Phoenix Contact has expanded its range of VMT 3000 panel PCs to include a device with a 26 cm (10,4 in) high resolution display with IP65 protection. This display was specifically developed for use under harsh industrial conditions and has a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels.
The panel PCs have an attractive enclosure manufactured out of solid die-cast aluminum. As a result of the dust protected and waterproof enclosure with IP65 protection, these panels are weather resistant and are insensitive to humidity and moisture. They can also be used in extreme temperatures ranging from 20 to
55°C, which allows them to be employed outdoors as well as in refrigeration systems. Another option is a sunlight readable display which allows them to be used in direct sunlight.
The panels are especially energy efficient thanks to their Intel-Atom platform, a combination of a highly integrated chipset and a power saving processor. The Atom processor can either be clocked at 1,1 GHz or 1,6 GHz, and has a thermal design power (TDP) of 2,5 W. The lower power consumption is also noticeable in the lower amount of heat generated. The device does not require a fan. This means that users get a fully fledged industrial PC equipped with an industrial grade touch screen and all of the relevant interfaces. It can be used for years as an energy efficient operating console for machine related use.
