Turck has expanded its HMI portfolio with new models for food and beverage applications and with high brightness displays
TX700 HMI/PLC Series Expanded
12/20 – Turck now offers special versions of its HMI/PLC devices for applications in the food and beverage industry and for use in bright ambient light
Mülheim, November 12, 2020Turck has expanded its TX700 HMI/PLC device series with two new variants for food and beverage applications (TX700FB, Food&Beverage) and two variants with high brightness displays for sunlight readability (TX700HB, High Brightness). The FB devices are available in 7” and 15” screen diagonals and the HB variants in 7” and 10” screen diagonals.
The FB devices were developed to comply with hygienic design requirements (DIN EN1672-2, EHEDG/FDA 21 CFR 177.2006) and come with a stainless steel front with a polyester coating. The device front has been designed with protection to IP69K so that the devices are waterproof at high pressure up to 80 °C. The FB products are also resistant to acids and chemicals.
The HB devices with their extra bright display up to 800 Cd/m² are particularly suitable for outdoor applications. The displays are manufactured with liquid bonding (LOCA) – a screen bonding process that improves screen contrast and increases brightness through reduced reflection and refraction. The HB devices with the full metal housing are resistant to mechanical influences.
The TX100, TX200, TX500 and TX700 device series enables Turck to offer a flexible range of HMI devices for visualization, as well as HMIs with Codesys PLCs and a cloud connection, thus opening up the possibility of new application fields.
