Why Choose GTUX for Demanding Applications?

The main advantage of GTUX is its combination of industrial visualization and environmental durability.

Rugged HMI Design

GTUX display modules are designed for demanding environments and provide high levels of front-panel protection when correctly installed.

High-Brightness Display

The GTUX display range uses high-brightness TFT colour LCD technology, with a specified brightness of approximately 1000 cd/m², helping improve visibility in bright environments.

Wide Temperature Capability

Depending on the display model, specified operating ambient temperatures extend to approximately -30°C to +65°C, -30°C to +70°C, or -20°C to +60°C.

Modular Construction

The system separates the display and processing box, allowing the HMI architecture to be configured around the application requirements.

Multiple Communication Interfaces

The box module provides Ethernet, serial and USB connectivity, with additional interfaces and fieldbus expansion supported according to configuration.

A Modular HMI Architecture

One of the defining characteristics of Harmony GTUX is its separate display and box-module design.

for the front panel.

This makes the platform relevant to equipment exposed to:

• Dust

• Water

• Outdoor conditions

• Industrial contaminants

• Temperature variation

• Vibration

• Harsh operating environments

For applications involving oils, chemicals or corrosive environments, Schneider's environmental guidance should be reviewed carefully because resistance depends on the specific substance and installation conditions.

Communication & Connectivity

GTUX provides multiple communication interfaces for integration with industrial automation equipment.

The HMIG3X box module provides:

Ethernet

Two RJ-45 Ethernet interfaces support communication standards including:

• 10BASE-T
