Overview
SIMATIC Box PCs provide mechanical engineers, plant engi-
neers and control cabinet makers with particularly rugged indus-
trial PC systems for use in powerful yet compact applications.
Three device classes are available for various requirements:
SIMATIC Microbox PC 427B – ultra-compact and
maintenance-free: the flexible embedded industrial PC
SIMATIC Box PC 627B – maximum performance in the most
restricted space / with Intel Core 2 Duo technology
SIMATIC Box PC 827B – maximum performance with high
flexibility / with Intel Core 2 Duo technology
