The Siemens MP370-12 is a high-performance, industrial-grade touch glass screen and HMI panel, purpose-built for Siemens’ SIMATIC Multi Panel series. As a direct replacement matching the original Siemens MP370-12 12.1-inch operator interface, this panel is engineered to deliver identical form, fit, and function to OEM specifications, making it the ideal solution for equipment life extension, faulty touch screen replacement, and low-cost modernization of existing Siemens automation systems.
Designed for the harshest industrial environments, this
MP370-12 touch panel features a rugged 12.1-inch TFT color LCD display with a 5-wire analog resistive touch system, supporting gloved operation and stylus input for factory floor use. It serves as a reliable Human-Machine Interface (HMI) for real-time process visualization, system monitoring, and operator control, fully compatible with
Siemens S7-300 and S7-400 PLC systems, and widely deployed in manufacturing, energy, water treatment, and industrial processing sectors.
