NEXCOM's C1D2 Certified Panel PC Ensures Safe Operation for Hazardous Environments

The ignition and explosion proof IPPC 1560TE provides safe operations in hazardous environments including oil and gas, petrochemical manufacturing, steel, and chemical industries.

NEXCOM's panel PC, IPPC 1560TE, has been certified by UL for class 1 division 2 (C1D2) hazardous locations (HazLoc). Addressing safety requirements, the UL C1D2 certification ensures that the panel PC is ignition and explosion proof, thus maintaining safe operation in hazardous environments including oil and gas, petrochemical manufacturing, steel, and chemical industries.


For use in industries where occupational hazards are prevalent and must be controlled, the IPPC 1560TE is specially engineered and certified by UL for use in "C1D2 environments" where flammable gases, vapors or liquids might exist. As one fire or explosion accident can be both deadly and financially devastating, UL listed, ATEX or IECEx certifications is a must for industrial control products to address fire and explosion risk management in HazLoc.

The UL C1D2 certification assures that the IPPC 1560TE as well as its circuits and components will not create sparks that could set off an explosion in case of leaks. In addition, the fanless and front bezel IP65 rating designs provide added protection against airborne dust, chemical substances, and water ingress, thus maintaining efficiency and reliability of mission-critical operations.

The IPPC 1560TE refines 15-inch panel PC specifications to meet the needs of C1D2 areas. Equipped with Intel®Core™ processors, the IPPC 1560TE delivers quick system responsiveness and operational controls. Coupled with two PCI slots and two mini-PCIe slots available with PROFINET, PROFIBUS, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, and EtherCAT interfaces, the panel PC can integrate with PLCs and field devices to give accurate flow monitoring and control for oil and gas gathering and production operations.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
