Industrial Fanless Mini PC

The Partaker PA-3046 is a compact industrial computer built around an Intel Core i5 8th Generation processor with 16GB of DDR4 memory and a 512GB SATA SSD. Its fanless aluminium chassis dissipates heat silently across a wide 9-36V DC input range, making it suitable for embedded, wall-mounted or VESA deployments. Windows 11 or Linux Ubuntu run out of the box with TPM 2.0 security and watchdog support included.

Deployment Fit

Engineers who need four Gigabit LAN ports, four configurable COM ports and legacy VGA output alongside HDMI will find the I/O mix ready for automation, signage or gateway roles. The single SO-DIMM slot caps memory at 32GB, so workloads demanding larger memory footprints cannot be accommodated. Builders requiring additional high-speed storage lanes beyond the M.2 2280 SATA and 2.5-inch SATA bays should evaluate other platforms.

Deciding Specification

Storage is provided through one M.2 2280 SATA slot and one 2.5-inch SATA bay with RAID 0/1 support, both limited to the SATA protocol. This ceiling determines whether the system can meet the throughput and latency targets of the intended application.

  • Four Intel gigabit LAN ports for reliable connectivity
  • Four COM ports support RS232, RS422 and RS485

Questions about this item

Will the 512 GB SATA SSD need replacement under heavy write workloads?

The 512 GB M.2 2280 SATA SSD is the primary wear item; a second 2.5-inch SATA drive can be added in RAID 1 for redundancy.

What limits sustained performance when the CPU runs at its 15 W TDP inside the fanless chassis?

Passive cooling relies on case surface airflow; the operating ceiling is 50 °C with a commercial drive or 60 °C with an industrial SSD.

How much power does the 12 V 5 A supply draw when the system idles all day?

The 15 W TDP processor and fanless design keep idle consumption low; the 9–36 V input accepts a wide DC range for continuous operation.
