Product Description:

The 5PC720.1505-01 is an industrial operator panel produced by B&R Automation for the 5PC Industrial Automation Units series. The unit combines display electronics, touch sensing, and expansion slots in a single enclosure. It mounts on a cabinet door and serves as the local human-machine interface in automated lines and cells, relaying commands and status between operators and machine controllers.

The display measures 15 in (381 mm) diagonally and renders at a native resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. A luminance of 350 cd/m² maintains readability under typical shop lighting, while a contrast ratio of 1000:1 preserves clear differentiation between graphical elements. Input is accepted through a resistive touch layer, allowing operation with gloved hands or stylus tips. The front bezel carries an IP65 rating, sealing the screen and keys against dust and water jets during washdown procedures. Video reaches the panel through its DVI-I connector, and three rear USB ports support service keyboards, barcode readers, or data keys. Two Ethernet ports provide network redundancy or segmented traffic paths, and the copper links terminate inside the housing to simplify cable routing.

Control cabinet power is supplied at 24 VDC, and the system draws a nominal 3.8 A, letting it share standard 24-volt rails with sensors and relays. Network bandwidth peaks at 100 Mbit/s, matching common switched Ethernet infrastructure used for PLC backbones. Internal expansion follows a 32-bit PCI architecture clocked at 33 MHz, and two slots are available for fieldbus adapters or custom I/O cards when the default interfaces do not cover specific application needs. The panel also provides Ethernet, USB, DVI-I video, and a PCI backplane for mid-range motion, visualization, and data-logging tasks without external hubs or bridges.
