Product Description:

The 5PC720.1505-K06 is an industrial operator panel in the 5PC Industrial Automation Units series from B&R Automation. It merges display, touch input, and processing resources so production staff can issue commands, review cycle data, and acknowledge alarms directly on the machine. Mounted flush in cabinet doors or on support arms, it forms the local human-machine interface that links programmable controllers to on-site operators, while its compact footprint and sealed front foil let it operate beside conveyors, packaging stations, or robotic cells without extra enclosures.

The screen spans 15" (381 mm) on the diagonal, supplying ample space for trend charts and status widgets. An XGA resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels delivers clear symbol edges without scaling artifacts, and a palette of 10 million colors keeps gradients and alarm tones distinct. The module uses TFT color technology, which helps maintain consistent contrast across wide viewing angles. Operator input is captured by an analog resistive touch layer, which registers finger or stylus pressure even through standard work gloves, making it suitable for assembly lines where capacitive screens could misread input.

Internal electronics draw from a single 24 VDC source, so the panel ties into the same low-voltage buses that feed sensors and I/O blocks and can remain energized by uninterruptible supplies during line stops. The front overlay is made from Polyester, giving resistance to repeated wipe-downs with cleaning agents, while the rear housing is made from Metal to provide electromagnetic shielding and physical rigidity. These material choices suit the unit for areas with vibration, airborne particles, and frequent operator interaction without impairing display clarity or touch accuracy.
