Couldn't they slow down the cooling fans? Or was it a passively cooled PC?

Passively cooled. The thing was originally meant for extended use in "extreme" industrial environments (eg at a power substation, inside a wind turbine, etc..), so it had no vents or moving parts at all. Everything was heatpiped to the metal case, which looked like a heatsink.

Similar looking model from same company: https://selinc.com/products/3355/
