nPC20 Competitive Comparisons

• Closest Competition is Advantech ARK-1123 Series− New series for both Nematron and Advantech− Both are small fanless nodes w/ multi-mounting options

• Nematron’s will be UL 508 and UL CID2 Certified– Advantech’s is certified to a UL ITE standard for home use– ARK-1123 is NOT certified for Hazardous Locations

• Nematron’s input power is wide range 24 VDC (10-30)– Advantech requires a regulated 12 VDC input (requires external AC brick supply)– Many applications already have 24 VDC (especially in CID2 applications)

• nPC20 does not require airflow for 55°C operation− Advantech requires air flow (0.7 m/s) for 40°C operation− Many enclosures do not have air flow and can exceed 40°C internal temp

• ATOM E3826 in base nPC20 has better performance than the ATOM E3825 used in the base ARK-1123

– 679 vs. 560 Passmark performance• Upgraded Quad Core ATOM E3845 in nPC20 has a higher Junction

temperature than the Quad Core Celeron J1900 used in the ARK-1123– 5-10°C higher– Allows more stable and reliable operation (especially at higher temps)

• Nematron distributor cost is within 10-12% of Advantech direct pricing– Included Mounting methods (no extra charge)

nPC20 Competitive Comparisons

• Truly Industrial UL/cUL ratings– Nematron UL 508 compliance allows easy integration into the UL Panel Builders

Program – NEMA Type compliance is actually tested by UL as part of this certification, not just

stated or implied– UL Description of Nematron approvals for Industrial Control Equipment (Programmable

Controllers) is as follows:

• Other Suppliers do NOT have Industrial UL ratings!– Advantech’s (and other overseas suppliers) UL approvals are for Informational

Technology Equipment (ITE), UL description as follows:

Note: ITE approvals have NO requirement for NEMA Type testing!

Which one would you promote to your industrial customers?
