Compact industrial desktop

The Partaker PA-3046 is a fanless mini PC built around an onboard Intel Core i5-8265U processor with 32GB of DDR4 memory and a 512GB SSD. It ships with Windows 10 Pro and is Windows 11 ready, targeting industrial automation, medical equipment, data acquisition and vehicle-mounted applications.

Build integration and I/O

The aluminium chassis accepts a 9-36V DC input through a two-pin phoenix connector, removing the need for a standard ATX power supply. Four Intel i211-AT Gigabit LAN ports, four USB 3.0 ports, HDMI, VGA, audio and up to four configurable COM ports provide extensive connectivity for legacy and modern peripherals without additional expansion cards.

Thermals noise and power

Passive cooling across the aluminium alloy chassis eliminates moving parts, so the system runs silently in noise-sensitive environments. The i5-8265U operates at a 1.6GHz base frequency with a 3.9GHz maximum turbo, keeping thermal output low enough for fanless operation across the supported wide-voltage range.

Questions about this item

At what clock speed does the Core i5-8265U throttle when all four cores run continuously?

The processor base frequency is 1.6 GHz and the maximum turbo is 3.9 GHz; sustained speed under load depends on the thermal capacity of the fanless aluminium chassis.

How much heat and noise does the fanless design produce during 24-hour operation?

The unit uses a passively cooled aluminium alloy case with no moving parts, so it generates zero acoustic noise and dissipates heat silently through the chassis surface.

What external power supply must I already have to run the 2-pin phoenix connector?

A DC source providing 9 to 36 volts, terminated with a compatible 2-pin phoenix plug, is required to power the system.
