Introducing your PC to its personal bodyguard. When it comes to a fight, A Armagard PC enclosure will always come out on top. We hope the following examples speak for themselves.

Forklift Impact
British Sugar appreciated the value of an Armagard PC Enclosure when a two and a half tonne Forklift truck knocked over €8,520's worth of computer equipment at its Bury St. Edmunds factory. The PC and €7,100 label printer - protected inside an Armagard Compact All-In-One PC Enclosure - rebooted immediately after the accident enabling operations to continue with only a minor interruption.

Roof collapse 1
A Armagard All-In-One withstood the impact of a 6" dia iron pipe falling from the ceiling of a textiles mill. As you can see, the PC and monitor were undamaged allowing operations to continue uninterrupted. Had the enclosure collapsed, the €28,400 device controlling the loom behind would also have been destroyed and production severely affected.

Washdown & Corrosion
In this fish processing factory, Armagard Stainless Desktops successfully protect PCs from daily hosedown and a high salt environment. You can see the daily deposits on the side of the enclosure.

Roof collapse 2
Armagard Stainless PC and Printer Enclosures after a roof collapse at Northern Foods. All computer equipment inside the enclosures survived unscathed and was relocated to a temporary production line. Less robust enclosures would have collapsed on impact.

Freezing Temperatures
In the frozen storage areas at Birds Eye Walls, Armagard PC Enclosures allow PCs to operate in an ambient temperature of -25C. An Armagard HEATPLUS module maintains a constant temperature inside each enclosure.

Electrical Spikes
A powerful spike in the plant electricity supply at Johnson Matthey caused irrepairable damage to three weighing stations worth €8,946. Two of the stations were offline for a day whilst the third could not be replaced for 12 days.The disruption to the 24/7 operation and financial loss was described as "significant". Seven other weighing stations installed in Armagard PC enclosures survived undamaged due to the surge-protection fitted as standard.
