Product Description
The Allen Bradley 6181P-17A2SW71DC industrial computer features a factory-calibrated, glove-compatible 17-inch multi-touch PCAP touchscreen (supporting two simultaneous touches and gestures like pinch-to-zoom) with a 5:4 aluminum bezel and glass front. It includes 32GB of SLC solid-state storage. Ensure proper grounding, airflow, and cooling (potentially using a fan or heat exchanger) to maintain an operating temperature between 0 and 50 degrees Celsius and prolong the computer's lifespan; maintain minimum clearance for adequate ventilation. The unit measures 449mm x 355mm x 103mm. For installation, first disconnect power. Verify cutout dimensions (329mm x 424mm) and cable connections. Secure the sealing gasket, position the computer in the cutout, and slide in the mounting clips. Hand-tighten the clips in the specified order (top middle, bottom middle, right top, left bottom, left top, right bottom, bottom right, bottom left, top right, top left) to a torque of 1.35 N-m. Confirm correct installation before restoring power.
