Rockwell Automation Allen Bradley PanelView 800 graphic terminals

Rockwell Automation has launched the Allen Bradley PanelView 800 family of graphic terminals, a space-saving range which reduces boot-up time and increases installation flexibility.

The terminals, available in 4″, 7″ and 10″ display sizes, feature an 800 MHz CPU processor, up to 256 MB of flash and dynamic memory to reduce boot-up time, making it two times faster than the previous PanelView Component terminal. The terminals also offer improved touch-screen responsiveness and can be configured in portrait and standard landscape mode for greater installation flexibility.

These graphic terminals are suitable for meeting control and visualisation requirements in a range of simple, stand-alone applications, such as pump stations, packaging machines, labellers and stretch-wrap machines.

The terminals are designed for use with the Allen Bradley Micro800 and MicroLogix control systems. The high-resolution screens with LED backlights can display up to 65,536 colours. Built-in Ethernet and serial communications ports (RS232, RS422 and RS485) support easier controller connectivity, while USB and microSD ports make file transfers easier. The terminals are also certified for Class 1, Division 2 hazardous locations.
