Pro-face GP4000 Series replacement and alternative options
Use these supply-network options as a starting point for an engineering check. We can also help source the original Pro-face part. Published series figures do not establish an exact-model or drop-in replacement: confirm ratings, fit, interfaces and approvals for your application.
Kinco's premium HMI line: quad-core 1.5/1.8 GHz, 1GB/8GB, dual Ethernet, metal housings and up to 15.6" Full HD, including a version with integrated buttons and E-stop.
Connected-manufacturing HMI family: G2 high-end quad-core panels to 15.6" and up to 2K, GL2 cost-effective with Wi-Fi/4G, plus GH and IoT GT/GW types.
Kinco's lowest-cost HMI range in 4.3", 7" and 10.1", with one project portable across all three sizes.
Figures are the highest published for each series and are not always measured the same way. A higher figure is not automatically a better choice: mounting, duty cycle, feedback, connectors and approvals matter too. An engineer will check the fit against your application before recommending anything.
Typical applications
What a HMI is
An HMI, or human-machine interface, is a touchscreen panel or display that lets operators monitor and control a machine. It communicates with PLCs, drives and controllers over Ethernet or serial links, showing status, alarms, trends and recipes, and sending operator commands. Screens are designed in configuration software with graphics, tags and scripts. Industrial HMIs are built for panel mounting, with front sealing typically to IP65 or higher, and come in a range of screen sizes.
When engineers choose a HMI
Choose an HMI when a machine needs a clear operator interface for settings, alarms, diagnostics and recipes beyond buttons and lamps. It improves usability and reduces panel wiring. The trade-offs are cost, configuration effort and cybersecurity for networked panels. For very simple machines, push buttons and indicator lamps may be enough; for complex plants with many machines, a PC-based SCADA system may be better.
How to specify the Pro-face GP4000 Series
Send these with your enquiry and an engineer can confirm the right GP4000 Series variant or an equivalent:
- Screen size and resolution
- Touch type and environment
- Communication protocols and PLC drivers
- Front panel IP rating
- Remote access and data logging
- Supply voltage
- Configuration software
Common mistakes to avoid
- Choosing a panel without drivers for the PLC
- Ignoring visibility in bright light
- Leaving out user access levels and passwords
- Not securing remote access
Pro-face GP4000 Series: frequently asked questions
Can you help replace Pro-face GP4000 Series or source the original?
Send the full model code, quantity and required date. Our engineers can check original-part availability and assess suitable alternatives, including supply-network options where appropriate. We confirm compatibility and any changes needed before recommending a replacement.
What is the Pro-face GP4000 Series?
Standard Pro-face touch HMI family from 3.5 to 12.1 inches with analogue resistive touch (2-point matrix touch on some 10.4 and 12.1 inch models), 24 V DC or 100–240 V AC supply, programmed in GP-Pro EX. It is made by Schneider Electric (Schneider Electric Japan Holdings Ltd.); Specify Motion can help source it or propose an equivalent.
Who makes the Pro-face GP4000 Series?
The Pro-face GP4000 Series is made by Pro-face (Schneider Electric (Schneider Electric Japan Holdings Ltd.)) and is listed here for engineers comparing options. Specify Motion is not affiliated with Schneider Electric (Schneider Electric Japan Holdings Ltd.); brand names are used only to identify the product.
Is there an alternative to the Pro-face GP4000 Series?
We can assess suitable replacement options. On published figures, Kinco FUTURE (F2 series) and Kinco GREEN (G2 / GL2 / GH / GT / GW) are options to assess from our supply network. An engineer confirms the fit against your application before recommending anything.
What does an HMI do?
An HMI displays machine status, alarms and data, and lets operators enter settings and commands. It connects to PLCs and drives over a network. It replaces many push buttons and indicators with configurable screens, and often adds recipe handling, trending and remote access.
What IP rating should an HMI have?
Panel-mounted HMIs typically have IP65 or higher front protection to resist dust and water jets, while the rear is protected inside the enclosure. In washdown areas, higher ratings or stainless bezels may be required. Check the rating applies when correctly mounted with its gasket.
