Computer System Enclosure – Can Be Used Anyplace
Computer system Housing Can be utilized all over the place
A Computer system housing is one of the first lines of protection to safeguard the computer devices from most sorts of attack, including protection from actual physical attack, hackers and grime.
Let us investigate a Computer enclosure.
These units are on the market in polycarbonate however the higher quality products are produced from heavy gauge steel sheet metal that is welded and formed to present a form of sanctuary for the pc, screen and keyboard. With all the doors secured the only way in is being the key holder, unless you intend in breaking into the computer enclosure, this was very common around a decade ago when the cost of computer memory was so high and an easy victim for thieves.
But seeing that the value for the RAM is so low, it is not worth the threat, so what other reasons could a Computer enclosure be used for? Well naturally the first one is in a factory to provide defense from the dust, dirt and coolant that is present on every factory floor.
Police stations.
When a prisoner is taken to a police station to be processed there is an area where the criminal enters their particular details, however when some criminals are high on drugs or drink they can get violent and for example try and push the pc and monitor off a table onto the ground, placing the equipment into a Computer system enclosure protects them from all parts of abuse, as the enclosure is bolted to the desk and the desk is fastened to the ground.
Farm Information.
Well if someone told you farmers where using PC enclosures to secure their computers in the collection buildings for their crops you would think it was farfetched, yet they are tracking how the produce is and how long it takes to harvest it, in the hope of making it a more slick operation and increase profitability.
A good Computer enclosure comes complete with a thermostatic controlled cooling unit, otherwise the cooling system will be on 24 hours per day, if the plant works on a 24×7 basis leading to high and not effective cooling bills.
Some producers offer an industrial keyboard so that information can be entered even whilst the operator is wearing gloves, this deminishes time and increases profit on the factory line.
A common matter here is that apart from defending the pc equipment they also offer cost relief measures, this is ideal in a manufacturing factory as every minute can be applied to earn money for the manufacturing owner.
Not limited to computers, there are also printer enclosures, these allow standard inkjet and laser printers to be fitted in areas thought too dangerous previously, these then offer an entire solution for all the hardware, whilst reducing production down time as well as costs for the hardware, as industrial computers are around ten times the price of a standard PC and when a challenge transpires it can be days before an engineer can come to site to re-configure the industrial computer.
Over the past 20 years the author has developed a range of outdoor digital signage protective enclosures and this range of LCD enclosure are installed throughout the world for digital signage hardware protection, just as their range of PC enclosure is installed in factory environments.
