PS Series PowerStations

Match the Right Display Size with the Right Functionality...
at the Right Price

CTC has taken its popular PowerStation line and enhanced it with more displays and hardware configuration options. With the modular PS Series, you can get the hardware and software features you need at the price point you want. These PowerStations offer you more value at a very competitive price - plus you get an open platform to run advanced HMI capabilities such as recipe handling, trending or reporting. The PS Series simply gives you more options than any other OI solution.

The PS5 Function Key PowerStation model includes arrows for cursor control and features 40 function keys (20 plus Shift) for operators who prefer traditional function key operation. This flat-panel workstation features Interact's Core Modules (Panel Tools, Panel Alarms, Graphics and Networking Modules), and all drivers. The PS5 can run additional Interact modules; it also supports networking options.

You can literally mix and match displays, expansion capabilities, hardware configurations, and software functionality to get the right workstation for your machine. To build your custom operator interface to get the best possible solution for your application...
