Allen-Bradley 2711P-B7C22A9P PanelView Plus 7 Performance

Allen-Bradley 2711P-B7C22A9P PanelView Plus 7 Performance HMI Terminal

Product Description

The 2711P-B7C22A9P (2711P-B7C22A9P) is a high-performance operator interface terminal from the Allen-Bradley PanelView Plus 7 Performance series. Engineered for complex visualization tasks, this HMI features a 6.5-inch color active-matrix TFT display with VGA resolution, providing sharp graphical representation for industrial automation systems. It uniquely offers a hybrid input configuration, utilizing both an analog-resistive touchscreen and a tactile keypad for maximum operator flexibility in heavy-duty environments.

Running on a Windows 10 IoT Core operating system, the 2711P-B7C22A9P (2711P-B7C22A9P) is optimized for FactoryTalk View Machine Edition (ME) applications. A standout feature of this Performance model is the integrated DLR (Device Level Ring) Ethernet switch, which provides high-speed network redundancy and simplifies wiring for complex control architectures. Designed for global industrial standards, it operates on a wide range 100–240V AC power supply, making it an ideal choice for high-availability machine-level monitoring.

Core Performance Features

• Device Level Ring (DLR) Support: The dual Ethernet ports allow the HMI to be part of a resilient ring network, ensuring that a single cable break does not result in a loss of visualization.

• Hybrid Input Interface: Allows operators to use the touchscreen for graphical navigation while relying on physical function keys for critical machine commands, even in high-vibration areas.

• AC Power Versatility: The internal 100–240V AC power supply eliminates the need for an external 24V DC power brick, streamlining control panel design.

• High-Resolution Graphics: The 640 x 480 VGA display provides significantly higher pixel density for 6.5-inch screens, allowing for more detailed alarm logs and trend charts.

• Advanced OS Capabilities: Windows 10 IoT Core provides improved security features and support for modern industrial software protocols.
