Rugged

• IP65

  IP Code, Ingress Protection Rating, classifies the degrees of protection provided against the intrusion of solid objects , dust, accidental contact, and water in electrical enclosures.

  First Digit - IP6x
  The first digit indicates the level of protection that the enclosure provides against access to hazardous parts (e.g., electrical conductors, moving parts) and the ingress of solid foreign objects.

  
  
  

  Level 6	dust tight	No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact

Second Digit - IPx5
Protection of the equipment inside the enclosure against harmful ingress of water.





Level 5	water jets	Water projected by a nozzle against enclosure from any direction shall have no harmful effects.

• Vibration & Shock

  The vibration tests simulate the products experiencing vibrations during transportation, installation, and usage environments. The purpose is to verify the products' ability to withstand such vibration and any potential damages which might come up during these conditions.

  Why EUDA designs in aluminum for front frame?

  In terms of “green” design, Aluminum is 100% recyclable with no downgrading of its qualities. The re-melting of aluminum requires little energy, only about 5 percent of the energy required to produce the primary metal initially is needed in the recycling process. Aluminum is a very light metal with a specific weight of 2.7 g/cm3, about a third that of steel. Aluminum naturally generates a protective oxide coating and is highly corrosion resistant. It is particularly useful for applications where protection and conservation are required. Aluminum is an excellent heat and electricity conductor and in relation to its weight is almost twice as good a conductor as copper.

Comparison of Aluminum, Molded Plastic and Steel
Property	Aluminum	Molded Plastic	Steel
Strength to Weight Ratio	Very Good	Moderate	Good
Corrosion Resistance	Very Good	Very Good	Poor Coating for corrosion is concerned
Thermal Conductivity	Very Good	Poor	Very Good
Combustibility	Noncombustible	Emission of toxic fumes may occur when exposed to high temperature	Noncombustible

Fan-free

• Not only Fanless, but also Fan-free.
  Advantages:

  No more worry about
  
  

  • Excessive power consumption
  • Reliability of fans.
  • Noise, dirt, aging and less effective of fans
  • Disaster of fan failure due to wear of bearings, dirt deposition or clog on the blades may result in system overheating.

  The MTBF of fans will never be constraint to your Panel PC system!

• Thermal Simulation & Test
  
  
  • Excessive temperatures can result in performance loss and, ultimately, component failures. For embedded systems that require high availability and longevity, this can be disastrous. Consequently, cooling has become an important design consideration. Where designers choose to place components, airflow vents, pressurization, and heat sinks has a measurable effect on thermal management.
  
  
  
  • To help improve the design’s overall reliability and avoid costly redesigns, thermal management must be validated early in the design process so that any problems can be addressed before the hardware is built.
    
    
  
  
  
  • Thermal simulation can be helpful in designing an optimal chassis cooling system. The ability to create a model environment that predicts airflow, temperature, and heat transfer and validates the thermal design can shorten design time significantly.

Touch

The Resistive Technology is applied on two layers with overlaying a hard-coated ITO on a conductive clear glass. These two layers are held apart by spacers (dots). When the flexible layer is touched and contacts the other layer that is set on the stable glass, the voltage is detected and measured from same voltage applied as an electrical field. The controller uses voltage measured from along the X-Y axis to calculate the position of the touch.

5-wire Resistive type touch screens are generally more durable than 4-wire Resistive type. This type of screen is recommended for demanding industrial controls, building and restaurant systems, and other workplace applications.

The advantages of 5-wire Resistive are

• High touch resolution.
• Pressure sensitive, works with any stylus.
• Not affected by dirt, dust, water, or light.
• More durable then 4-wire Resistive.
• More cost-effective than any other types of touch screens.
