Why DIN Rail Mounting?

In industrial control cabinets, space is precious. Panel-mounting a full Box PC or panel PC requires a large cutout and significant depth. A DIN rail PC clips directly onto the standard 35mm DIN rail already present in virtually every control cabinet — no cutouts, no brackets, no extra mounting hardware.

Avalue DIN Rail PC Highlights

  • 35mm DIN rail clip mount — standard, tool-free installation
  • Fanless passive cooling — no dust ingress, no bearing failure in sealed cabinets
  • Compact form factor — typically under 200mm wide
  • Wide DC input — 9–36V DC for direct connection to cabinet power bus
  • Multiple COM ports — RS-232/422/485 for PLC and field device connectivity
  • Dual LAN — OT/IT network separation
  • GPIO — digital I/O for alarm and interlock signals

Processor Options

Available with Intel Atom, Celeron, or Core i5/i7 depending on the compute requirements — from simple data logging gateways to full SCADA edge nodes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a DIN rail PC and how is it installed?
A DIN rail PC is an industrial computer designed to clip directly onto a standard 35mm DIN rail — the same rail used for PLCs, circuit breakers, and terminals in control cabinets. Installation requires no cutouts or special brackets; the PC simply snaps onto the rail. This makes DIN rail PCs the easiest industrial computer format to add to existing control cabinets.
What are the advantages of DIN rail mounted industrial PCs?
DIN rail PCs save panel space (no cutout required), are easy to install and replace, support wide DC input voltage (typically 9–36V) for direct cabinet power connection, and their fanless design prevents dust ingress in sealed cabinets. They sit alongside PLCs and I/O modules on the same rail, keeping the control cabinet organised without additional mounting hardware.
What applications are best suited to DIN rail industrial PCs?
DIN rail PCs are ideal for protocol gateway and data concentrator applications (Modbus to OPC UA, serial to Ethernet), edge computing nodes inside control panels, SCADA data acquisition servers, IoT connectivity modules, and small HMI server applications. They are not suitable for SCADA workstations requiring a display — use a panel PC or box PC with a separate monitor for those.
What power supply does a DIN rail PC use?
DIN rail PCs use wide-range DC input — typically 9V to 36V DC — which connects directly to the 24V DC supply already present in most industrial control cabinets. This eliminates the need for a separate AC-DC power supply unit, simplifying wiring and reducing cabinet component count.
