Industrial Raspberry Pi for IIoT

Benefit from RPi open OS and Industrial-grade Reliability

To bring a Raspberry Pi to industrial applications, it’s not just put a Raspberry Pi in an industrial case, but much more. Thanks to Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (CM4), which specifically designed for industrial and embedded systems, now raspberry pi be used in IIoT become possibility.

Raspberry Pi for Industrial IoT Ready

 

ELASTEL talented engineers have designed our industry-focused carrier boards to integrate the Raspberry Pi CM4, which provides the core functionality of the Raspberry Pi 4, and allows to create expanded I/O connectivity options to serve specific industry needs.

More than that, leverage our proven passive cooling technology, we designed a whole aluminum enclosure to provide truly IPC-grade solution, not just for structural rigidity, but also as big heatsink dissipating heat from internal components.

 

The result is the products with the capabilities, connectivity and reliability that today's IIoT, Industry 4.0 and edge computing projects need. From a compact IoT gateway or edge computing, to a highly customizable industrial controller, the Elastel proven RPI-based Series is the industrial Raspberry Pi you can rely on.

Since these years, Elastel EG410, EG500  and ElastBox400 industrial Raspberry Pi series has been applied and supporting thousands of IoT projects.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


    1What operating systems are supported?
    Official Raspbian is the most supported and recommended. Ubuntu and OpenWRT are supported with minor tweaks. Windows is not supported.
    2Can I change OS by myself?
    Yes, you can. Normally those OS/Firmware works on consumer Raspberry Pi 4B should works on Elastel products as well. We provide peripheral drivers support in case some ports fail on your own OS.
    3Can I run CODESYS on EG500?
    Yes, CODESYS provide package for Raspberry Pi. Elastel industrial raspberry pi product line inherit the advantages from Raspbian OS, which means over 35,000 software packages or pre-compiled software comes from Raspbian can be used directly on our products, and users can configure and secondary develop on it with a high degree of freedom. Check this archive to refer How CodeSys running on Elastel EG410 & EG500
    4Does EG410/EG500 Support LoRaWAN?
    Yes, EG410 and EG500 support LoRaWAN via mini-PCIe SPI optional LoRaWAN module. The EG410 only provide one mini-PCIe for 4G or LoRaWAN module. While EG500 provide dual mini-PCIe for both working simultaneously.
    5What's the lead time if I placed an order?
    For sample order (less than 5pcs), we will prepare and ship out your orders within 3 working days. Benefit from our previous large CM4 inventory, we can keep the regular supply and price, especially in this global shortage of CM4 supply situation.
