FORTEC UK Introduces Advanced Marine Full Glass Panel Mount Monitors for Demanding Maritime Environments

FORTEC UK is expanding access to advanced maritime display technology with its N-Line Full Glass Panel Mount Monitors, designed to deliver reliable performance, excellent visibility and durability in demanding marine environments. Manufactured by FORTEC Benelux, a specialist in rugged maritime display solutions, the N-Line range combines innovative engineering with practical functionality for modern vessels.

Designed for Reliable Marine Operations

Marine environments demand display technology capable of operating continuously while withstanding challenging conditions, including moisture, temperature variations and changing light levels. The N-Line Full Glass Panel Mount Monitors are engineered to meet these requirements, making them suitable for ship navigation bridges, vessel control systems and other professional maritime applications.

Featuring a sleek, full-glass front and robust steel construction, these monitors are designed for seamless flush mounting into desks and recessed panels. Their IP65 or IP67 front protection, depending on the model, provides additional protection against water and environmental exposure.

Three Display Models to Meet Different Requirements

The N-Line range offers three display options to accommodate different marine system requirements.

• N-Line N150KGE: A 15-inch TFT monitor featuring XGA resolution of 1024 × 768, standard brightness of 500 nits and optional brightness of 1500 nits. It offers IP65 front protection and an operating temperature range of -30°C to +80°C.

• N-Line N190KGE: A 19-inch TFT monitor with SXGA resolution of 1280 × 1024, standard brightness of 400 nits and optional brightness of 1500 nits. It provides IP65 front protection and supports operating temperatures from -10°C to +70°C.

• N-Line N240KG: A 24-inch Full HD monitor with 1920 × 1080 resolution, standard brightness of 300 nits and optional brightness of 1000 nits. Featuring IP67 front protection, it is designed for demanding marine installations.

All three models offer multiple video inputs, including VGA, DVI-D, HDMI and Composite Video, alongside dimming functionality and optional DNV Type Approval.

Enhanced Visibility in Challenging Lighting Conditions

Clear visibility is essential for marine navigation and monitoring operations. The N-Line monitors incorporate several features designed to improve display performance in changing lighting conditions.

High-brightness display options support excellent sunlight readability, while anti-glare glass helps reduce reflections. Optical bonding minimises internal reflections and helps prevent condensation, supporting consistently clear viewing.

Selected configurations also offer projected capacitive touchscreen technology with raindrop detection, allowing intuitive interaction in demanding marine environments.

Designed for Flexible Installation and Integration

Although primarily designed for flush panel mounting, the N-Line monitors can also be installed using VESA brackets for stand or wall mounting. This flexibility allows shipbuilders, marine equipment manufacturers and system integrators to incorporate the displays into different vessel layouts and control environments.

Additional features include remote dimming from 0.05% to 100%, a wide input voltage range of 9–36V and electrically isolated power supplies with EMC filtering in DNV approval configurations.

DNV Type Approval for Marine Applications

The N-Line series offers DNV Type Approved configurations, providing shipyards, vessel operators and system integrators with confidence in the monitors' suitability for marine applications.

The range builds on FORTEC Benelux's established experience in maritime display engineering, supported by FORTEC UK's technical expertise and local customer support. Its worldwide applications include fully glass-front IP67 monitors selected for on-deck use in Palma de Mallorca and N150KGE high-brightness displays installed by Active Marine Electronics in Australia.
