About the QPKCGDE0000
This human/machine interface, from General Electric’s division of industrial automation, is the QPKCGDE0000. This model is one of the 5.7 inch units, as a part of the QuickPanel Junior category of products.
Many of the QuickPanel models have similar specifications, and the QPKCGEDE0000 is no exception. This unit is equipped with a thin film transistor with a full color LCD display. The image and graphic display is shown from a 5 inch by 4 inch (W x H) viewing panel, where the image resolution is in a crisp 240 by 320 pixels.
The nominal voltage is 24 V/DC, but operates between a range of 20 to 27 V/DC. There’s also a built in power failure immunity, in the event of the work environment losing power. The power immunity lasts up to 20 milliseconds. While being operated at full performance capabilities, the QPKCGDE0000 model consumes 15 watts, at maximum. It is built to withstand a voltage that is as harsh as 1500 V/AC, before its internals become seriously damaged.
It’s also built to run in a temperature range from 0 to 50 degrees C, or 32 to 122 degrees F. While in use, take note to not let the model run while overheating. This decreases the brightness of the touch screen model, which effects the workplace efficiency. In order to prevent this, instead of an internal forced air fan, there is a Natural Air Convection module installed.
