Beijer Electronics Exter T150-st stainless steel HMI

Beijer Electronics has added the T150-st to its Exter series of operator panels. The Exter T150-st has an acid-resistant stainless steel construction, so it is suited to those situations where acid-based cleaning agents are used.

The streamlined construction, and no foil or labels on the front, also means that there are fewer minute cracks and lines in the surfaces where bacteria and other pathogens might otherwise hide, so it’s much easier to keep clean. The front of the T150-st is also waterproof, making it easy to clean with high-power water jets without the risk of water leaking into the operator panel itself. It is therefore suitable for use throughout the food and beverage, pharmaceuticals and oil and gas industries.

It offers interoperability with all major automation brands (more than 100 drivers are available) and it is claimed that getting the first application running can be achieved in under 10 minutes. A wide selection of ready-made objects and functions enables users to create applications graphically, and projects are created in a visual environment that gives a complete overview in the project manager so it is possible to see what is happening in the process.

The Exter series includes keypad and touch-screen panels with displays ranging from 3.5 to 15″.
