About the MTP1200 Unified Comfort
About the MTP1200 Unified Comfort
The Siemens 6AV2128-3MB36-0AX1 is a SIMATIC HMI MTP1200 Unified Comfort operator panel, a neutral touch model with a 12.1-inch widescreen TFT display at 1280 x 800 pixels and 16.7 million colors. IP65 at the front and IP20 at the rear, it runs on 24V DC, communicates over PROFINET, and carries marine approvals from ABS, BV, and DNV alongside an environmental product declaration.

Selection Notes
This is the neutral, non-PRO MTP1200: it drops the support-arm/pedestal mounting hardware and the FM hazardous-area approvals of the PRO line but keeps IP65 front sealing and adds an environmental product declaration with a published 219.63 kg CO2 eq total global warming potential figure, useful when a project tracks embodied carbon. The ABS, BV, and DNV marine approvals make it a fit for onboard control panels where classification society sign-off is required; IP20 at the rear still calls for a sealed enclosure.
