Computer.-The Philco TRANSAC, Type S-1000, is a large scale electronic computer compactly designed for scientific application in research laboratories, various industries, and universities. Its new speeds and extensive command structure provide for the solution of lengthy and complex mathematical problems.
Philco's pioneering leadership in airborne control systems has been carried over into the design of the wholly transistorized, printed wiring TRANSAC s-1000.
The highly developed and extremely reliable Philco transistors, unlike vacuum tubes, require no periodic replacement.
The transistor circuitry eliminates bulky insulation and the heavy power supply equipment associated with vacuum tube devices.
Generating comparatively little heat, the S-1000 requires only a small fraction of the air conditioning equipment normally required for large scale computers.
In fact, only the amount of cooling normally needed for human comfort is sufficient.
The TRANSAC computer entails no installation work or special wiring. It may be plugged into existing 110 volt, 60 cycle outlets and is equipped with castors, making it highly mobile. Thus extreme compactness, light weight, low power consumption, high speed and reliability are now realized in this desk model computer. These unique features, plus the proven system philosophy and command structure, provide a new and powerful tool for science and research.
