Beckhoff CP2916-0000 CP29xx Multi-touch Built-in Control Panel

Description

Designed for demanding industrial HMI applications, the Beckhoff CP2916-0000 Control Panel combines multi-touch functionality with high-performance video and USB signal transmission. This built-in unit features a 15.6-inch widescreen display and utilizes DVI-E and USB-E 2.0 technology, allowing the control interface to operate up to 50 meters away from the industrial PC. The physical architecture includes a robust, scratch-resistant glass front with an aluminum housing built to withstand harsh factory floors and complex control system environments.

The integrated multi-finger touch screen supports modern, intuitive operator interfaces with gesture control, providing operators with precise control capabilities. Front-side protection rated at IP65 ensures reliable operation in areas exposed to liquids, dust, and continuous mechanical stress. Through the remote DVI-E and USB-E 2.0 ports, standard PC signals are transmitted over cost-effective CAT6A cables without sacrificing display resolution or peripheral response speed.

Features

• High-Resolution Widescreen Display: Equipped with a 15.6-inch TFT screen supporting 1366 x 768 resolution and 16:9 aspect ratio.
• Extended Installation Range: DVI-E and USB-E 2.0 connection technology allows physical separation between the PC and panel at distances up to 50 meters.
• Industrial Ingress Protection: Offers IP65 ingress protection on the front face and IP20 protection on the rear side.
• Efficient Mechanical Mounting: Built-in installation using pull-out clamping levers eliminates loose mounting parts and speeds up integration.

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the panel cutout dimensions match the precise manufacturer specification sheet for the 15.6-inch housing variant.
• To achieve IP65 rating on the front panel, confirm that the sealing gasket is correctly seated and the mounting surface is smooth and flat.
• Insert the integrated pull-out clamping levers and tighten them to secure the housing firmly to the mounting wall or cabinet.
• Connect a heavy-gauge PE (Protective Earth) wire to the grounding lug on the back cover of the device to assure protection against electromagnetic interference.
• Maintain a minimum of 50 mm clearance above and below the rear housing to facilitate natural convection cooling.
