B&R announces modular Operator panel
With the Automation Panel 800, ergonomics and individual functions are given top priority.

November 13, 2006 - Automation Panels are used to operate and observe machines and systems. With the design of the Automation Panel 800, B&R continues to expand its successful Automation Panel series. The newest generation of all-around closed display units offers the highest degree of flexibility. Mounting on swing arm systems allows the operator panel to be placed at the most ergonomically convenient position – a decisive advantage for the comfortable operation of the machine.

To provide optimal user-friendliness, the AP800 is equipped with a 15" XGA display with touch screen. This allows complex sequences to be carried out intuitively and logically. Individual expansions for function keys, electromechanical keys, and the E-stop function mean that it can be optimally adapted to the needs of the application. This modular principle is what makes the Automation Panel 800 so unique.

The Smart Display Link (SDL) is used to connect the Automation Panel 800 to the Automation PC 620. Distances of 40 meters are possible between the PC and the display. SDL transfers all communication channels via a single cable – from the display data and touch screen to function keys and LEDs. Even a remote USB interface is available on the keyboard.

The Automation Panel is extremely flat, allowing it to be attached anywhere on the machine. The surface of the housing is protected from sprayed water and meets IP65 protection standards. Housings are also available in stainless steel. These variants have been certified for use in the foodstuffs industry.
