Overview

The Advantech PPC-300 ADL_N series represents a versatile family of industrial panel PCs designed for demanding automation and HMI applications across multiple industries. Available in three screen sizes of 15.6 inch, 18.5 inch, and 21.5 inch with true-flat TFT LCD displays, these fanless widescreen panel PCs deliver reliable performance in factory automation, process control, and machine interface applications. At the heart of each unit is the Intel Alder Lake N97 quad-core processor with 6MB cache, operating at 2.0GHz base frequency with turbo boost capability up to 3.6GHz, providing substantial computing power while maintaining low power consumption between 35W and 45W depending on screen size. The systems support DDR5 4800MHz memory up to 16GB via a single SODIMM slot and offer flexible storage options including M.2 M Key 2280 supporting both SATA and NVMe PCIe interfaces plus a 2.5 inch SATA bay. Connectivity is comprehensive with dual Intel I226 LM 2.5GbE LAN ports, two RS-232/422/485 serial ports, two USB 3.2 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, DisplayPort for dual display capability, and audio line out. The IP66-rated front panel with multi-touch projected capacitive touchscreen ensures durability in harsh industrial environments, while the die-cast aluminum alloy enclosure provides excellent heat dissipation for the fanless thermal design. Expansion capabilities include M.2 B Key for 4G/5G wireless connectivity, M.2 E Key for WiFi, optional iDoor modules for additional I/O, and optional PCI or PCIe expansion. TPM 2.0 security is integrated on board, and the units support Windows 10 LTSC, Windows 11, Linux, and Android operating systems. With VESA 75 mounting support, wide operating temperature range from minus 10 to 50 degrees Celsius, and certifications including CE, FCC Class A, and UL, these panel PCs are ideal for critical infrastructure, machine automation, and industrial control applications.
