Partaker A8 17" IP65 All-in-One PC i5-8265U 8GB DDR4 256GB SSD 1TB HDD

Industrial Panel PC

The Partaker A8 is a 17-inch all-in-one computer with an IP65-rated front panel, designed for continuous operation in factories, kiosks or outdoor cabinets. It integrates an Intel Core i5-8265U processor, 8GB DDR4 memory, a 256GB SSD and a 1TB HDD behind a 10-point projected capacitive touchscreen. The fanless aluminium chassis runs silently from 0 to 50°C with the SSD installed.

Upgrade From Legacy Panels

This unit replaces older resistive-touch or non-IP-rated panel PCs that cannot withstand dust, water jets or 24/7 duty cycles. The jump is worth it when an application needs a modern 64-bit Windows 11 Pro environment, dual LAN for redundancy and enough local storage for both OS and historical data logs. Buyers who need a higher-resolution display or a brighter panel for direct sunlight should look elsewhere.

Build Integration

The system mounts through a 380 x 315mm cut-out using the supplied buckle kits and accepts 12V DC from a 100-240V AC adapter. Two SODIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 64GB DDR4-2400, while an mSATA slot, an M.2 2280 NVME/SATA socket and a 2.5-inch SATA bay provide flexible storage growth. A Mini PCIe slot with SIM holder adds wireless connectivity, and dual COM ports connect legacy PLCs or barcode scanners without extra adapters.
