Posted 1 February 2019

Kontron presents the KISS 1U Short V3 CFL Rackmount PC, a particularly compact member of the KISS product family for demanding industrial applications, suitable for use in industrial automation, process control, high-end image processing and for SCADA/MES applications as well as in operator-related areas such as process control and the medical environment.

Based on 8th Generation Intel Core i7/i5/i3 processor with Intel C246 Express chipset, the new, space-saving short version of the KISS (“Kontron Industrial Silent Server”) uses a modular design in a 44-millimeter-high and 350-millimeter-deep 1U chassis.

The new KISS 1U Short V3 CFL runs Windows 10 LTSB or Ubuntu Linux and has two USB 2.0 interfaces on the front, four USB 3.0 interfaces on the rear, two Gigabit LAN ports and a DVI-D port.

Thanks to removable drives and various expansion slots, the system can be flexibly adapted to customer requirements. The rackmount system can operate in a temperature range from 0°C to plus 50°C during continuous operation.
