HMI HG2J Series

Dec. 12, 2022
The IDEC Corp HMI HG2J Series uses modern hardware and software technologies to provide an optimal display size and a high degree of usability.

The HG2J Series 7 in. touchscreen HMI has projected capacitive touch panel (PCAP) technology that saves space, improves performance, is wear-resistant, and provides a long life. PCAP glass requires fewer layers than traditional analog resistive plastic films, and the self-capacitance technology can also prevent accidental input due to water droplets. It is also more resistant to scratches, won’t turn yellow in the sun, and has a higher tolerance for dirt deposits and for contact with cleaning or washdown chemicals. Fewer layers and better light transmission ratings mean less backlight power is needed and provides an industry-leading 500 cd/m2 brightness level and 50,000-hour backlight life.

 

With a TFT LCD display resolution of 800 x 480 pixels, the HG2J HMI is conveniently sized for applications both small and large, and it provides smooth font rendering within its large high-visibility display area. This PCAP display does not require the large bezels of standard IR displays, allowing the bezel to be slimmer and sleeker in appearance for a small installation footprint. The overall HMI depth is just 1.2 in. (30 mm).

 

Operation with an input voltage of 12 to 24V DC makes the HG2J HMI suitable for a wide variety of industrial, solar, and vehicle applications. The HMI is rated for operation in a wide temperature range of -4 to +140°F (-20 to +60°C), and it carries IP66/67, UL, and CE ratings, with a Class I Div 2 hazardous location rating.

 

The HG2J HMI supports over 100 serial and Ethernet industrial communication protocols, including Modbus, providing connectivity with most PLC makes and models and making it ideal for industrial internet of things (IIoT) applications.
