Thermal Dissipation Concepts

Usually the processor is the main heat producing part, but chipset and regular parts can also generate a significant amount of heat. Therefore, the processor and chipset should be as low power as possible. To remove heat from the back surface of the die at the top of the processor package is a key part of the design. PERFECTRON’s compact but effective fan-less design, through the incorporation of copper heat pipes and High & Low heat sink structure, is capable of dissolving 80% of the heat. As the most common heat-transfer device available, heat pipes can manage the transfer of heat between two solid interfaces effectively. Combining the advantages of thermal-conductivity and phase transition, heat pipes are extremely light-weight compared with traditional cooling methods.

Following our core principle, PERFECTRON incorporates only the best of the best materials. Copper heat pipes offer high effective thermal conductivities, and is considered the most reliable cooling method. We understand that with just a single material; neither can Aluminum, with its thermal conductivity being 266, nor can Copper, 402, bring out the extraordinary result of a copper heat pipe, of which the conductivity can hit as high as 5000!

 

Thicker heat pipes with 8mm diameters are also applied to provide even higher efficiency in heat dissipation PERFECTRON’s mechanical design puts heat distribution, system orientation, surface emissivity and hot spot into consideration. Even under crucial conditions, our products can run full speed at +70℃ without CPU throttling!

MIL-STD-810G – Achieving Ultimate Resistance to Shock & Vibration

Unprecedented Invincibility and utmost reliability are synonymous with PERFECTRON’s SR series rugged systems. When it comes to true ruggedness, MIL-STD-810G standard is considered the upmost principle, which is originally established by the US government to simulate how materials would hold up to harsh environments. The whole set of testing procedures for resistance to shock, vibration, dust, humidity, and extreme temperatures. All the key components are soldered onboard to eliminate the risk of harm caused by vibration; this design enhances the resistance to shock & vibration and eliminates the concern about failed connection caused by sudden impact. Not only compliant with but surpassing the strict standard, PERFECTRON MIL-STD related products are ready to meet all the unforeseeable rugged challenges!

Standard Verifications

To achieve smooth operation in harsh environment, the ability to withstand vibration as high as 5grms, 30~50G of shock is indispensable. These environmental disturbances are to be conquered with the toughest design and components. PERFECTRON’s products undergo environmental testing to guarantee reliable performance under a variety of conditions, such as mechanical shock, extreme vibration, temperature shock, and power interruptions. 

For railway application, EN50155 classification is deemed the supreme standard. Our RC product line (RC100/RC200), specifically designed for mass transportation purpose, is in accordance with the class limits. The criteria fulfill customers’ demands on the following domains.
