WPC-W15-G 15.6-inch 16:9 IP69K Stainless Steel Panel PC

Unlike our standard EPC‑W or EPC‑S aluminum‑housing IP65 panel PCs (built for factory floors and moderate washdown), the 15.6‑inch G‑Series is engineered for daily, intensive hygienic cleaning. It features a fully welded SUS304 stainless steel enclosure with a CNC‑machined unibody bezel, achieving total IP69K + IP67 + IK07 protection — the highest ingress and impact ratings for washdown environments. The all‑stainless construction resists corrosion from aggressive cleaning agents and withstands high‑pressure (80–100 bar), high‑temperature (up to 80°C) steam and chemical washdowns at close range. The 15.6‑inch 16:9 widescreen with 1920×1080 Full HD resolution is particularly well‑suited for dairy, seafood, meat processing, central kitchens, and pharmaceutical cleanrooms where daily sanitation protocols mandate complete waterproofing and easy decontamination.

IP69K is the highest ingress‑protection rating for washdown equipment. It guarantees complete dust‑tightness and 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. Facilities that require daily steam or chemical sanitization — such as meat, seafood and dairy processing plants — mandate IP69K for all equipment in the washdown zone. IP67 adds protection against temporary immersion (up to 1 meter for 30 minutes), providing extra margin against flooding, hose‑down pooling and deep cleaning cycles. IK07 indicates mechanical impact resistance (2J impact energy, equivalent to a 1.7 kg mass dropped from 120 mm), protecting the unit from accidental bumps, dropped tools and high‑traffic collisions in busy production areas. Together, these three certifications ensure the device survives the harshest hygienic environments — from daily chemical washdown bays to cold storage rooms — without enclosure degradation or internal contamination.

This is the key decision point within the G‑Series lineup. The 15.6‑inch model features a 16:9 widescreen with 1920×1080 Full HD resolution, while the 15‑inch model has a 4:3 aspect ratio with 1024×768 XGA resolution. Choose the 15.6‑inch widescreen when your application requires native support for modern SCADA platforms (Ignition, WinCC Unified, FactoryTalk View SE) that are designed for widescreen dashboards, process flow diagrams, video monitoring, and multi‑parameter visualization. The 16:9 format provides approximately 50% more pixels (2.07 million vs 0.79 million) and is ideal for displaying long production lines, energy trend curves, or simultaneous multi‑screen views. Choose the 15‑inch 4:3 model for text‑dense interfaces, legacy SCADA software, or retrofit projects where the existing cabinet cutout matches 4:3 dimensions. Both share the same IP69K stainless steel construction, hygienic design, and BlockCore™ modular platform.

The G‑Series 15.6‑inch IP69K panel PC is designed for industries where equipment must endure daily high‑pressure, high‑temperature washdown with caustic chemicals or steam. Primary applications include:

• Dairy Processing — Cheese vats, milk pasteurization lines, CIP stations, and packaging equipment. The 15.6‑inch widescreen FHD display provides excellent visualization for batch recipes, real‑time temperature curves, and CIP cycle status.
• Seafood & Meat Processing — Portioning machines, packing lines, and hygiene workstations. The 16:9 format is ideal for displaying product specifications, weight histograms, and traceability data alongside operator controls.
• Central Kitchens & Commissaries — High‑volume food preparation facilities that undergo daily deep cleaning. The 15.6‑inch size balances readability and workspace footprint, fitting comfortably on mixing stations and ingredient handling lines.
• Pharmaceutical & Biotech Cleanrooms — Tablet coating lines, filling suites, aseptic processing areas, and sterile compounding rooms where disinfectant fogging and wipe‑down are routine.
• Chemical & Cosmetics Manufacturing — Mixing vessels, filling lines and packaging equipment exposed to corrosive solvents, acids and frequent washdown cycles.

For general factory automation and light splash zones, our EPC‑W aluminium‑housing IP65 series offers a more cost‑effective alternative.

The G‑Series is engineered from the ground up for GMP/HACCP‑ready sanitation compliance:

• Full SUS304 stainless steel enclosure with CNC‑machined unibody bezel and welded chassis — No crevices, seams, sharp edges, hollow cavities or bacterial harborage points. The completely welded design prevents moisture ingress through joints.
• Smooth, non‑porous surfaces — All exterior surfaces are polished to resist particle entrapment and allow easy wipe‑down with disinfectants, bleach solutions or steam.
• Anti‑condensation airflow valve — A specialized breather valve equalizes internal pressure during rapid temperature shifts (e.g., moving from cold storage to washdown bay), preventing internal fogging and condensation while maintaining full IP69K sealing integrity.
• IP69K‑rated sealed aviation connectors — All I/O ports (USB, dual Gigabit LAN, RS232, DC power) use rugged aviation‑style connectors that withstand direct high‑pressure spray without ingress. No standard unsealed ports are exposed.
• Fanless hygienic thermal structure — Eliminates airflow pathways that draw in dust, moisture and bacteria. Heat is conducted through the stainless steel chassis to external cooling fins, keeping the internal sealed environment completely contaminant‑free.
• Resistant to corrosion from cleaning agents — SUS304 (and optional SUS316) withstands repeated exposure to chlorine‑based disinfectants, quaternary ammonia, peracetic acid and other harsh sanitizers used in food and pharmaceutical cleaning protocols.

