I have seen several. The Foxboro company makes process instrumentation
and the PCP-88 were designed to run large process systems. I saw them
used in a Pillsbury plant in the dough mixing lines and in several
vegetable oil refineries.

According to this FAQ:

...the PDP-8 was OEM'd to a company called Foxboro Corporation that
re-badged it as the PCP-88.
Has anyone ever seen a PCP-88? I would assume it is functionally and
physically equivalent to a DEC PDP-8?
