SEL SEL-3360 Computing Platform

SEL-3360

Computing Platform

The SEL-3360 is a versatile computing platform built to withstand harsh environments in utility and industrial applications. It can run the hardened SEL Blueframe or SEL RTAC operating systems, run versions of Linux and Microsoft Windows, or run bare-metal or hosted hypervisors.

Designed, manufactured, and tested to the same IEC standards as our protective relays, every SEL computing platform provides Dependable Computation for Critical Infrastructure® and comes with a standard ten-year warranty.

Industrial and substation automation and computing systems require 24/7 availability and ease of service when necessary. SEL computing platforms are designed with a focus on RAS—reliability, availability, and serviceability. The SEL-3360 meets these requirements with the following:

Reliability

SEL designs, manufactures, and tests every computing platform in house. Our computing platforms have one of the highest MTBF ratings in the industry, and they are backed by a ten-year warranty.

Availability

Designed to keep your system operational for longer periods, the SEL-3360 can be powered by dual external SEL-9331 Power Supply modules connected in parallel, which can be energized from two independent sources. The two-slot 2.5" SATA drive bay can be loaded with solid-state drives (SSDs) and supports RAID 0 and 1 configurations. The unique SEL system monitor (SysMon), Backup and Recovery Tool (BaRT), and watchdog timer maximize system availability by alerting users of potential issues and minimizing downtime with automatic recovery from system crashes.

Serviceability

Intel AMT provides high serviceability. Users can perform diagnostics, install software or OSs, and even command a reboot remotely. Additionally, SEL SysMon logs events specific to the installed system to aid in quick recovery.

Robust Hardware Design

SEL computing platforms are designed for maximum reliability, with no fans or moving parts, and are backed by a ten-year warranty. The SEL-3360 has a durable power supply, an advanced thermal management system, error-correcting memory, and single-level cell (SLC) SSDs to provide reliable operation in the harshest environments.

Reliable Operation

Install the SEL-3360 in harsh environments. It is designed to withstand 15 kV electrostatic discharge, fast transients, conducted and radiated emissions, up to 15 g shock, seismic and sustained vibration, voltage surge, and large magnetic field disturbances.

Multiple Power Supply Options

The SEL-3360E comes with an internal SEL-9331 Power Supply, while the SEL-3360S can be powered by an external SEL-9331 or any other 12 Vdc source. Two models of the SEL-9331 are available: high voltage (120/240 Vac or 125/250 Vdc) and low voltage (48 Vdc).

Watchdog Functionality

Monitor and alarm for numerous system services and conditions with an embedded controller that provides an extra level of computer system reliability. The embedded controller includes a programmable system monitor interface and alarm configuration.

High-Performance Intel Quad-Core Processors

The SEL-3360 features Intel multicore processors with Intel vPro technology and up to 64 GB ECC RAM, providing the power you need for any application.

Multiple I/O Ports

Directly connect to local peripherals and high-speed network interfaces with two Ethernet ports, audio I/O, six USB 3.1 ports, three digital video ports, and two serial ports.

Flexibility With PCIe Slots

The SEL-3360E provides two PCI Express expansion slots which allows you to add additional serial ports, Ethernet ports, I/O, or other PCI Express cards that your application requires.

OS Choices

You can purchase the SEL-3360 as hardware-only or configure it to run a variety of Linux or Microsoft Windows OSs to provide extreme flexibility and functionality along with enhanced security features.

Large Storage Capacity

Choose from three SSD options to suit your application:

SLC for the highest endurance and reliability.

Pseudo-SLC (pSLC) for a higher capacity but reduced endurance.

3D triple-level cell (TLC) for the highest capacity and a lower cost but reduced endurance.

With a two-drive SSD bay, you can create one large volume or configure a typical RAID system that provides redundant and more reliable storage.
