MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC LAUNCHES HMI FOR EXTREME ENVIRONMENTS


With an extended operating temperature range of -20°C to +65°C, and protection rating to IP67F/IP66F, the GOT2507T-WTSD 7” operator terminal from Mitsubishi Electric meets the needs of demanding industries such as power, food and beverage and machine building.

The GOT Rugged is among a series of


new developments Mitsubishi Electric have made to their GOT2000 Series. Mitsubishi Electric have been enhancing their GOT2000 range offering, only recently they expanded the GOT2000 series of Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) with two new widescreen versions. The ability to display additional visual information gives users of the new GT21 and GT25 widescreen HMIs the opportunity to enhance machine operability and the potential to increase productivity. Other valuable features include two separate Ethernet ports and a built-in sound output interface that can be used for spoken alerts or information. The GT21 is a 7” widescreen Graphic

itsubishi Electric has launched its HMI, designed particularly for


extreme environments. No additional protective measures are required for washdown with high pressure water or use in power equipment that is typically located outdoors. As a result, it is a perfect fit for industries such as power, food and beverage and machine building. While standard HMIs typically feature an operating temperature range from 0- 55°C, the expanded temperature range of the GOT2507T-WTSD means it can be used in harsher environments without the need for heaters in the lowest temperatures or fans and coolers in the highest. This can significantly reduce operating expenses for the likes of food and beverage manufacturers and in power industry applications, as well as offering more flexibility for deployment where extreme temperatures are encountered. Where use in direct sunlight is required, the GOT2507T-WTSD offers enhanced resistance to UV rays, while on-screen clarity even under strong sunlight has been enhanced through the use of a high brightness LCD panel and a special

coating to eliminate glare. Furthermore, since the structure of the front panel has been reinforced with a metal housing, the rugged model can be used in environments that are subject to shock or vibration. Along with the increased strength and


durability, users benefit from all the features and functions of the existing GOT2000 models. These include multiple communication interfaces, comprising of two Ethernet ports, wireless LAN interface, USB, RS232 and RS422/485. In addition to this, audible warning functionality reinforces the information displayed on the screen and Mitsubishi Electric’s GOT Mobile provides real-time machine visualisation using remote devices such as tablets, smartphones and PCs. All these functions help improve productivity and reduce the total cost of ownership for machinery. As well as the food and beverage and


power industries, further applications for the GOT2507T-WTSD include heavy machinery, parking systems, power conditioners, EV charging stands and shipping/dockside.

Operation Terminal (GOT) offering WVGA resolution and featuring on- board Ethernet, CC-Link IE Field Basic, RS-232 and RS-422/485 connectivity options. The GT25 is available in both 7” WVGA and 10” WXGA and adds a second Ethernet port for increased flexibility, as well as supporting wireless LAN connectivity.


The second Ethernet port on the GT25


model enables users to physically separate the connections to the information system network and the control system network. The ability to set different IP addresses for each network helps to promote increased security and safety, and increases network flexibility.
