Advantech IPPC-5211WS IP69K touch panel computer

To satisfy the stringent cleanliness requirements of industries such as food and beverage manufacturing and pharmaceuticals, Advantech has announced the release of a fully sealed IP69K rated stainless steel multi-touch panel PC.

The 21.5″ widescreen IPPC-5211WS touch-panel computer is the latest model to use the Intel Celeron J1900 Quad Core 2.0 GHz Processor. Featuring iDoor Technology, a truly flat screen and multiple lockable IO ports, the PC is able to operate in a wide range of temperatures.

The stainless steel corrosion-proof chassis and SGS certified IP69K waterproofing allow the product to be cleaned using water, harsh detergents and acidic/alkaline disinfectants with temperatures of up to 80°C and pressure of up to 30 Bar. These qualities ensure that the IPPC-5211WS satisfies the sanitation requirements of food manufacturing, clinical areas and chemical or pharmaceutical laboratories.

The PC uses regular connectors and a special clip for the USB port and is waterproofed when using the optional flange adaptor, with Rittal Specification connector, which seals the IO ports from water ingress and allows the PC to be attached to foot and arm systems for added flexibility.

With an Intel HD Graphics processor, and a ratio of 16:9, the models are suitable for displaying more graphics on the screen. The flat and seamless design of the PC provides easier maintenance and avoids mis-touches, even when wearing gloves.

4 GB DDR3L SDRAM is included, and the devices can be used with a variety of Microsoft Windows operating systems and Advantech software applications such as WebAccess, Panel Express and SUSIAccess.
