IBM 7546 Industrial Computer — a ruggedized Micro Channel OS/2 system, originally deployed as part of a PT2090-series equipment installation.
This is an IBM Type 7546 Industrial Computer, IBM’s ruggedized Micro Channel platform built for plant-floor deployment (wide temperature range, shock/vibration rated). Serial number 7546-23A0338. If you’re sourcing a compatible spare for an existing PT2090 installation, this unit matches that hardware generation.
Tested and confirmed working. Powered on and verified booting to OS/2 with the original vendor application software intact and running (see photos of the unit powered on and running). Sold as-is; no data or software warranty is implied. If you have specific requirements around the installed software, message before buying and I’m happy to answer what I can.
