Overview
SIMATIC Panel PCs are suitable thanks to their high industrial
compatibility both for use in control cabinets, consoles and con-
trol panels, as well as directly on the machine. Typical areas of
application can be found in both production and process auto-
mation.
There is a broad range of robust, high-performance SIMATIC
Panel PCs available for different requirements.
Shared industrial functionality
• High-quality components and modules with a high MTBF
(mean time between failure), which also ensure 24-hour oper-
ation in the extended temperature range.
• High swing/shock capacity of the devices through special
hard-disk suspensions, locked connectors and card retainers
• Rugged housing model with high electromagnetic compatibil-
ity (EMC) and integrated industrial power supplies (also as per
NAMUR)
• Service-friendly device design
• Bright, brilliant displays in different sizes up to 19"
