Harsh environments and confined cabinet or enclosure installations can lead to extreme temperatures; this is a common reality in many industrial and embedded computing applications. Our range of wide-temperature computers consists of box PCs, panel PCs, SBCs, motherboards, and carrier board solutions. They are engineered to last, no matter where they’re deployed. The minimum required temperature rating for our selection of wide-temperature computers is -10°C to 60°C, with some systems rated for even more extreme conditions, configured with components capable of withstanding -40°C to 85°C extended temperatures.

Although the terms “wide temperature range” and “extended temperature range” may appear interchangeable, they have distinct meanings when applied to industrial PCs. Understanding these differences is crucial for selecting the appropriate hardware for specific environmental conditions, ensuring optimal performance and reliability when choosing your next edge computer.
Standard commercial PCs are generally designed to operate within a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C. In contrast, industrial PCs with wide and extended temperature capabilities can endure much more extreme conditions, guaranteeing reliable performance even in the harshest environments.
A wide temperature range for a PC typically refers to the extensive range of temperatures within which an industrial PC can operate reliably. For example, a wide temperature industrial PC might function within a range of -10°C to +60°C, encompassing a broad span of extreme temperatures. These industrial PCs are designed to withstand substantial thermal fluctuations without compromising their performance or lifespan.
In the harshest environments, such as oil and gas, mining, military, and aerospace, where extreme temperatures are common, extended temperature computers are recommended. These rugged industrial PCs can operate within temperature ranges of -40℃ to 85℃, ensuring they can withstand both scorching heat and freezing cold. This capability allows critical operations to continue uninterrupted, regardless of the environmental conditions.
