The ACB200 Rugged Mission Computer combines powerful processing with a compact, sealed aluminium chassis.  It meets the strict Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) requirements of modern defence and industrial systems.


Key Features

  • High-performance Intel® i7 Gen 12 or better processor – Delivers strong computing power for mission-critical data processing, sensor fusion, and control tasks.

  • Compact, rugged form factor – Approximately 15.75 cm × 11.43 cm × 4.06 cm and ~1.13 kg, perfect for tight spaces in aircraft, vehicles, or portable systems.

  • Fanless, convection-cooled design – Fully sealed aluminium enclosure eliminates moving parts, reducing maintenance and preventing dust, sand, and moisture ingress.

  • Flexible I/O and connectivity – Supports USB 2.0/3.0, RS-232/422, dual Gigabit Ethernet, VGA output, with optional WiFi, GPS, and frame grabber modules.

  • Low power consumption – Typical operation between 11–14 W, optimised for low-SWaP defence and industrial deployments.

  • Rugged MIL-STD compliance – Designed to MIL-STD-810 (shock 40 g, vibration 2.2 grms, operating temperature –10 °C to +55 °C, optional –40 °C) and MIL-STD-461E (EMI/EMC).

  • Environmental resilience – Fully sealed against dust, sand, and salt fog; reliable up to 40,000 ft altitude and in 95% non-condensing humidity.


Key Benefits

  • Reliable in extreme environments – To begin with, the ACB200 withstands temperature extremes, high altitude, vibration, and shock.  Ensuring dependable performance in mission-critical settings.

  • Outstanding compute density – Moreover, it delivers high-performance processing in a small, lightweight package.  Therefore, making it ideal for unmanned systems, mobile command posts, or vehicle and aircraft consoles.

  • Low maintenance and long life – In addition, the fanless design and solid-state storage reduce wear points.  Therefore, extending service life and improving mean time between failures (MTBF).

  • Flexible integrationFinally, wide voltage input (9–36 VDC), rich I/O, and configurable connectors. Simplify installation in new builds or retrofit projects.


Applications

The ArgonFDS ACB200 Rugged Computer is ideal for mission-critical applications that demand powerful, compact, and reliable computing, including:

  • Defence & AerospaceMission processing in fixed-wing and rotary aircraft, UAVs, and UGVs.  As well as sensor fusion and C4ISR control systems.

  • Naval & MaritimeBridge and shipboard computing where salt fog, vibration, and humidity require military-grade durability.

  • Ground VehiclesTactical command, weapons control, or surveillance processing inside armoured or utility vehicles.

  • Industrial & Harsh EnvironmentsOil & gas monitoring, mining equipment, or remote industrial automation where ruggedness and reliability are essential.
