Industrial Panel PCs Renew HMI Controls with Enhanced Graphics, Interoperability, and Ruggedness

NEXCOM's next generation industrial panel PCs (IPPCs) renew HMI controls with enhanced graphics, interoperability, and ruggedness. Leveraging quad-core CPU upgrade, fieldbus, and EtherCAT support, the IPPC series improves operational efficiency with accurate, speedy visual processing, and integration flexibility. Built to meet HMI safety requirements for petrochemical and steel industries, the panel PCs are compatible with UL 61010-1 and UL 61010-2-201 standards.

Offering various screen sizes in 15.6, 18.5, and 21.5 inches, the panel PCs still remain the same cutout size, aimed for simple upgrades with minimal disruption. Upgraded with Intel® Celeron® processor J1900, the IPPC series' improved computing and graphics performance allows accurate HMI controls with faster 3D visual processing, video transcoding, data exchange, and responsiveness.

 

The panel PCs provide ready-to-use controls and programming freedom for simply deployment. CODESYS Control RTE and CODESYS SoftMotion supports offer integrated I/O controls, machine functions, and visualization. JMobile Suite, on the other hand, offers HMI design freedom and remote supervision over smart devices with built-in HMI symbols, widgets, schedulers, and web-browser features.

 

To help build cyber-physical systems, the panel PCs are equipped with two mini-PCIe slots for 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi, fieldbus, and EtherCAT expansions, allowing seamless integration between operational technology and information technology with PLCs, SCADA, PMS applications, and Internet connections.

 

To meet HMI electric shock standards for safe operations in petrochemical and steel industries, the panel PCs follow UL 61010-1 and UL 61010-2-201 standards. The fanless IPPC series also has an IP66-rated aluminum front bezel to provide protection against airborne dust, chemical substances and water ingress for enhanced reliability and ruggedness.

 

Remote power on/off hardwire functionality is also added to the IPPC series for the convenience of power switching on embedded enclosures.
