With advanced video performance once exclusive to LCD TVs, Westinghouse LCD industrial monitor chassis offer premium customized display solutions needed for the growing commercial application of large LCD products in kiosks, gaming devices, electronic signage and more.
The monitors’ HD-Grade™ flat-panel technology enables brighter images, higher contrast ratios, faster response times and wider viewing angles than typical computer monitors. The initial line – 17- and 19-inch LCD monitor chassis – is available now directly from the company.
