Product Description:

The 5AP1120.121E-000 is a human-machine interface panel produced by B&R Automation within the 5AP Single Touch Automation Panels series. Designed for machine and process control stations, the unit provides onboard touch input and graphic feedback so PLCs or motion controllers can be supervised directly at the cabinet door or operator console. Its form factor combines a widescreen LCD, resistive touch sensor, and sealed front frame to streamline local automation tasks.

Visual clarity is provided by a 12.1 in active area that presents graphics at a resolution of 1280 × 800 pixels, enabling detailed status pages on a moderate footprint. The panel has a 900:1 contrast ratio and uses color TFT technology, so parameter values and alarm symbols remain distinguishable under varied ambient lighting. An LED backlight supplies illumination; this solid-state source reduces heat and simplifies power budgeting compared with fluorescent lamps. Display durability is supported by a coated aluminum frame that stiffens the assembly, while a polyester overlay shields the touch surface from solvents and debris. The panel measures 324 mm in width and 221.5 mm in height, allowing drop-in mounting within standard control enclosures.

The front face has an IP65 protection rating, preventing dust ingress and resisting low-pressure water jets during washdowns. User input relies on analog resistive sensing routed through a serial 12-bit touch controller, providing predictable coordinate resolution even when users wear gloves. The luminous output declines to half after 50,000 hours, allowing long maintenance intervals between backlight replacements. The panel weighs 2,300 g, so standard VESA or panel-clamp fixtures can support it without reinforcement. Internal electronics remain protected by the coated aluminum structure, and the frame thickness determines installation clearances without requiring external ventilation hardware.
