APLEX Technology FABS-9XXA Series of Food-Grade HMIs

APLEX Technology’s FABS-9XXA Series of Food Safety Grade Stainless Steel HMIs are aimed at improving the safety and productivity of the food and beverage processing industry.

They are panel PCs powered by 6th/7th Generation Intel Core i3/i5/i7 processors and are available in sizes ranging from 12.1 to 21.5″. They are compliant with EN-1672-2, constructed with a default SUS304 or optional SUS316 stainless steel front panel, and rated with IP66/IP69K water protection.

The HMIs are designed to meet EN1672-2 hygiene requirements. Their front panel has an edge design which is formulated to allow water flow through the charmed edge while preventing water seepage into the inner structure of the panel PC for easy and comprehensive cleaning. The adhesive materials used for edge lamination and the HMI’s sealing sponge meet FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 for food safety assurance, and the touch glass is tested by the SGS group.

The HMIs are panel-mountable and can be easily installed in facilities or equipment. They are equipped with strong communication networks and I/O expansion capabilities, capable of conforming to specific customer requirements while giving good connectivity and integration.

Users can standardise their procedures, ensure accuracy across their processes, perform real-time inspections and measure their food safety levels.
