24" Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 660 G-WIN GC-Series Front IP65 PCAP Panel PC

Winmate's G-WIN Series consists of rugged and unusually well-sealed vehicle or stationary-mount Panel PCs available in a wide variety of configurations. Depending on the intended application, G-WIN panels have been available with 5-wire resistive touch displays measuring 8.4", 10.4", 12.1", 15" or 19",diagonally. Since the sealed nature and high reliability requirements of the G-Win line precluded fans and cooling slots, G-Win Panel PCs were designed with low power processors that didn't generate a lot of heat. That meant either Intel Cedar Trail, Intel Bay Trail or, more recently, Intel Haswell processors. Ruggedness requirements for a Panel PC are different from those for a mobile tablet or notebook computer. The ever-important drop spec is almost meaningless in a fix-mount panel. Shock, however, can occur, as can vibration. As a result, Winmate did configure the G-WIN panel to be able to pass the MIL-STD-810F 516.5 Procedure I 40g for 11ms saw tooth pulse test, as well as the pertaining MIL-STD-810F 514.5 vibration test. The G-WIN can handle a very wide operating temperature range of as low as -13 degrees and as high as 140 degrees Fahrenheit (-25 to 60 degrees Celsius). The overall construction of the G-WIN panel is inherently rugged. The aluminum die-cast housing is rock-solid and special anti-corrosion treatment means it'll hold up even in exposed settings. Surface treatment is a very resistive black powder coating. Optical bonding with anti-moisture treatment is standard, and there's a protective glass option available. The Winmate G-WIN is a rugged vehicle or stationary-mount, panel computer. It features an ignition on/off delay for accurate vehicle power management, and offers a super-solid and highly configurable rugged exterior, exceptionally well suited for harsh environments, such as a vehicle, forklift, and warehouse mounting, to name a few. The G-WIN features wide-range power (9 to 36 volts) and operates on vehicle power, eliminating the need to recharge batteries. The ignition on/off delay feature prevents the panel PC from instantly shutting down when the vehicle ignition is turned off, or from needlessly running after the the vehicle has been shut down. Ruggedness As far as ruggedness and durability go, Panel PCs have different requirements than mobile systems that are carried around. The usual drop spec doesn't matter here because these units are fixed-mounts. They must, however, be able to endure shocks and vibration, as well as having a high degree of external damage resistance. Ingress protection matters, both to particulates and to liquids. The panel has passed those tests. The 24inch front IP65 PCAP Panel PC W24RK3S's 5 to 131 degree Fahrenheit operating temperature range makes it suitable for deployments both indoors and outdoors. The entire panel carries an IP65 ingress protection rating where the first "6" indicates the unit is totally dustproof and the "5" that the unit can even handle low pressure jets of water. Combined with the M12 connectors, this means the panel can be hosed doesn if need be. Display Display quality and brightness is as important in Panel PC as in any other computer. The 24inch front IP65 PCAP Panel PC W24RK3S offers 1024 x 768 pixel resolution, which is quite adequate for the custom touch applications these units are predominantly used for. Likewise, the display's 123 ppi (pixels per inch) is easily sharp enough for its intended purpose. Since 24inch front IP65 PCAP Panel PC W24RK3S units are designed for indoor and outdoor use, they can be ordered with panel brightness of 350 or 1000 nits brightness. In our lab luminance testing, the 24inch front IP65 PCAP Panel PC W24RK3S reached 440 nits, significantly more than your average modern office laptop. Still, for daylight, open vehicle and maritime use, we'd recommend the 1,000 nits option.
