Waterproof 21.5‑inch IP67 Panel PC — Meat Processing FAQ
IP67/IP69K stainless steel industrial panel PC purpose‑built for meat processing, seafood, dairy, and heavy sanitation environments.
What makes this IP67 Panel PC different from standard industrial panel PCs?+
This is a full stainless steel industrial panel PC with IP67/IP69K protection, purpose‑built for meat processing, seafood, dairy, and heavy sanitation environments. Standard industrial panel PCs use aluminium enclosures with IP65 front‑panel protection only — they cannot survive daily high‑pressure, high‑temperature washdowns, chemical sanitisation, or prolonged exposure to moisture and grease.
Key differentiators include:
• Full stainless steel (SUS304/SUS316) enclosure — Fully sealed and corrosion‑resistant, with a CNC‑machined front bezel and welded chassis. Resists chlorine‑based disinfectants, quaternary ammonia, peracetic acid, and other harsh sanitisers used in meat processing.
• IP67 + IP69K + IK07 protection — Withstands high‑pressure hot‑water washdown (80–100 bar), chemical sanitisation, temporary immersion (up to 1 metre for 30 minutes), and mechanical impact (IK07). Fully submersible for deep cleaning cycles.
• 21.5‑inch Full HD touchscreen — Anti‑glare display with glove‑friendly capacitive touch, ensuring clear visibility in wet and cold environments like refrigerated storage.
• MES‑ready integration — Enables real‑time production monitoring, quality control, batch tracking, and cloud‑based data management. Compatible with ERP, SCADA, and automation software.
• SafeCore™ power‑loss protection — Prevents data corruption during sudden power loss, ensuring stable 24/7 operation.
Standard industrial panel PCs cannot meet the hygiene, washdown, and compliance requirements of meat processing facilities — this panel PC is engineered specifically for HACCP, GMP, and ISO 22000 environments.
What is the difference between IP67 and IP69K — and why does meat processing need both?+
The IP67 + IP69K combination provides comprehensive protection for the most demanding meat processing environments.
IP67 — Complete dust‑tight protection and resistance to temporary immersion in water (up to 1 metre for 30 minutes). This ensures the panel PC survives deep cleaning cycles, flooding, and hose‑down pooling in processing areas.
IP69K — The highest ingress protection rating for washdown equipment. Guarantees resistance to high‑temperature (80°C ±5°C), high‑pressure (80–100 bar) water jets delivered from a distance as close as 100–150 mm. This is the rating required for daily steam or chemical sanitisation in meat, poultry, and seafood processing plants.
Why both matter for meat processing: Facilities perform high‑pressure washdowns with hot water, steam, and chemical sanitisers multiple times per shift. IP69K ensures the panel PC survives direct spray during sanitation. IP67 provides additional margin against flooding, pooling, and immersion during deep cleaning cycles. Together, they ensure the device withstands the harshest hygienic environments without enclosure degradation or internal contamination.
Why stainless steel (SUS304/SUS316) instead of aluminium?+
The full SUS304/SUS316 stainless steel enclosure is a requirement for meat processing environments. Aluminium enclosures — even with IP65 front panels — cannot survive the daily chemical and physical stress of meat processing washdowns.
Key advantages of stainless steel:
• Corrosion resistance — Aluminium corrodes when exposed to chlorine‑based disinfectants, quaternary ammonia, and peracetic acid commonly used in meat plant sanitation protocols. Stainless steel (SUS304/SUS316) resists these chemicals.
• Hygienic, crevice‑free surfaces — The CNC‑machined unibody bezel and welded chassis eliminate crevices, seams, and bacterial harborage points. Smooth, non‑porous surfaces resist particle entrapment and allow easy wipe‑down with disinfectants and steam.
• GMP/HACCP‑ready design — Meets the hygienic design requirements of food and pharmaceutical cleanrooms. The stainless steel construction supports HACCP, GMP, and ISO 22000 compliance.
• Durability under high‑pressure washdown — The welded stainless steel chassis withstands direct high‑pressure spray (80–100 bar) without deformation or ingress, while aluminium enclosures can dent or warp under the same conditions.
How does the 21.5‑inch touchscreen perform in cold, wet meat processing environments?+
The 21.5‑inch Full HD anti‑glare display with glove‑friendly capacitive touch is specifically engineered for meat processing conditions.
Key performance features:
• Glove‑friendly capacitive touch — Operators wearing latex, nitrile, or cotton gloves can interact with the screen reliably. The capacitive sensing algorithm rejects water droplets while maintaining accurate touch registration.
• Clear visibility in wet and cold environments — The anti‑glare display ensures readability in refrigerated storage and processing areas (down to -20°C). 350 cd/m² brightness maintains visibility under bright washdown lighting.
• Multi‑touch operation — Supports pinch, zoom, and swipe gestures for modern SCADA and MES interfaces, improving productivity on the factory floor.
• Sealed behind IP69K front panel — The touchscreen is fully sealed behind the stainless steel front panel, surviving daily exposure to high‑pressure washdown, cleaning agents, and steam. The anti‑condensation airflow valve prevents internal fogging during rapid temperature shifts.
The combination of glove‑friendly touch, anti‑glare display, and full IP69K sealing ensures reliable operation in meat processing environments where standard touchscreens fail.
What is MES integration and how does this panel PC support it?+
MES (Manufacturing Execution System) integration enables real‑time production monitoring, quality control, and batch tracking — transforming the panel PC from a simple HMI into a data‑driven production tool.
How this panel PC supports MES integration:
• Real‑time data capture — Operators log production data, quality checks, and batch information directly into MES via the touchscreen, eliminating manual paper records.
• Cloud‑based data management — Supports cloud connectivity for centralised data storage and analytics, reducing human error.
• ERP and SCADA compatibility — Compatible with ERP, SCADA, and automation software for seamless industrial integration.
• Advanced connectivity — Multiple I/O options (USB, RS232, RS485, LAN, Wi‑Fi) plus optional 4G/5G, Bluetooth, and RFID scanning for data collection. All I/O ports use stainless steel materials for washdown durability.
• Digital traceability — Enables adherence to HACCP, GMP, and ISO 22000 standards through complete digital traceability of production data.
With MES integration, meat processing plants achieve improved food safety compliance, increased productivity through automated data collection, reduced downtime, and better operational control.
