Touch Screen GX10/GX20

Power generation, process automation, and factory automation in manufacturing industries require rigorous, continuous monitoring in the control room. The GX series is Yokogawa's latest recorder offering for industrial automation.

The GX series is an industry-first multi-point touch panel, to improve intuitive and smart operator control. Users can scroll, pan, zoom historical data, and even write freehand messages on its dust-proof and water-proof display. The Yokogawa GX series delivers industry leading reliability and measurement accuracy. Its custom graphics accommodates application or process-specific displays, while a wide range of communication protocols guarantee compatibility with your network architecture. It's simple for operators to view and retrieve past data with automatic email and FTP notifications.

Highly secure with proven reliability

Choice of mounting designs

Be confident that recorded data is saved

Measured and calculated data is continuously saved to secure, internal non-volatile memory. At manual or scheduled intervals, the files in memory are copied to the removable media. In addition, the files can be copied and archived to an FTP server.

Because of the inherent reliability and security of non-volatile memory, the possibility of losing data under any operating condition or power failure event is extremely small.

Select file formats according to your application

For increased security, measured data can be saved in binary format. This format is very difficult to decipher or modify in traditional text editors or other programs. To enable easy and direct opening of the data in text editors or spreadsheet programs, choose text format. This allows you to work with your measurement data without dedicated software.

ASCI data display

Binary data display

21 CFR Part 11 support (/AS option)

With the advanced security function option, GX/GP supports the USA FDA's Title 21 CFR Part 11 regulation. It gives you access to a login function for requiring user names, IDs, and passwords, plus electronic signatures , audit trails, an anti-tampering function, and other security features.
