When industrial environments demand both durability and performance, a rugged IP67 Panel PC becomes an essential solution. The KLD-1061CA IP67 Stainless Steel Panel PC is engineered for reliability in challenging conditions — from food factories requiring daily high-pressure washdowns, to outdoor installations exposed to dust, moisture, and temperature extremes. This panel PC is powered by an Intel® processor and designed with robust I/O flexibility, making it an excellent fit for industrial automation, HMI, edge computing, and control applications.
What IP67 does not cover
IP67 is a dust-tight, temporary-immersion rating: one metre of still water for thirty minutes. On a food or pharmaceutical line that is rarely what the enclosure is actually asked to survive, and three things sit outside the code:
- Directed jets. A hose with a nozzle is a different test. High-pressure, high-temperature washdown is covered by IP69K, not IP67.
- Chemical attack. Alkaline foams, chlorine and peracetic acid attack gaskets, sealant and powder coating at different rates. The IP number says nothing about the cleaning chemistry.
- Thermal cycling and pressure decay. A sealed box washed hot and then chilled can draw moisture past a seal that passed a static immersion test; cable glands and connectors are usually the first points to leak.
304 or 316L: which stainless grade to specify
The IP rating describes water. The stainless grade describes what the water carries. Chloride decides it, and it decides the maintenance bill long before the ingress rating fails.
| SUS304 | SUS316 / 316L | |
|---|---|---|
| Chloride resistance | Moderate | High |
| Typical environment | Dairy, bakery, beverage and general food lines cleaned with water and alkaline detergent | Brine, salt, seafood, hypochlorite CIP, coastal sites |
| Welding | Standard | 316L is the low-carbon variant usually named where the enclosure is welded |
| Cost position | Baseline | Premium |
| Availability at CESIPC | Standard on the KLD-1061CA | Enclosure upgrade, confirmed at RFQ stage |
If your line runs brine or salt-heavy product, specify 316L and confirm it in writing on the quotation. If the cleaning regime is water and alkaline detergent on a dairy or bakery line, 304 is normally the right answer and the premium buys nothing. For the full-enclosure variant used on arm-mounted washdown stations, see the full 304 stainless IP69K panel PC; where only the front face is exposed in a cabinet, the S-Grade front-bezel panel PC is the cheaper architecture.
IP67/IP69K certified: waterproof and dustproof
The KLD-1061CA meets IP67 and IP69K standards, ensuring:
- Total protection against dust ingress
- Waterproof operation, including full submersion (up to 1 meter for 30 minutes under IP67)
- High-pressure, high-temperature water jet resistance (IP69K), ideal for hygienic industries such as food & beverage or pharmaceuticals
Its full-sealed stainless steel or aluminum alloy housing is easy to clean and corrosion-resistant, making it ideal for sanitation-intensive industries.
Intel-powered stainless panel PC for stable performance
Built on an Intel® x86 platform (configurable from Celeron to Core™ depending on your needs), this fanless IP67 Stainless Steel Panel PC offers:
- Reliable processing power for SCADA, PLC, MES, and IoT tasks
- Compatibility with Windows 10/11, Linux, or embedded OS
- Low power consumption and long lifecycle support
Sealed industrial I/O
Despite its waterproof construction, the KLD-1061CA doesn’t compromise on connectivity. It features a variety of industrial-grade connectors protected by sealed M12 or IP67-rated ports:
- 2× LAN ports (RJ45 or M12) – ideal for redundancy, industrial networking, or dual-network setups
- 2× USB ports – support for touch devices, barcode scanners, or flash drives (sealed, waterproof USB interfaces)
- 1× RS232 + 1× RS485 COM ports – enabling communication with PLCs, sensors, industrial controllers, or legacy equipment
- Wide voltage input (9V–36V DC) with over-voltage and ESD protection
Industrial touch display
- 10.1-inch PCAP (Projected Capacitive) touch screen( 15.6inch, 21.5inch available)
- Glove-friendly and operable with wet hands
- High-brightness (up to 1000 nits) display – sunlight readable for outdoor environments
- Anti-glare and anti-UV coatings available for outdoor or high-humidity deployments
Mounting and installation
The KLD-1061CA offers versatile installation options, including:
- Panel mount
- VESA mount (75/100mm)
- Wall or pole mount
All mounting accessories are IP-rated for outdoor or washdown environments.
