In an industrial environment, every design detail matters – not only for aesthetics, but above all to increase the durability and thermal efficiency of the device. Aluminum Bezel Style is a solution in which the screen frame is made of aluminum or finished with this material. This gives the device an immediate, premium look and significantly increases the feeling of solidity. Aluminum, being a more durable and rigid material than plastic, provides better protection against scratches and mechanical damage, crucial in harsh operating conditions. Furthermore, in addition to its aesthetic appeal, this metal dissipates heat more efficiently, which is essential for processor stability, while maintaining the device's slim profile without compromising structural strength.

The Aluminum Bezel Style frames the screen with aluminum, giving the device a premium look and enhancing durability. Being more durable and rigid than plastic, aluminum provides better protection against damage and dissipates heat more efficiently, maintaining a slim profile.

*At the customer's request, it is possible to order the BiBox 238-I58 device in the Aluminum Bezel Style version. Click on the configurator at the top of the page to go to the product settings. 

Modern panels must ensure excellent readability in any workspace, especially outdoors. The BiBox 238-I58 v.6 is a durable computer panel designed for efficient outdoor operation. Its screen boasts an impressive 1000 nits of brightness, crucial for excellent readability. This optimization makes operation and data monitoring comfortable and hassle-free, minimizing operator eye fatigue regardless of lighting conditions.

REsistance

In industrial environments, where dust and moisture are common, absolute tightness of the device's enclosure is crucial. The International Protection (IP) standard is a universal measure of this resistance, guaranteeing reliability in the harshest conditions. The IP65 standard means that the device enclosure provides complete protection against dust ingress (number '6'). It is also resistant to water jets from any direction (number '5'). This makes it an ideal solution for applications in harsh environments where equipment is constantly exposed to external factors, and operators can safely clean with water jets. Note that this standard protects against water jets, but not against immersion in water.

Firts digit              Protection level                Second digit
No special protection		No special protection
Protection from solid objects greater than 50mm in diameter		Protection from dripping water
Protection from object not greater than 12mm in diameter		Protection from vertically dripping water (tilted up to 15°)
Protection from object not greater than 2,5mm in diameter		Protection from sprayed water (tilted up to 60°)
Protection from object not greater than 1mm in diameter		Protection from splashed water
Complete protection against contact, Protection against dust deposit		Protection from water projected from a nozzle
Complete protectionm against contact, protection from infiltration of dust		Protection against heavy seas, or powerful jets of water
		Protection against immersion
		Protection against complete, continuous submersion in water

Reliability in extreme conditions is essential. The BiBox 238-I58 panel PC is designed to operate in the harshest environments. Its rugged construction allows for stable operation across a wide temperature range: from -10°C to 60°C, as well as high relative humidity up to 95% (non-condensing). This thermal durability also extends to safe storage at temperatures ranging from -20°C to 70°C, ensuring complete operational and logistical flexibility.
