Description
1. Product Description
The PP836A 3BSE042237R2 is a high-performance operator panel from ABB’s Panel 800 family, designed for industrial automation and human-machine interface (HMI) applications. With a 10.4-inch color touchscreen (800×600 resolution), it offers intuitive control and monitoring of processes in manufacturing, energy, and infrastructure sectors. Powered by an Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz processor, 1 GB DDR2 RAM, and 4 GB SSD, the panel runs Windows Embedded CE 6.0, supporting advanced HMI features like real-time data visualization, alarm management, and recipe handling. The PP836A 3BSE042237R2 integrates seamlessly with ABB’s automation ecosystem (e.g., PLCs, drives) via Ethernet, USB, and RS-232 ports, enabling efficient system management.
