Slim industrial-grade LCD monitor

September 2006 Industrial Computer Hardware

Compared to other industrial LCD monitors, Advantech's FPM-2150G appeals to system integrators by its focus on reducing overall size, thickness and weight. At 4,5 kg and only 48 mm depth, the monitor has an attractive and functional design that also eases integration and installation. The FPM-2150G is one of the smallest and slimmest industrial grade monitors in the market today, and it mounts easily on a panel, wall, rack, desktop or VESA arm.

The FPM-2150G, with its stainless steel chassis and Al-Mg front-panel, meets IP65 certification and is resistant to heat, vibration and electromagnetic interference. Its 15" XGA colour TFT LCD screen is designed for industrial applications, however, a standard VGA connector makes it compatible with commercial workstations as well as a wide range of industrial computers. There is also a PS/2 connector that makes it possible to connect a mouse or keyboard. If a user-friendlier user interface is preferred, the 8-wire resistive touchscreen is ideal.

An anti-glare and high-brightness LCD screen is easy on the eye for operators, while the on-screen-display function makes it convenient to adjust the display factors and turn the backlight on/off. No keyboard or external interface device is necessary.

FPM-2150G is well suited for system control interfaces.
