PS10-2H2-DD3-AD3: CTC Parker Automation’s Industrial PC – Powering PS Series Power Stations​

In industrial power stations, where reliability and efficiency are non-negotiable, the right technology can make or break operations. Enter the PS10-2H2-DD3-AD3 Industrial PC with Touch Screen Monitor by CTC Parker Automation—a purpose-built solution designed to integrate seamlessly into the PS series of power stations. From its user-friendly interface to rugged durability, let’s explore why this industrial PC is a cornerstone of modern power station systems.

2. 10.4-Inch Touch Screen:  Interaction Meets Clear Visuals
At the heart of the PS10-2H2-DD3-AD3 is its 10.4-inch touchscreen monitor, a feature that simplifies daily operations for industrial teams. The display uses a bright color TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) panel with a VGA resolution of 640 x 480, delivering crisp visuals for data charts, system alerts, and operational metrics. The touchscreen eliminates the need for clunky external peripherals, allowing operators to navigate menus, input commands, and access real-time information with just a tap—ideal for fast-paced power station environments where every second counts.

3. Durability & Flexibility: Built for Tough Industrial Conditions
Industrial settings demand equipment that can withstand harsh conditions, and the PS10-2H2-DD3-AD3 rises to the challenge. A standout feature is its remote usage capability: the monitor and PC operate independently, so they don’t need to be physically connected. This flexibility lets users wall-mount the monitor in optimal workspaces, saving space and improving accessibility. To protect against dust, moisture, and physical damage, the system supports a NEMA 4 enclosure—perfect for environments where contamination risks are high. It also thrives in temperatures ranging from 0 to 50 degrees Celsius, ensuring stability even in fluctuating industrial climates.

4. Connectivity & Expandability: Ports and Slots for Every Need
No industrial PC is complete without robust connectivity, and the PS10-2H2-DD3-AD3 delivers. It comes equipped with a versatile range of ports: an Ethernet port for network and internet access, three external serial ports for legacy equipment, a video port, two PS/2 ports for peripherals, and a parallel port for specialized devices. For storage and customization, users can add a compact disk drive and a floppy disk drive, plus two flash slots (one internal, one external) for secure data storage. This expandability ensures the PC adapts to evolving operational needs over time.

5. Reliable Performance: Hardware Built for Consistency
Beneath its rugged exterior, the PS10-2H2-DD3-AD3 is powered by hardware designed for steady performance. It features a PC/104 operation card—a compact, reliable standard in industrial computing—paired with 32 megabytes of memory. The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) includes 256k of flash memory, enabling quick startup and stable system initialization. At its core is a Pentium MMX processor running at 266 Megahertz, providing ample power for critical tasks like real-time monitoring, data logging, and equipment control in power station operations.

The PS10-2H2-DD3-AD3 Industrial PC by CTC Parker Automation is more than just a piece of hardware—it’s a reliable partner for PS series power stations. With its intuitive 10.4-inch touchscreen, rugged NEMA 4-ready design, flexible connectivity, and steady performance, it’s engineered to enhance efficiency and minimize downtime in industrial settings.
