Tyco Electronics Offers IP66 AND NEMA-Compliant Touchmonitors

By DE Editors

Tyco Electronics (Harrisburg, PA) now combines high-performance LCD panels with its Elo TouchSystemstouch technologies to create, with very short lead times, custom large-screen, wide-aspect industrial touchmonitors. The monitors have models developed to be compliant with NEMA 1, 2, 4, 4X, 5, 12, 12K and 13,  as well as IP66 standards.

The custom solution touchmonitors, ranging in size from 15-in. through 32-in. can be used in environmentally challenging environments such as wind turbines,  paint shops, marine and other applications. The industrial monitors, offering wide-viewing angles from 160 to 178 degrees, are supplemented by brightness as high as 1400 nits. The new large-screen, wide-aspect monitors include a choice of Elo TouchSystems touch technologies, including IntelliTouch surface wave,  surface capacitive, AccuTouch 4-wire resistive and the innovative Acoustic Pulse Recognition (APR).

The variety of Elo TouchSystems touch technologies allows customers to select the type of touchmonitor that is most appropriate for their specific application and method of interaction with the monitor. An appropriate touch technology can be selected so that virtually any material (gloves, bare fingers, pens, styli,  etc.) can be used to actuate the touchscreens under a broad spectrum of conditions, high ambient light conditions, water on the screen, extreme heat or cold.

The Elo TouchSystems Customs Solutions Group can produce touchmonitors to suit custom configurations and customer requirements including harsh environments.
