With a focus on safety and productivity, Winmate offers computing solutions that have been designed to improve the efficiency of these industries.

One of the most important aspects of any industrial computing solution is its ability to operate safely in hazardous areas. This is especially true for the refining and petrochemical industries, where there are many hazards that could cause serious harm to workers or damage to equipment.

Winmate’s ATEX Panel PC and touch screen operator interfaces are specifically designed to meet the international standards for operation and monitoring in hazardous areas. These products have been certified for use in ATEX Class I Division 2, ATEX 94/9/EC Zone 2, and IECEx Zone 2 hazardous locations, ensuring that they are safe and reliable.

Winmate’s ATEX panel PCs and touch screen operator interfaces are available in both premium and standard modular designs, and they are constructed with completely sealed stainless steel type 4/4X, IP 65/66, NEMA 4/4X enclosures with environmental ratings (U.L. 50 or IEC 529). This means that the entire HMI system, including fully sealed I/O ports, is protected from the elements and can withstand the harsh conditions found in the refining and petrochemical industries. The touch panel PCs also support a wide operating temperature range from -20 to +60°C, making them suitable for use in extreme environments.

Their modular design allows them to be easily customized and configured to meet the specific needs of each application. The premium IEx Series is powered by Intel Core i5, the standard IEx Series is powered by Intel Celeron, and the compact IEx Series is powered by Intel Atom processors. Additionally, these products come with pre-installed operating systems, including Windows 10 IoT Enterprise (LTSB), Windows 9, or Linux, making them easy to use and integrate into existing workflows.

Field service workers in the refining and petrochemical industries face many challenges when working in remote locations and unfamiliar environments. Every minute of downtime results in lost revenue, and access to critical information and wireless communications is essential for fast service. Winmate provides rugged mobile solutions that are capable of increasing productivity in the field. Our ATEX panel PCs and touch screen operator interfaces are built to withstand the rigors of the harshest environments and are designed to improve field workers’ efficiency and productivity.
