One of the best features of the 1301-Z1 is the glove-friendly projective capacitive touchscreen (PCT) with multi-touch. This makes it easy to use even when you’re wearing gloves, which is essential in hazardous areas. The 19″ 1000 nit display is sunlight viewable perfect for those who need a clear view of what’s going on at all times.

In addition, this HMI has a wide -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F) operating temperature range as standard. This means that it can withstand even the most extreme temperatures. It’s also thin (5″ profile) and lightweight (21.5kg / 47.3lbs), making it easy to transport and install.

There are also several mounting options available, including VESA, yoke, and panel mount and the unit meets EN60068 standards. If you need to monitor things remotely, this HMI also has telemetry options readily available.

IP66/NEMA 4X is the highest international standard for protection against dust and water. Products that are IP66-rated are safe from ingress of dust, even when under high pressure, and can also withstand powerful water jets from all six sides. The “6” in IP66 indicates that the product is completely dust-tight, while the “66” means that it can also withstand high-pressure water jets from all six sides. IP66-rated products are therefore ideal for use in harsh environments where dust and water are a concern. The IP66 rating is particularly important for products that are used outdoors or in other exposed locations. Thanks to its IP66 rating, the 1301-Z1 is a true stand-alone solution.

Finally, the 1301-Z1 has built-in diagnostics so that you can easily troubleshoot any problems that come up. Plus, the clean screen mode makes it easy to keep the screen clean even in dusty environments.
