12 inch Touch Screen Monitors - Perfect for Outdoor Applications

Outdoor touch screen monitor applications have traditionally suffered from problems with moisture from rain or inadequate ventilation fogging screens or inducing moisture within the display module.  Outdoor touch equipment users frequently wear gloves. ATM, vending kiosk, and industrial equipment manufacturers have been looking for ways to make those points moot.  One example of such an effective touch screen monitor is the LBT-1212OC 12-inch touch screen monitor from Caltron, Inc.

The Caltron LBT-1212OC 12-inch touch screen monitor is a heavy duty monitor built with industrial grade components and materials.  Its unique design and construction makes this monitor durable and especially a great choice for applications where conditions might be an issue. These touch screen monitors also feature LCD panels with robust touch sensor capabilities enabling users to easily and quickly interface with the monitors. The electrical components used in the Caltron industrial monitors are of the highest standard available.  They are capable of withstanding a variety of environmental conditions without damage.

High Resolution PCap Display for Better User Experience

With a high resolution 1024x768 display, which is higher than other similar monitors in the market, the Caltron 12 inch industrial touch screen monitor is a favorite among healthcare equipment manufacturers and those in the industrial control sector. The 12” screen featured in the monitor is also an appreciated aspect for these industries, displaying more information than on similar equipment screens.

The LBT-1212OC monitor’s PCap interface allows for better multi-finger touch capability when compared to the Resistive and Surface Acoustic Wave touchscreens - which are featured in other brands’ touch screens. This PCap feature is especially perfect for users in the retail payment and gaming sector, where the screens are highly interactive in those applications.  Medical applications also like the ability to use the display while wearing gloves.

Another unique feature of this monitor is that it is fanless. Instead of requiring a cooling fan to remove excess heat, the LBT-1212OC gets adequate ventilation from slots and holes designed strategically within the monitor’s frame. Being fanless is a great advantage for quieter operations of the screen, smaller footprint for board and equipment space, also extends the product lifespan.

Easy for users and great for equipment manufacturers, the LBT-1212OC is a great option for ATM’s, shopping kiosk machines, medical equipment, and information booths.
