The new stainless-steel Simatic Inox Pro monitors and panel PCs (photo) are suitable for use in hygienic production areas, while also meeting the requirements of the chemical and oil-and-gas industries. The devices have a high, IP66K degree of protection, and are suitable for use in the food and tobacco, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and fine chemical industries. The devices have an analog-resistive 19-in. touch display covered by a contiguous, chemically resistant decorative foil, and also have food-grade seals and splinter protection for the display. The stainless-steel enclosure is ground with a 240-grain size, which produces a surface that is smooth enough to protect against contamination. The Inox Pro devices are available either as the IPC277D Inox Pro industrial PC or as the IFP1900 Inox Pro Ethernet monitor. — Siemens AG, Munich, Germany
