The TPC121-W513 is a 12.1-inch industrial touch monitor featuring a 1280×800 WXGA display, 350 cd/m² brightness, and a 5-wire single-point resistive touch panel. Powered by an Intel® Core™ i5 8th Generation processor, it integrates an industrial computing platform with a compact touch display, providing a practical solution for industrial automation, equipment control, power monitoring, and human-machine interface (HMI) applications.
Designed for continuous industrial operation, this industrial touch monitor features a slim 3mm front bezel, an IP65-rated front panel, fanless cooling, and a DC 12V–36V wide-voltage power input. Its aluminum alloy housing and multiple installation options make it suitable for embedded cabinets, industrial workstations, and equipment control systems.
With 16GB DDR4 memory, a 256GB SSD, multiple USB and Ethernet interfaces, and compatibility with Windows, Ubuntu, Kylin, and UOS, the TPC121-W513 offers both display functionality and computing capabilities in one integrated industrial platform.
1. 12.1-Inch WXGA Display with 1280×800 Resolution
The 12.1-inch TFT LCD panel provides a 1280×800 resolution with a 16:10 aspect ratio. This display format offers a practical balance between horizontal workspace and vertical information presentation, making it suitable for industrial control interfaces, equipment dashboards, and monitoring applications.
With 350 cd/m² brightness and a 1000:1 contrast ratio, the display provides clear visual information for typical indoor industrial environments. Its 85-degree viewing angle in all four directions supports visibility from different operating positions.
2. 5-Wire Resistive Touch Technology
The integrated resistive touch panel supports single-point operation using 5-wire technology. With light transmission of at least 78%, it maintains display visibility while providing a practical touch interface for industrial equipment.
Resistive touch technology is suitable for applications requiring reliable operation through direct physical contact. It can also be considered for industrial environments where operators may use gloves or a stylus, subject to the specific glove and operating conditions.
3. Intel Core i5 Industrial Computing Platform
Unlike a standalone touch monitor, the TPC121-W513 integrates an industrial motherboard based on an X86 architecture and an Intel® Core™ i5 8th Generation processor.
Its standard configuration includes 16GB DDR4 RAM and a 256GB SSD, providing computing resources for industrial control software, equipment management interfaces, and monitoring applications.
The platform supports Windows, Ubuntu, Kylin, UOS, and other compatible operating systems. No operating system is preinstalled, allowing customers to select and configure their preferred software environment.
4. Slim Design and IP65 Front Protection
The monitor features a 3mm super-slim front bezel, making it suitable for embedded installation in industrial cabinets and equipment panels.
Its front panel is rated IP65 for protection against dust and water exposure. This design helps protect the front-facing interface in demanding industrial environments. The rear enclosure and other sides should not be considered IP65-rated unless separately specified.
5. Wide Voltage and Temperature Operation
The TPC121-W513 supports DC 12V–36V input, offering flexibility when integrating the unit into different industrial power systems.
Its standard operating temperature range is -10°C to 60°C, while a customized -20°C to 70°C version is available upon request. The fanless design and support for 24-hour operation make it suitable for industrial systems requiring continuous operation.
