Proficy Historian IPC
Lower your total cost of ownership with simplified data management
Benefits
•t Lower total cost of ownership
•t Improved performance with easy data
collection
•t Reduced implementation time
•t More power at the point of control
•t Maximized reliability and uptime

In today’s fast, lean, and competitive environment, leveraging the power of industrial
data is more imperative than ever. Manufacturing and other processing industries need
powerful controls and the ability to turn
data into actionable information to boost
efficiency, drive profitability, and lower costs.
GE’s Proficy* Historian IPC is a simplified
data management solution that connects
your machines and turns masses of
raw data into actionable information. It
combines our industry-leading Proficy Historian software with our powerful, rugged
RXi IPC-XP industrial computer, providing
a simplified solution that helps lower your
total cost of ownership.
It features a compact size with powerful
data acquisition capabilities, reliability, and
scalability—all in one solution.
Data management made easy
•tSimple implementation with
pre-installed software
t There’s no need to spend valuable time
buying individual products and installing
the software. Instead, our powerful RXi
IPC-XP is preinstalled with Microsoft®
Windows® 7 operating system and
Proficy Historian software.

•tCompact, rugged design
The IPC’s smaller, ruggedized design has
clear advantages over operating Proficy
Historian on a standard PC. Proficy
Historian IPC can be installed with the
machine controls to save space and
reduce wiring complexity, putting power
at the point of control.
•tHigh-performance data acquisition
The solution delivers quick time-to-value for
collecting real-time production and process
information. Proficy Historian’s patented
compression algorithms enable greater
volumes of data to be stored in the IPC’s
hard drive than competitive data historians,
without sacrificing the data’s integrity.
•tDesigned-in lifecycle management
To extend the lifecycle of your technology
investment, Proficy Historian IPC leverages
COM Express technology. So when the
computing power becomes obsolete, you
can exchange the COM Express module
for a higher-powered replacement,
leaving the rest of the IPC and wiring
intact instead of having to replace it.
