Certificates have been issued by the American Bureau of Shipping,

Bureau Veritas, DetNorske Veritas,

The computer system has a slot-

RAM memory, arithmetic proces- sor, hard disk, disk drive and pro- cess interface.

Key features for the certification of the industrial PC were its work- manship, materials, documentation and design, insulation voltage, abil- ity to operate above and below volt- age and on temporary system volt- age dips.

The temperature stability of the

PC was tested at 55 degrees C and 95 percent relative air humidity over a period of 100 hours and in dry heat at 70 degrees C with maximum of 50 percent relative air humidity for 16 hours.

The PCD is specially designed for industrial environments and is suited for duty at sea.
