Product Description:

The 5PP520.0702-K11 operator panel is produced by B&R Automation within the 5PP Power Panels series. As a combined display and controller, the unit provides machine builders with a compact human-machine interface that supports visualization, recipe handling, and basic control tasks directly at the equipment. Its purpose is to replace separate PCs and control keys with a touch-enabled screen that links sensors, drives, and PLC networks through integrated communication ports. The panel mounts on the front door of electrical enclosures, placing diagnostics and setup functions where operators need them.

It presents an 800 x 480 pixels active-matrix image on a 7 in TFT color display, and the palette supports 16 million colors for clear status graphics and alarm icons. The surface responds through analog resistive touch technology, eliminating the need for physical keys. Internal heat is removed passively because the design is fanless, and typical demand is 24 W, allowing installation in cabinets with limited power budgets. Communication to legacy controllers is possible through a COM1 RS-232 port, while one Ethernet interface handles deterministic fieldbus traffic. Two USB receptacles accept service sticks, and a Type I CompactFlash slot stores recipes or application files. Total mass is 1200 g, so the panel can be supported by standard VESA or stud mounts.

Power is supplied at 24 VDC, and system electronics draw a nominal 1 A, simplifying fuse selection in 24-volt machine loops. The front foil, bezel, and gasket achieve IP65 protection when the unit is correctly seated, so washdown spray or airborne dust does not reach the electronics. Host computers identify the maintenance port as USB 2.0, enabling rapid project uploads without proprietary cables. The panel is suitable for packaging, material-handling, and light assembly cells.
