Product Overview
When industrial environments demand clear, reliable operator interfaces, the Mitsubishi GT1685M-STBD delivers exceptional performance. This 65,536-color HMI from the GOT1000 series provides a 15-inch TFT color LCD with high brightness and wide viewing angles. With a 15MB built-in flash memory, it handles complex project data efficiently. The 24VDC power supply ensures stable operation in demanding factory settings.
Technical Specifications Breakdown
The GT1685M-STBD offers a screen resolution of 800 x 600 dots (SVGA). Its display intensity reaches 470 cd/m², with an 8-step adjustment for varying ambient light. The backlight is a cold-cathode fluorescent tube with a life of approximately 50,000 hours at 25°C. Power consumption is 40W or less, dropping to 26W with the backlight off. Inrush current is 12A or less for 55ms at maximum load. These specs translate to lower energy costs and extended service intervals, directly improving total cost of ownership.
Industry Applications
In manufacturing lines, the GT1685M-STBD serves as a central operator interface. Its 65,536 colors and 800 x 600 resolution provide clear visualization of process data. The RS-232 and RS-422/485 interfaces enable communication with PLCs and controllers. Ethernet (100BASE-TX) supports data transfer and gateway functions, reducing integration costs. The IP67-rated front panel withstands washdown environments, minimizing downtime.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the GT1685M-STBD into a panel cutout of 302 x 228 mm. Use clamp terminals for M3 screws (RAV1.25-3, V2-S3.3, V2-N3A, FV2-N3A) with a tightening torque of 0.5 to 0.8 N·m. Connect 24VDC power with a permissible instant failure time within 10ms. Ensure noise resistance with a noise simulator at 500Vp-p. Follow Mitsubishi's guidelines for wiring to avoid signal interference.
Maintenance & Reliability
The backlight is replaceable, with a life of approximately 52,000 hours at 25°C. The touch panel lasts 1,000,000 operations. The battery (GT15-BAT) backs up clock data for about 5 years. Regular inspection of connections and cleaning of the touch surface extend product life. These features reduce replacement costs and unplanned downtime.
Compatibility & Integration
The GT1685M-STBD integrates via RS-232, RS-422/485, Ethernet, USB (host and device), and a CF card slot. It communicates with Mitsubishi PLCs and third-party controllers. The optional function board and extension unit slots allow future upgrades. This flexibility lowers integration expenses and simplifies system expansion.
