The advantages of decentralised solutions with HMIs (human-machine interfaces) in the production environment are clear to see: mobility, rapid access to information and ease of operation. Safety, user-friendliness and good design are called for when choosing the most suitable industrial standard command panel.
The Comfort Panel series of HMI panel systems from Rittal meets these needs, with the key feature being versatility.
TFT and CRT screens, machine control panels, LEDs, switches, keys, signal lamps, 'Emergency Stop' buttons and keyboards can be used in a number of combinations. The colour scheme can be adjusted to match the machine's colour scheme and specially designed edges can be applied to the front of the panel to identify the piece of equipment. A mounting channel around the command panel enables a keyboard or accessories such as mousepad supports, handles or clipboards to be installed quickly and easily. Also, the front frame is finished off with an all-round soft profiled edge, protecting the user from potential injury.
Units with an installation depth of 113 mm are available as a standard dimension, and with the aid of the extension profile, installation depths of 269 and 425 mm can also be attained. The Comfort Panel is characterised by a universal and flexible mounting system for the front panels, the Penta2 attachment. The user can choose from three options: the panel can be fastened with threaded bolts, by drilled holes or by screw clamp technology. The operator console can be fastened from behind or from the front with five different types of claws. This allows all conventional, commercially available control units to be mounted directly within the enclosure.
