Modular Systems
Our products are characterised by a high level of integral modularity.
Our unique strength lies in the maximum scalability and customisability of our products; you put together your own touch panel from our large portfolio of individual components. This means that even standard products can be adapted to individual customer requirements through the appropriate combination of different housing shapes, display sizes, architectures and numerous add-ons and upgrades.
As a result, many solutions can be implemented without expensive development costs. We would be happy to introduce you to our extensive catalogue of components in person.
If the selection from our modular panel kit does not fully meet your requirements, we can also develop a completely customised design with appropriate system integration. Just send us an enquiry.
We support you throughout the entire project. When developing customer-specific products, we define your requirements precisely at the beginning of the process, which enables us to create a corresponding design or function concept. The final design is developed using draft designs, principal designs and functional models, taking all of the relevant ergonomic factors into account.
A detailed specification document defines the framework data that provides the basis for hardware and software development as well as the technical specifications for the design.
PC solutions — microprocessor architectures
With our box PCs and the PC version of our touch panels, you can choose between two different microprocessor technologies: Our powerful XELO series with a x86-based CPU, or the ARM architecture of our CE range for less demanding applications.
For XELO panel products, we use extremely high-performance AMD ® GC-415GA Quad Core 1.5 GHz 64-bit or Intel® Core™ i5-5350U Dual Core 1.8 GHz 64-bit processors.
Our CE product line uses ARM microprocessor technology processors. Choose between NVIDIA® Colibri Tegra™ 2 T20 Dual Core 1.0 GHz 32 bit or Freescale® i.MX6DL Dual Core 1.0 GHz 32 bit
For the main memory, you can choose up to 16GB DDR3. For data storage, we can provide a HDD of up to 500 GB in the individual panel PC versions.
If you need a powerful industrial computer, you can choose between AMD and Intel Dual Core processors.

SMART Distance Link
For particularly large installations, it is helpful if the box PC and the operating monitor can be positioned further apart. This is exactly why we developed our extender solution with transmitter and SMART monitor. The system is based on the TCP/IP standard, which makes it easy to integrate into existing communication networks.
The extender can be used to bridge distances of up to 100 m between the industrial PC and monitor. The SMART monitors can display video, touch and USB signals that are transmitted via a standard Ethernet cable. All housing variants of the touch panel series can also be used as SMART monitors. All SMART monitors can be operated via PoE as a one-wire solution.
Another advantage is the parallel operation of several monitors (1:5 operation) simultaneously via one PC. With the help of an extender and an additional switch, up to five SMART monitors can be operated simultaneously. Again, the components can be located up to 100 metres apart using an Ethernet cable.
The transmitters are equipped with a 24-VDC Phoenix interface, as well as two USB host 2.0 connections. A 1-Gbit Ethernet interface is provided for transmission.
For detailed information on our housings, see Housing versions.
If you would like to use your own monitors, we also offer a SMART C-Link bundle comprised of a transmitter and receiver. This enables the receiver to be connected directly to any standard monitor.
Touch Monitors
Touch monitors are ideal for HMI solutions. The non-intelligent screens can be used to display operating data.
Monitors can be used in a wide range of applications. For this reason, you retain full flexibility when selecting a housing shape, with all standard variants available for you to choose from.
Christ monitors can, for example, be used as an imaging unit in machine operation. We have also developed solutions with features that make them ideal for installation in switchgear cabinets.
Our non-intelligent touch panels fit into your machine concept both visually and practically thanks to the user-friendly interfaces, all of which are located on one side of the device.
Diagonal measurement and resolution
Our numerous display sizes cover a wide range of applications.
From small 7'' displays up to 23.8'' models, we offer various sizes and resolutions.
Here is an overview of our panel sizes:
| Display | Aspect ratio |
|---|---|
| 7" | 5:3 |
| 10,1" | 16:10 |
| 10,4" | 4:3 |
| 12,1" | 16:10 |
| 15" | 4:3 |
| 15,6" | 16:9 |
| 18,5" | 16:9 |
| 21,5" | 16:9 |
| 23,8" | 16:9 |
Integrated UPS — the invisible helper
Our integrated UPS (uninterruptible power supply) is installed inconspicuously in the existing housing. Through its usable energy storage of 400 J, the Christ UPS provides a bridging period of up to 30 seconds to ensure a controlled shutdown in the event of a power loss affecting the computer. This prevents data loss in the event of a voltage drop.
If required, the solution can also be expanded with external energy modules and can be used with surrounding temperatures of up to 50°C.
With up to 500,000 charging cycles, the maintenance-free supercaps are perfect for use in 24/7 constant operation.
