FAQ

Q: What is the difference between IP67 and IP69K protection ratings?
A: IP67 means the enclosure is protected against temporary immersion in water up to 1 metre for 30 minutes. IP69K — the higher rating — covers protection against high-pressure, high-temperature water jets (80°C, 80–100 bar, at 10–15 cm distance), as defined in ISO 20653. In food processing environments where equipment undergoes daily steam cleaning or high-pressure washdowns with hot water and chemical disinfectants, IP69K is the required standard. CESIPC’s G-series meets both IP67 and IP69K ratings simultaneously.

Q: Why is 304 stainless steel used instead of aluminium for food processing panel PCs?
A: Aluminium can corrode when exposed repeatedly to the chlorine-based cleaning agents, alkaline detergents, and acidic disinfectants commonly used in food processing facilities. 304 stainless steel is inherently resistant to these chemicals and does not require surface coatings that could peel or degrade over time. It also meets hygiene standards for direct and indirect food-contact environments (FDA 21 CFR, EU 1935/2004), making it the material of choice for meat processing, dairy, pharmaceutical, and beverage production equipment.

Q: Can CESIPC IP69K panel PCs be operated while wearing gloves?
A: Yes. All models in the G-series are available with five-wire resistive touchscreens, which respond to any pressure input — including gloved fingers, stylus, or tools. Resistive touch is the standard choice for food processing environments where operators wear latex, nitrile, or thick rubber gloves. Capacitive touch options are also available for applications where bare-hand or thin-glove operation is required.

Q: Which screen size is right for my application?
A: The 10″ model (WPC- S10XXG) suits compact control cabinet installations and single-parameter monitoring stations. The 15″ and 15.6″ models ( WPC- S15XXG, WPC- W15XXG) are the most commonly deployed sizes for HMI terminals, MES data entry, and line control stations. The 21.5″ model (WPC-W21XXG) is used for supervisory control rooms, multi-parameter dashboards, and operator workstations requiring larger display area. All models share the same IP69K rating and stainless steel construction.

Q: What industries use CESIPC IP69K panel PCs?
A: CESIPC IP69K panel PCs are deployed in meat processing factories (Vietnam, Australia), dairy facilities (New Zealand), seafood processing plants, pharmaceutical cleanrooms, beverage production lines, pastry and bakery ingredient processing, and chemical processing plants. The combination of IP69K protection, 304 stainless steel construction, and glove-operable resistive touch makes them suitable for any environment requiring both computing functionality and rigorous hygiene compliance.
