Detailed Description
Allen-Bradley PanelView touch screens are a renowned family of Human-Machine Interface (HMI) graphic terminals from Rockwell Automation, designed for industrial automation environments. These rugged, panel-mounted devices enable operators to monitor, control, and visualize machine processes through intuitive graphical interfaces. The series includes models like PanelView Plus 6, PanelView Plus 7, PanelView 800, and PanelView Component C600, offering flexibility with touchscreen or keypad inputs. They run on embedded operating systems such as Windows CE, supporting customizable graphics, alarms, trends, and data logging for seamless integration with PLCs and other control systems. Known for their durability in harsh conditions, these terminals provide open-platform flexibility and compatibility with FactoryTalk View software for programming.
Product Parameters
The Allen-Bradley PanelView series varies by model, but key parameters for major touch screen variants are summarized below. All models feature TFT color displays, resistive touch technology (with options for capacitive in newer versions), and IP65/NEMA ratings for environmental protection.
| Model Series | Display Sizes | Resolution | Memory (RAM/Flash) | Communication Ports | Power Supply | Operating System | Touch Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PanelView Plus 6 | 4–15 inches | 320×240 to 1024×768 (model-dependent) | 512 MB RAM / 512 MB Flash (standard) | Ethernet (RS-232/RS-485 optional) | 18–30V DC or 85–264V AC | Windows CE 6.0 | Resistive touchscreen (with keypad option) |
| PanelView Plus 7 | 4–19 inches | 480×272 to 1280×1024 | 1 GB RAM / 512 MB Flash (performance version) | Dual Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485, USB | 24V DC | Windows CE | Resistive touchscreen (conformal coat/stainless options available) |
| PanelView 800 | 4–10 inches | 480×272 to 800×480 | 256 MB RAM / 32 MB Flash | Ethernet, RS-232, USB | 24V DC | VxWorks (firmware-based) | Resistive touchscreen or keypad |
| PanelView Component C600 | 5.7–10.1 inches | 320×240 to 800×480 | 128 MB RAM / 64 MB Flash | Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485, USB | 24V DC | Non-configurable (pre-loaded apps) | Analog resistive touchscreen (1M press rating) |
These parameters ensure compatibility with micro to mid-sized controllers like MicroLogix and CompactLogix.
Product Advantages
- Rugged Durability: Designed for harsh industrial environments with NEMA Type 4X/IP66 ratings, conformal coatings, and stainless steel enclosures (e.g., in Performance models), resisting dust, moisture, and vibrations.
- Flexible Connectivity: Built-in Ethernet (including Device Level Ring for redundancy), RS-232/RS-485, and USB ports support seamless integration with Allen-Bradley PLCs and third-party devices; dual Ethernet in Plus 7 enhances network reliability.
- Intuitive Interface: High-resolution color TFT displays with 18-bit graphics and customizable screens via FactoryTalk View Studio; supports third-party apps like Microsoft Internet Explorer for extended functionality.
- Scalability and Performance: Options from compact 4-inch screens for simple tasks to 19-inch widescreens for complex visualizations; Performance versions offer higher memory (1 GB RAM) and advanced VNC remote access.
- Ease of Use and Maintenance: Plug-and-play touchscreen replacements available; long lifecycle (over 50,000 hours in some components) and backward compatibility reduce downtime and costs compared to OEM repairs.
- Security and Efficiency: Embedded security features, energy-efficient operation, and open-platform OS allow for custom applications, improving operator productivity in demanding settings.
Precautions (Attention Matters)
- Environmental Limits: Operate within -10°C to +50°C ambient temperature and avoid direct sunlight or corrosive atmospheres; use conformal-coated models in humid or chemical-exposed areas.
- Installation: Ensure proper grounding to prevent electrostatic discharge; mount in panels with adequate ventilation to avoid overheating. For DC-powered units, use regulated 24V supplies to prevent voltage spikes.
- Maintenance: Clean touchscreens with soft, lint-free cloths and isopropyl alcohol only—avoid abrasive materials. Regularly update firmware (e.g., PanelView 800 requires v7.011+ for advanced features) via Rockwell’s tools to patch vulnerabilities.
- Safety: Disable unused ports to minimize cybersecurity risks; follow lockout/tagout procedures during servicing. Touchscreens have a finite press life (e.g., 1 million actuations), so monitor for wear and replace overlays promptly.
- Compatibility: Verify firmware and software versions match controllers; obsolete models like PanelView 550/600 may lack support—migrate to Plus series for ongoing updates.
Product Applications
Allen-Bradley PanelView touch screens excel in industrial settings requiring reliable operator interfaces:
- Machine Control: Real-time monitoring and adjustment of discrete manufacturing equipment, such as assembly lines or packaging machines.
- Material Handling: Visualization of conveyor systems, sortation, and warehouse automation for efficient flow tracking.
- Process Control: Integration with SCADA systems in water treatment, food & beverage, or pharmaceutical plants for trend analysis and alarm management.
- OEM Panels: Custom HMIs for small to mid-sized controllers in automotive, HVAC, and energy sectors.
- Remote Monitoring: VNC-enabled access for off-site diagnostics in oil & gas or utilities, supporting micro-controller compatibility for compact setups.
