The NI cRIO-9022 is a rugged real-time controller engineered for deterministic control and monitoring in harsh industrial environments. Built around a 533 MHz Freescale MPC8347 PowerPC processor with 256 MB DDR2 RAM and 2 GB nonvolatile storage, it delivers reliable automation without active cooling. The fanless design and fault-tolerant file system ensure data integrity across extended deployments from -20 °C to 55 °C.
