Nexcom Atom Industrial Fanless Computers

Nexcom Atom-series industrial PCs are compact, fanless computers engineered for rugged 24/7 operation in demanding environments. They use industrial-grade Intel Atom or Celeron processors and feature all-metal, dust-proof housings and wide-range DC power inputs. Without moving fans or disks, they deliver long MTBF and silent operation, minimizing maintenance. Systems are divided into 2 subtypes: Atom Compact and Atom Power.

What Are the Key Advantages of NEXCOM Fanless Industrial PCs?

The key advantages are their compact, fanless design, rugged all-metal construction, and ability to operate 24/7 in extreme environments without maintenance. NEXCOM's Atom-series industrial PCs, such as the NISE 109-E01 , use industrial-grade Intel Atom or Celeron processors and are tested to MIL-STD-810 shock and vibration levels. This fanless architecture minimizes downtime and maximizes the Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF).

Nexcom designs these systems to meet strict standards: many models comply with transportation and safety certifications such as EN 50155, EN 50121 and EN 45545-2, and are tested to MIL-STD-810 shock/vibration levels. They often carry IP6x ratings for dust/water resistance and operate in extreme temperatures (–40..+70 °C).

What is an Atom Compact Industrial PC?

An Atom Compact Industrial PC is an entry-level, small-form-factor fanless computer designed for space-critical automation tasks where rich connectivity is needed. Models like the NEXCOM NISE 105U  typically feature a complete I/O set, including multiple GbE LAN and serial ports, tailored for applications like data acquisition, digital signage, and self-service kiosks. These PCs are ruggedized for reliable performance in tight industrial spaces.

Typical applications span factory automation, energy/oil & gas, and transportation systems (e.g. rail or vehicle on-board PCs), handling tasks from data acquisition and process control to signage, HMIs and IoT gateways. With robust I/O (multiple GbE LANs, serial/CAN ports, SIM slots, etc.), wide-voltage support (e.g. 9–36VDC), and rock-solid build quality, Nexcom Atom computers provide reliable edge computing in harsh industrial, transit, and energy environments. Each Nexcom Atom series computer comes with industrial certifications and rugged qualifications (rail/vehicle E1/E13 marking, CE/FCC, ISO-9001 production, etc.), ensuring they meet the strict requirements of automation, transportation and energy system environments.

Nexcom Atom Compact

The Atom Compact series delivers entry-level fanless PCs powered by Intel Atom® processors. These small-form-factor controllers offer a complete I/O set tailored to space-critical tasks. As Nexcom notes, Atom Compact models serve as “ideal centerpieces in space-critical, entry-level applications such as data acquisition, digital signage, gate control, self-service systems, kiosks, and points of sale”.

In practice, they provide modest compute (dual or quad core Atom/Celeron) and rich connectivity for functions like basic passenger information systems, IoT data gateways or simple HMI consoles. They inherit Nexcom’s rugged design: anti-shock aluminum chassis, wide-temperature operation, and long-life industrial components.

In railway or machine-automation settings, Atom Compact PCs typically include multiple GbE LAN, serial/RS-485 (or CAN) ports, SIM-card slots, video outputs and storage bays – enough I/O for entry-level rolling-stock or factory control functions. Typical uses include embedded signage, data logging, human-machine interfaces, access control and other compact automation tasks.

Who needs this Industrial Box PC?

Industrial box PCs are needed by professionals in factory automation, energy, oil & gas, and transportation systems who require reliable edge computing in harsh environments. The NEXCOM Atom Power series, featuring the NISE 2400-J1900 , is built for demanding, high-performance workloads under extreme conditions, including wide-range voltage input (9–30VDC). These systems are critical for process control and data logging where high durability is essential.

Nexcom Atom Power

The Atom Power series targets higher-power and harsh-environment applications. These fanless computers use rugged aluminum chassis and industrial-grade components to deliver stable, noiseless performance over a very wide temperature range. Nexcom emphasizes their deployment in factory automation, industrial process control and transportation systems, where wide input voltage and extreme conditions are common.

Atom Power systems support features like rich I/O and extended storage in a durable design; they often include protection like tight chassis sealing and shock resistance equivalent to MIL-STD-810. In short, Atom Power units are built for demanding, high-performance workloads under harsh conditions.
