Product Description:

The 6PPT30.0702-20F003 operator terminal is manufactured by B&R Automation and is part of the 6PPT Power Touch Panels series. This compact human-machine interface is intended for machine-level visualization and control, giving operators direct access to process data and commands through its integrated screen and networking capabilities. Its footprint is suited to equipment where panel space is limited yet a full-color visual display is necessary for routine operation and diagnostics. It can present alarms, status pages, and setup menus on one screen, which reduces the need for separate indicator devices on the machine front.

The display is a TFT color unit with a diagonal of 7.0" and a native resolution of 800 x 480 pixels, providing clear graphics for status icons and parameter entry. A brightness of 500 cd/m² maintains readability under overhead factory lighting. Touch input is registered by analog resistive technology, allowing interaction with gloved hands. An ARM Cortex-A8 processor handles user interface tasks, fieldbus protocols, and local calculations while accessing 256 MB of DRAM for volatile data. Application code, screen objects, and recipes reside in 512 MB of flash memory. Two Ethernet ports enable separation between machine and plant networks, and two USB ports accommodate maintenance sticks, barcode readers, or other peripherals without external hubs. This combination supports responsive screen changes and local handling of visualization tasks during normal machine operation.

The panel operates from a nominal supply of 24 VDC; at that voltage the electronics draw up to 389 mA, yielding a maximum power requirement of 9.34 W. The housing width of 197 mm and height of 140 mm simplify door or arm mounting without custom cutouts. When the sealing gasket is correctly seated, the front surface meets IP65 protection, guarding the screen and keys against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. Its panel format works well in cabinets and support-arm installations where clear access to the display is important during normal machine use.