The 15.6‑inch G‑Series supports scalable performance across Intel platforms, all sharing the same stainless steel enclosure, sealed I/O and panel‑mount dimensions:

• Celeron J1900 — 4 cores, 2.0–2.42GHz, 10W TDP, Intel HD Graphics. Memory: DDR3L 4–8GB. Entry‑level for basic HMI and data‑logging tasks in clean‑area workstations.
• Celeron J6412 — 4 cores, 2.0–2.6GHz, 10W TDP, Intel UHD Graphics (16 EUs). Memory: DDR4 4–32GB. Improved efficiency for light SCADA workloads.

The 15.6‑inch G‑Series is available with two industrial touch technologies, each optimized for washdown environments:

Resistive 5‑wire touch (standard on base models): Activated by pressure, not electrical conductivity — works reliably with wet hands, water droplets on the screen, and thick industrial gloves (latex, nitrile, rubber). Immune to false touches from water spray or condensation. The preferred choice for washdown zones where operators frequently handle wet product or wear heavy sanitation gloves.

Projected capacitive (P‑CAP) touch (standard on WPC‑W1562A‑G and higher‑end models): Provides multi‑touch capability (pinch/zoom), higher optical clarity and excellent responsiveness — works through thin gloves and wet conditions using advanced algorithms that reject water droplets. Ideal for applications requiring modern gesture‑based HMI interaction. The 15.6‑inch display features 1920×1080 resolution, 300 cd/m² brightness, 500:1 contrast ratio with 50,000 hours LED backlight life.

Both touch technologies are sealed behind the IP69K front panel and survive daily exposure to high‑pressure washdown, cleaning agents and steam.

CESIPC’s BlockCore™ modular architecture separates the compute engine (i‑Core Board) from the stainless steel display assembly — delivering critical advantages for hygienic washdown environments:

1. Upgradability without re‑certification: Upgrading from a Celeron J1900 to a 12th Gen Core i7 requires only swapping the compute board. The IP69K stainless steel enclosure, sealed I/O connectors, touchscreen, anti‑condensation valve and panel‑mount cutout all remain unchanged — preserving your costly IP69K, sanitary and washdown certifications.
2. Simplified spare parts & maintenance: A single i‑Core Board SKU works across G‑Series stainless steel models and standard EPC‑W aluminium panel PCs. Field service teams can replace the compute module in minutes without breaking the IP69K seal or compromising hygienic integrity.
3. Modular I/O expansion: BlockCore™ supports i‑Function and i‑Connect expansion boards for additional ports (GPIO, 4G, LVDS, serial ports, intelligent fan control) — without altering the sealed enclosure or requiring custom PCB development.

SafeCore™ is CESIPC’s system‑level power‑loss protection architecture. In washdown and food processing facilities, plants often perform emergency shutdowns for cleaning cycles, lockout/tagout procedures or unexpected power fluctuations from high‑pressure washdown equipment — events that can corrupt OS files and batch logs if power is removed abruptly. SafeCore™ guards the operating system against file corruption during sudden power failure, ensuring safe disk writes and preventing fragmentation or data loss. Combined with auto power‑on recovery (the system automatically restarts when power returns), it guarantees the washdown workstation resumes normal operation after each cleaning shift without manual intervention. This is mission‑critical for production traceability logs, HACCP temperature records, operator authentication, and real‑time quality data feeds in regulated food and pharmaceutical environments. SafeCore™ is standard across all G‑Series models and requires no additional configuration.

The 15.6‑inch G‑Series supports VESA mounting (100×100mm) for flexible installation on stands, articulated arms or machine frames, with standard panel‑mount options available for flush integration into stainless steel control cabinets.

Mechanical dimensions: Overall 416.5(W) × 265(H) × 60.5(D) mm. Weight: 12 kg net (WPC‑W1561A‑G) or 7 kg (G‑Series base). Materials: Rugged SUS304 stainless steel casing (SUS316 optional for higher corrosion resistance).

Sealed I/O ports (aviation connectors): 2 × USB 2.0 Type‑A, 1 × Gigabit LAN port with RJ45 aviation connector (Intel® I210 chipset for reliable industrial communication), 2 × RS232 (optional RS485/422 conversion), 1 × 4‑pin DC input (9–36V wide‑range). All connectors survive direct high‑pressure spray without ingress.

Wireless: Optional Intel N6235 Wi‑Fi (802.11a/b/g/n, 2.4G/5G, 300Mbps) and 4G LTE module.

Yes — the 15.6‑inch G‑Series offers both resistive and optional projected capacitive (P‑CAP) touch technologies, each optimized for washdown environments:

Resistive 5‑wire touch (standard on WPC‑W1561A‑G): Activated by pressure, not electrical conductivity — works reliably with wet hands, water droplets on the screen, and thick industrial gloves (latex, nitrile, rubber). Immune to false touches from water spray or condensation. The preferred choice for washdown zones where operators frequently handle wet product or wear heavy sanitation gloves.

Projected capacitive (P‑CAP) touch (standard on WPC‑W1562A‑G and higher‑end models): Provides multi‑touch capability (pinch/zoom), higher optical clarity and excellent responsiveness — works through thin gloves and wet conditions using advanced algorithms that reject water droplets. Ideal for applications requiring modern gesture‑based HMI interaction.

Both touch technologies are sealed behind the IP69K front panel and survive daily exposure to high‑pressure washdown, cleaning agents and steam. The front surface is also treated to resist chemical attack from disinfectants and sanitizers.
