Arestech TPM-S3317 17" PCAP or Resistive Stainless Steel Touch Monitors with Front IP66/IP69K

A 17 inch 5:4 screen is a common size for line HMIs and CNC controls, large enough for a full process mimic and still easy to fit into a cabinet door or machine guard. The Arestech TPM-S3317 series is built for that job: 17″ stainless steel touch monitors with a true flat 304 stainless front panel, 316 optional, sealed to IP66/IP69K at the front. The rear is an SECC steel back cover, so the seal rating applies to the front panel and the monitor is usually mounted with its back inside a cabinet, enclosure or machine guard.

Every TPM-S3317 monitor shares the same build. The 17 inch LCD runs at 1280 x 1024 in 5:4 SXGA, with 350 nits brightness, an 800:1 contrast ratio, 160° horizontal and 160° vertical viewing angles and 16.7 million colors. Within this stainless range it is the mid-size 5:4 option, between the 15 inch XGA and 19 inch SXGA models. Video comes in over one HDMI and one VGA input, OSD keys handle power, auto adjust, menu, up and down, and a multi-language menu covers brightness, contrast and color. A USB cable, a VGA cable and six panel-mount screws come in the box.

The TPM-S3317 series splits on touch. The TPM-S3317P-A1 uses projected capacitive touch with a 7 Mohs surface and 90% transparency, connected over USB, for light bare-finger operation. The TPM-S3317R-A1 uses 5-wire resistive touch with a 3 Mohs surface and 80% transparency, connected over USB or RS-232, the usual choice where operators keep gloves on at the screen. Both share the same LCD, inputs and front seal, so the choice comes down to gloves or bare hands.

Power is 12 V DC on a two-pin terminal block, with an optional 12 V, 60 W adapter. The 17″ monitors operate from -20 °C to 60 °C at 10 to 95% humidity, non-condensing, are tested for vibration under IEC 60068-2-64 and shock under IEC 60068-2-27, and carry CE and FCC Class A marks. They mount on VESA or in a panel cut-out. Arestech names industrial HMIs, touch monitors embedded on machine chassis, CNC machines, food and beverage processing and semi-outdoor sites as applications for the TPM-S3317 series, and we supply each one configured and tested for the installation.
