It provides low-latency, stable performance in HMI, SCADA, production line monitoring, and machine control software while maintaining energy efficiency.
True-Flat PCAP Multi-Touch Screen
The 21.5" Full HD (1920×1080) true-flat PCAP multi-touch screen offers a wide viewing area and intuitive use. The edge-to-edge glass surface provides an advantage in hygiene-critical areas thanks to its smooth structure that can be wiped in a single move; high touch sensitivity gains speed for the operator in workflows requiring fine adjustments.
Ready for Harsh Environments with IP65 Front Panel
The full IP65 protected front panel provides protection against dust and water splashes, making the EPC-821 suitable for environments requiring intensive cleaning, high risk of liquid contact, or particle generation. It supports stable operation in production lines, warehouses, service benches, and points of sale.
Fast Integration with Advanced I/O and USB-C
Rich I/O ports facilitate real-field integrations. The G35 configuration includes 2×USB 3.0 + 4×USB 2.0, while the G75U includes 4×USB 3.0 + 2×USB 2.0. 1×USB-C full-function port provides DisplayPort video output and USB Power Delivery (5V/3A, 12V/3A), allowing power and video transfer via a single cable.
Wireless Connectivity: Wi-Fi 6 & Bluetooth 5.2
Optional Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth 5.2 support lightens cabling while facilitating the management of mobile peripherals. Wireless connection saves time in fast commissioning and temporary installations; Bluetooth 5.2 offers stable connections for barcode scanners, printers, and sensors with low energy consumption.
Multi-OS Support
Thanks to support for Windows 10 IoT Enterprise, Linux, and Android 13, EPC-821 adapts to your existing automation infrastructure and corporate software strategy. Multi-platform software compatibility facilitates secure deployment of versions with centralized management and standardizes different work sites with a single model.
Why is EPC-821 Preferred?
Powerful & Flexible for Industrial Automation
Multi-core Intel® Alder Lake-N and Core Ultra processor options provide the performance needed for large-screen HMI, SCADA panels, and production line monitoring applications. The fanless architecture offers a quieter and lower-maintenance platform for factory environments requiring 24/7 continuous operation.
True-Flat Design Suitable for Hygiene Criteria
The edge-to-edge glass surface shortens cleaning times thanks to its flat and continuous form. It facilitates fast and effective disinfection of operator panels in food, pharmaceutical, packaging, and hygiene-oriented production areas. The true-flat design offers a modern and reassuring user experience in kiosks and self-service stations.
Field-Oriented I/O and Certifications
USB-C, Powered USB, cash drawer port, multiple USB and serial port options speed up integration with field devices, registers, barcode scanners, and peripherals. CE Class B, FCC Class B, and LVD certifications respond to corporate security and compliance requirements; making EPC-821 a reliable core component for industrial projects.
Application Areas of
EPC-821 Panel PC
E-Life EPC-821 Industrial Panel PC offers a high-performance, large-screen solution compliant with hygiene criteria for factory automation, production line monitoring, HMI/SCADA applications, machine interfaces, warehouse and logistics processes, as well as kiosks and self-service stations.
Factory Automation & HMI
As an operator panel, machine interface, and process screen on production lines, EPC-821 transforms complex data into readable, interactive interfaces with its wide Full HD screen and sensitive touch structure; helping to reduce operator errors.
Production & Process Monitoring
High resolution, large graphics, and clear display of alarms are critically important in SCADA and production monitoring applications. EPC-821 serves as a central viewing point in control rooms, on-line panels, and process stations with its 21.5" screen.
Logistics, Warehouse & Service Benches
In warehouse management, shipment planning, part receiving, and service bench applications, EPC-821 accelerates workflows by working integrated with barcode scanners, scales, printers, and other peripherals through its wide screen, multiple USB, and serial ports.
Kiosk, POS & Self-Service Systems
The true-flat glass surface and modern design make EPC-821 ideal for kiosks, self-check-in, information displays, and POS stations. It can be easily adapted to payment and identity verification scenarios with its 5MP camera, optional 3-way MSR, Powered USB, and cash drawer port.
21.5" Full HD True-Flat
PCAP Multi-Touch Screen
EPC-821's 21.5" Full HD (1920×1080) true-flat PCAP multi-touch screen offers a wide visibility area and intuitive use. The edge-to-edge glass surface creates an advantage in hygiene-critical areas by providing a smooth structure that can be wiped in a single motion. High touch sensitivity helps operators work faster and more accurately in production and quality control processes requiring fine adjustments.
