Moxa MPC-2240 ECDIS fanless panel computer

Moxa has announced the release of the MPC-2240 ECDIS panel computer. The unit is a sleek, buttonless, 24″, flat-glass, ECDIS, colour-calibrated and fanless panel computer for marine navigation applications.

Powered by the Intel Ivy Bridge Celeron CPU processor 1047UE (2M cache, 1.40 GHz) by default and 3rd generation Core i3 and i7 CPU processors as options on request, the device provides 4 GB of system memory (up to 16 GB on request), allowing for fast graphics renders suitable for a wide variety of ship systems and other environmentally harsh HMIs.

The product was built with a modular design to help reduce deployment costs and overall time-to-market by allowing convenient and rapid integration into a wide variety of systems. Although it does not use any kind of fan, thermal engineering gives the panel computer steady reliability when working in the heat extremes common in industrial marine environments. The IP54-rated enclosure provides strong, durable protection against moisture, dust and other environmental hazards.

The panel computers are certified ready for use in any maritime application. They are compliant with a variety of marine standards, including IEC 60945, DNV and IACS E10, and may also be ordered with ECDIS IEC 61174 type approved model for use in bridge navigation systems.
