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.

Mounting Flexibility Yields Integration 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 (Optional)

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.

Without Optical Bonding

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.
