Fanless Industrial PC I27

The Partaker I27 is a fanless industrial desktop built around an Intel Core i3-7167U dual-core processor running at 2.8 GHz with Intel Iris Plus Graphics 650. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4-2400 memory in a single SO-DIMM slot and a 512 GB SSD, running Windows 10 Pro. The rugged black chassis includes mounting ears for fixed installations and offers six COM ports, four USB 3.0 ports, four USB 2.0 ports, dual Intel i213 LAN, VGA, HDMI, GPIO and PS/2. Dual-band Wi-Fi with two antennas is integrated.

Upgrade from older fanless units

This system replaces earlier fanless PCs that used Skylake-based i3-6157U or similar low-power CPUs, delivering a higher base clock of 2.8 GHz and improved Iris Plus 650 graphics. The jump is worth it when you need stronger single-thread performance for legacy industrial software or when you require the richer I/O mix of six serial ports and dual LAN on a passively cooled platform. It is not suited for workloads that demand four or more CPU cores, discrete graphics acceleration or storage arrays beyond the three internal drive bays.

Straightforward bench or DIN-rail install

The unit mounts via its integrated ears and connects through standard DC-in, video, network and serial cables. Memory upgrades use the single SO-DIMM slot up to 32 GB DDR4-2400; storage expands through one mSATA, one M.2 2280 (SATA or NVMe) and one 2.5-inch bay. Common issues include forgetting to enable COM port mode switching in BIOS for RS-422/485 devices and overlooking the need for a correctly rated external DC power supply.
