Cincoze Rugged Embedded Computer Facilitates Internet of Energy

[TheLostSwede]

Many countries are facing serious energy shortages, and to counter this problem, many are already actively utilizing renewable energy, but they also urgently need the layout of the internet of energy (IoE) to harness this new power. IoE connects equipment, machines, and systems used in energy production, transmission, and consumption through sensors, controls, and software. IoE delivers power where and when it's needed through smart power storage and distribution, and enables forecasting through big data analysis and machine learning. The DV-1000 high-performance and essential rugged embedded computer in the Cincoze Rugged Computing - DIAMOND product line offers high-performance computing in a compact chassis with flexible expansion and industrial wide temperature support, making it the best choice for IoE applications.

Maximum efficiency for renewable energy requires a network for collecting, storing, and distributing energy power. The DV-1000 is compact, about the size of A5 paper (224 x 162 x 64 mm), making it easy to install in any small outdoor electrical cabinet. The DV-1000 supports a 9th/8th generation Intel Core i7/i5/i3 (Coffee Lake-R S series) processor and up to 32 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz memory, providing the high-efficiency computing power for the real-time processing and analysis of large amounts of data, and meeting the high computing requirements required for IoE.




Rich I/O with Flexible Expansion
The foundation of IoE lies in distributed energy management. Renewable energy sites need many sensors to collect on-site data from power switches, smart meters, thermostats, and other devices. That data must then be analyzed and transmitted over a network to the control center to determine power distribution. The DV-1000 has the most commonly used I/O interfaces needed for IoE applications, including 2x GbE LAN, 2x COM, and 6x USB, which can be connected to various types of sensors and other devices. For further expansion, COM and DIO ports can be added using Cincoze's exclusive CMI modularization technology, and USB 3.0 and GbE LAN can be added using MEC modules. The DV-1000 can fully meet the requirements of various sensor interfaces and networking in IoE.

Robust, Wide Temperature Design
Renewable energy sites are usually outdoors, so the harsh installation environment and sudden temperature changes must be considered. The DV-1000 works in a wide temperature range (-40 to 70°C), supports a wide input voltage (9 to 48VDC), and has passed the military standard MIL-STD-810G shock and vibration tests, proving it can withstand the shock and vibration of harsh environments. If a higher wattage processor is used for high-speed operation, the DV-1000 can be fitted with a dedicated external fan. Finally, to avoid electromagnetic interference in the chassis, the DV-1000 has passed EMC certification, including CE, UKCA, FCC, ICES-003 Class A, and other multinational EMC standards. The reliable quality of the DV-1000 makes it the ideal high-performance choice for edge computing and energy interconnection.

IoE my arse.......Does anybody in their marketing dept have even the slightest clue about the crap they are pushing.....apparently not

Yea, 32GB is fine for the average hardcore gammer/office worker/wfh folks etc, but REAL realtime analysis of large datasets, like that needed for sophisticated powergrid & energy distribution management, requires way moar than that

I wouldn't claim to know. I don't work in the field, and I sort of doubt you do too.

Anyone who actually knows care to chime in? I know NASA probes and such gets by on way less than you'd think (talking like small RISC cores that aren't much more powerful than a 486).

Too complicated

But does it? It's not like one mini PC is going to control, or even monitor, a USA-sized or EU-sized power transmission or power distribution network. It's meant to be deployed locally at a power generation site consisting of, let's count them in the illustration, 15 wind turbines. Or a couple thousand solar panels. Is one PC (not considering redundancy) not enough for that?

Although I am not, nor did I ever claim to be, an expert in the field, I did work in the energy sector (nuke, solar, oil & gas) for many years, even though I am semi-retired now and mainly do consulting work for those industries, so I have considerable insight & familiarity with their computing requirements with respect to data analysis, generational statistics, thermal dynamics, anode & cathode calibrations, hydraulic stress calculations, combustibles & particulate emissions identification, etc etc....

As to the NASA probes, well the Apollo lunar modules used computers equivalent to the early timex electronic watches of that era, so they were (& still are) experts at knowing how to do alot of things with very limited resources they had/have available to them.....

Fair. I was just cautioning against jumping to conclusions. Did not mean to sound antagonistic or anything.
