B&R 6PPT30.101G-20W Power Panel T30 Series

Product Overview

The 6PPT30.101G-20W (6PPT30.101G-20W) is a high-clarity Power Panel from the B&R T30 series, specifically engineered to serve as a robust human-machine interface (HMI) for industrial control applications. Featuring a 10.1-inch TFT color display with WSVGA resolution (1024 x 600 pixels), this unit delivers crisp, 16.7-million color rendering to ensure operational data is easily readable in demanding manufacturing environments. Designed to provide a reliable visual feedback loop, the panel is essential for operators in sectors such as plastic processing, packaging machinery, and assembly automation where precise visualization is a prerequisite for high-uptime operations.

Technical Configuration

The T30 system architecture provides an optimized balance of performance and efficiency. While the module does not feature an integrated real-time clock, it integrates perfectly with B&R control systems, relying on the central controller for synchronized timing data. Its electrical design is centered on a 24 VDC nominal supply, with a highly efficient power consumption profile of 10.3 W, making it suitable for compact control cabinets where thermal management is a priority.

The physical construction emphasizes industrial durability; the front panel is rated at IP65, offering excellent protection against dust and low-pressure water jets, while the back housing is rated at IP20 for standardized cabinet mounting. This dual-protection strategy ensures the display remains functional even in environments prone to environmental contaminants.

Technical Specifications

FAQs

Is the 6PPT30.101G-20W touchscreen capable?

The Power Panel T30 series is designed to provide high-quality visual feedback. Please consult the B&R device-specific datasheet to confirm the touch-panel layer configuration for your specific hardware revision.

Can this unit be mounted in environments with high moisture?

The front panel carries an IP65 rating, meaning it is protected against water jets. However, the rear of the unit is IP20; therefore, the unit must be installed in a cabinet that provides appropriate protection from the back.

How do I integrate this panel into my existing B&R network?

The T30 series is designed for native compatibility with the B&R ecosystem. Integration is typically managed via Automation Studio, using standard industrial communication protocols supported by the panel's controller interface.

What is the significance of the 8-bit per channel color depth?

The 8-bit per channel (RGB) depth allows for the reproduction of 16.7 million colors, ensuring that complex status graphics, gradient indicators, and diagnostic icons are rendered with high fidelity.

Installation and Operational Guidelines

• Panel Cutout Accuracy: When preparing the mounting hole in your control cabinet, ensure the dimensions strictly adhere to the manufacturer's installation template to maintain the seal integrity of the IP65-rated front frame.
• Cleaning and Maintenance: Use only a soft, non-abrasive cloth dampened with water or a mild, non-solvent-based cleaner to wipe the screen. Avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the anti-glare coating or the IP65 gasket.
• Thermal Environment: Ensure the air within the control cabinet is circulated. Even with a low power draw of 10.3 W, prolonged exposure to ambient temperatures exceeding the specified range for the T30 series can reduce the lifespan of the TFT backlight.
• Grounding: To prevent screen flickering or ghosting caused by electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensure the metal housing of the panel is properly bonded to the cabinet's protective earth bus.
