The PFXGP4601TAD belongs to Pro-face’s GP4000 series, offering a cost-effective yet feature-rich 12.1-inch industrial touchscreen HMI for machine builders and system integrators. Its SVGA TFT color LCD (800 x 600 pixels, 65,536 colors) provides sharp visuals for process displays, alarms, trends, and operator interfaces, while the analog resistive touch panel (1024×1024 resolution) ensures reliable input even with gloves or through protective films. With 32 MB FLASH EPROM for screen data and 132 KB logic program area (expandable to 60,000 steps via software), it handles complex HMI applications without external memory cards.
Connectivity is robust with COM1 (RS-232C) and COM2 (RS-422/485) for PLC communication (up to 115.2 kbps), USB port for configuration/data transfer using GP-Pro EX software, and support for protocols like Modbus RTU, Mitsubishi, Omron, and generic serial. The unit runs on 24 VDC (17 W max consumption) with excellent power ride-through (10 ms) and dielectric strength (AC 1000 V), making it suitable for unstable industrial power environments. White LED backlight offers 16-level brightness control and long life, while SRAM 320 KB with replaceable lithium battery ensures data backup during outages.
Designed for harsh factory floors, the PFXGP4601TAD carries IP65 front protection (NEMA 4X/12/13), operates from 0 to 50°C, and withstands vibration (9.8 m/s²) and shock (147 m/s²) per IEC/EN61131-2 standards. Dimensions are 315 x 241 x 56 mm (panel cutout 286 x 214 mm), weighing about 3.4 kg, with silver/gray bezel and certifications including UL/cUL, CE, RoHS for global compliance. It’s programmed offline/online via USB/Ethernet with Pro-face’s intuitive GP-Pro EX, supporting data logging, recipes, scripts, and multi-language displays.
