The 6AV6642-0EA01-3AX0 is a Siemens SIMATIC series multi-panel HMI featuring a 5.7-inch TFT color touch screen. This terminal operates in portrait mode and provides user interaction with a display resolution of 320×240 pixels.
Retentive data storage function
Adopts standard flush mounting method
5.7-inch TFT true color display
6AV6642-0EA01-3AX0 features a front housing equipped with a highly durable sealing gasket that achieves an IP65 protection rating (dust-tight and water-jet resistant) on the front and IP20 on the rear once properly embedded into the control cabinet panel cutout, providing excellent resistance to high humidity, widespread environmental dust, and industrial acid, alkali, or oil contamination.
The device adopts a standard flush mounting method and comes with specialized mounting clamps and screw accessories included in the box. During on-site installation, tightening the clamps from the back of the control cabinet to the specified torque establishes a rigid connection with the control panel surface, effectively absorbing continuous high-frequency mechanical vibrations from surrounding large pump sets or fans and preventing electrical failures caused by poor contact or physical loosening.
The 6AV6642-0EA01-3AX0 SIMATIC MP 177 Touch Panel may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (Siemens).

Conventional Thermal Power Generation
Serves as a local operation terminal for boiler auxiliary systems to display pressure, temperature, and alarm interlocks in real time.
Automotive Manufacturing & Assembly
Installed on welding or assembly line consoles to select processing recipes and monitor conveyor status.
Petroleum & Natural Gas Petrochemical
Embedded in explosion-proof purged cabinets to configure local parameters and monitor start/stop sequences of centrifugal compressor auxiliary oil systems.
Metallurgy & Steel Rolling
Configured on cold-zone consoles of blast furnace charging systems or reheating furnaces to display equipment trajectories and store recipe parameters.
Cement & Building Materials
Deployed as a local operator station for rotary kilns or batching scales to withstand high-dust environments and enable local field tuning of downstream PLCs.
Pulp & Paper Production
Installed on rewinder or dryer section control enclosures to adjust roller speed, tension setpoints, and paper-break alarm cues.
When using the 6AV6642-0EA01-3AX0, configuration projects must be developed and transferred via specialized WinCC Flexible 2008 software, and the front sealing gasket must be tightened to the specified torque during installation to maintain the IP65 rating and absorb high-frequency vibrations from large pumps or fans. Since Siemens discontinued this panel in 2014, subsequent maintenance or replacement relies on surplus spare parts channels like Apter Power for stock availability and technical support.
The 6AV6642-0EA01-3AX0 adopts an industrial-grade analog resistive touchscreen, supporting operator touch interactions even while wearing heavy insulating work gloves. Its backlight features a long-life design with a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of up to 50,000 hours.
