CRB-BLUELINE

3U Small Size CompactPCI® IPC Systems

172mm x 132mm x 208mm Rack, up to 5 Slots Backplane, Removable PSU


Rugged, expandable, economic - the new CRB-BLUELINE series of miniature CompactPCI® IPC systems from EKF is suitable for all industrial requirements, even under harsh conditions. The small rack is built of high-quality 19-inch components. With its low dimensions of only 172x132x208mm (3U/30HP), the BLUELINE provides space for up to five CompactPCI® modules (single size Eurocard style). The BLUELINE systems include an industrial grade removable power supply.



EKF offers a wide range of scalable CPU boards suitable for the BLUELINE to choose from, beginning with the power optimized Intel® Atom™ processor series, up to the Intel® Core™ i7 high performance CPU.

A mass storage device, either 2.5- or 1.8-inch SSD, or a CompactFlash (option CFast) card, is integral part of the CPU module. Cooling by natural convection is already sufficient for low power processor boards.

Available as accessories, the BLUELINE can be equipped with wall or bottom mount brackets. A silent 120mm x 120mm cooling fan unit is provided as an option for such high performance CPU boards which require forced convection.

When combined with a CompactPCI CPU card such as the PC3-ALLEGRO, a BLUELINE system supersedes entirely an industrial PC. Another three CPCI slots are available for application specific system expansion. Thanks to the modular, nonproprietary concept, a BLUELINE system can be reconfigured or upgraded in just a few minutes, reducing potential breakdown times to a minimum.



The overall reliability of any system depends in particular on the quality of its power supply unit. BLUELINE systems are provided with a removable, high-grade industrial PSU from a leading German manufacturer. As of current, the CRB-BLUELINE systems can be equipped with PSU versions suitable either for 120/230VAC or 24VDC power line input (automotive applications). The BLUELINE is a long-time available and scalable IPC system, combining high reliability and small size with an affordable price, thus forming the better alternative compared to many other PC based solutions. Please request for custom specific versions, tailored to your individual needs. Quality pays, its up to you!
