Reinforced for Aggressive Washdowns

The SIO Series meet IP66/IP69K ratings to sustain high-pressure, high-temperature system washdowns required for hygienic and aseptic environments. Industrial-grade M12 locking I/O connectors prevent damaging water and dust intrusion in hygienic washdowns.

Sustained Operation During Washdowns

The SIO Series feature native touchscreen enable/disable controls allowing the device to remain powered throughout intense high-pressure washdowns. The SIO maintains automation, monitoring and critical control functions, allowing facility operations to continue during cleanings.

Ruggedized Stainless Steel Pressure Valve

An automatic pressure valve keeps the SIO safe by balancing the internal pressure that may be affected by external environmental factors. The valve regulates internal pressure and acts as a safety measure, protecting the PC from damage, preventing failures in sudden pressure increases, and ensuring overall reliability and safety for the SIO in harsh industrial deployments.

Rugged Stainless Steel:
Low-Maintenance Durability

Rugged Type 316 stainless steel enclosure equips the SIO Series with lasting corrosion resistance against a vast range of caustic substances. The polished brushed surface retains its smart appearance throughout rigorous industrial deployments and concentrated washdowns.

Resilient, Responsive Touch Technologies

Single-touch five-wire resistive or multi-touch PCAP touchscreens offer precise, natural interaction for unique workspace conditions. Both touch technologies accurately register gloved hand activity for industrial use-cases, and 7H hardness glass presents exceptional scratch resistance against grit, tool and sharp object contact. Optional display features like high-brightness (1,000+ nit) panels aid visibility in glaring environments, while optical bonding preserves clarity and vibrancy in humid areas.

Straight AC-in Power Eases Deployment

The SIO Series receive power directly from AC sources via M12 connector, forgoing additional electrical converters with their waterproof NEMA-rated enclosure. The straightforward power delivery design simplifies integration into in-line automation facilities and factory infrastructures systems.

Flexible Mounting Options

The SIO Washdown Touchscreen Computer integrates smoothly into workspace systems through several mounting options. The SIO may be situated on yoke or VESA mounts, or within recessed panel spaces, affording countless deployment options for industrial applications.

Optical Bonding Enhancement

Optical bonding fills the vulnerable air gap between the touch panel and LCD panel with durable resin. Industrial displays with optical bonding have better durability and brighter images. Optical bonding also increases touch accuracy and readability by reducing glare in bright settings and preventing condensation in humid, damp environments.

  • <0.3% loss of surface light reflection and intra panel reflection compared to 5%-20% air bonding
  • Low light reflection with high transmittance for ultra-clarity
  • Reduce light loss and saves power to reach same brightness
  • Strong and reliable multi-touch performance
  • Eliminate dust and debris after assembly

High-Brightness Panels (Optional)

Strong lighting can overpower even the more advanced displays’ output. SIO’s optional 1,000+ nit high-brightness panels boost overall display luminance to improve legibility in glaring environments.

Industrial Applications

Food and Beverage Processing

The food and beverage industries are heavily regulated for health and sanitation compliance. Washdown touchscreen computers in the processing environment perform many system management and control functions while sustaining contact with chlorides and corrosives. Simple cleanup and thorough washdown tolerance must be factored into hardware design.

Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Pharmaceutical plants closely monitor system conditions and regularly wash down equipment and workspaces to ensure product purity. Washdown touchscreen computers perform a variety of critical control and automation functions like temperature regulation and quantity measurements in an easily-sterilized all-in-one device.

Cleanrooms

Intricate electronics manufacturers and scientific research facilities demand immaculate cleanliness to control harmful particulate introduction. Stainless steel washdown touchscreen computers integrated into cleanroom systems provide a robust system interface capable of withstanding extreme physical factors and intense decontamination regimens.

Oil And Gas

Stainless steel washdown touchscreen computers play a significant role in the oil and gas industry due to the demanding and often hard environmental conditions prevalent in field operations. These touchscreen computers perform various functions in these fields, from data access, monitoring control, and data logging. Touch panel PCs are then designed to withstand extreme temperatures, humidity, dust, and potential explosive atmospheres commonly found in oil and gas fields.
