Industrial Grade Monitors and Panel Computers
Industrial grade displays and panel PCs built to comply with NEMA 4/4X (IP65/66) standards, and available in various mounting designs.
These rugged LCD monitors and Panel PCs are built for human-machine interface (HMI) and operator interface applications throughout manufacturing, production environments, military command and control, marine shipboard controls, and commercial use. Their many hardened standard features and options enable these displays and PPC’s to be used in many locations and conditions unsuitable for consumer grade displays and computer products. VarTech DiamondVue Series products are available as standalone displays, or all-in-one panel PC’s equipped with industrial grade motherboards and processors. Environmental and functional upgrade packages are available to meet virtually any application.
