What is the function of the P11-PC104 for a P1 or a P1H power station in the Parker CTC Automation Series?
The P11-PC104 is an installation kit for use in the case of a single PC/104 card.

Each of these three kits are categorized as P1 hardware accessories that can be either user or factory installed.
The PC/104s are designed for small, rugged environments where stacking together boards to minimize utilized space is ideal. The original PC/104 is about 90 by 96 mms. Each PC/104 has four mounting holes near the corners of the module and are able to be mounted on to of each other using standoffs. This is also beneficial because it minimizes the potential of any flexion of the board under operating circumstances. This additional hardware option is beneficial to the P1 CTC Parker Automation power stations by increasing the variability of the series to allow the end user to customize their power station to their individual application for enhanced efficacy and results. The CTC Parker Automation P11-PC104 PC/104 Installation Kit is used to this purpose when the user desires a single PC/104 card.
