512 KB NVRAM can be written by Software Controller
• Front LED for efficient self-diagnostics; optimized for headless operation through special BIOS properties
• System-tested SIMATIC software

High investment security in order to reduce engineering costs

• Long-term availability: Service and support period of 8 to 10 years after market launch
• Compatible with existing installations

The SIMATIC IPC427E provides machine, plant and control cabinet builders with a high-performance, compact PC platform for use at machine or process level, or in the industrial environment for:

• Measuring and checking, open-loop and closed-loop control of process and machine data
• Acquisition, further processing and visualization of data
• All applications at the machine level – created in C/C++ or with Software Controller/WinCC RT Advanced – which require rugged, ultra-compact IPCs with high computing power
• Additional new applications such as shipbuilding, building automation, water treatment

The application spectrum ranges from automation computers fully integrated in TIA with CPU 1500S Software Controllers, for example, to C/C++-based automation solutions with VxWorks, for example, and “standalone” applications for general IT applications.
For software products that require Windows 7 Ultimate, the combination of Windows 7 Ultimate is available preinstalled on the hard disk or SSD.

The SIMATIC IPC427E has the CE mark for use in industrial applications as well as in domestic, business and commercial environments. It can therefore also be used in building automation systems or in public facilities. The device also has the most important marine approvals.

Due to the fan-free design and use of SIMATIC PC CFast memories or SSDs there are no rotating parts, which increases system availability.

The SIMATIC PC can be ordered in conjunction with WinCC SCADA or WinCC (Advanced, Professional) as SIMATIC HMI packages with a price advantage.
