Elo 1598L 15" Open-Frame LCD Touchscreen Monitor – 4:3, 500 nit Brightness, 35 ms

The Elo 1598L is a compact, purpose-built 15-inch open-frame touchscreen display designed for embedded and installation-ready environments. With a slim profile and narrow outside dimensions, this monitor slides seamlessly into kiosks, point-of-sale stations, industrial controllers, and custom enclosures. It combines a bright, high-contrast panel with an energy-saving LED backlight to deliver crisp visuals and reliable touch response in demanding environments. Built for open-frame installations, the 1598L offers a sturdy, space-efficient solution for interactive applications that require durable, long-life operation and easy integration.

• The Elo 1598L features a precise 15-inch LCD panel with a classic 4:3 aspect ratio, ideal for legacy software, analog displays, and applications where square-like content framing is required. Its open-frame design gives designers and system integrators flexibility to integrate the display into custom enclosures, kiosks, countertop units, or vending machines without adding bulk.
• High-brightness performance with 500 nits brightness ensures readable, vibrant images even in brighter environments or with ambient lighting. This level of brightness helps interactive interfaces stand out in retail spaces, hotels, museums, control rooms, and public information kiosks where quick glance readability matters.
• Energy-efficient LED backlighting reduces overall power consumption and minimizes heat output compared with older backlight technologies. The result is a cooler, more reliable display that fits well in enclosed units and heat-sensitive installations while helping to lower operating costs over the device’s life cycle.
• Responsive touch experience is a core feature of the Elo 1598L, enabling intuitive interaction for users across self-service, wayfinding, ticketing, and data-entry tasks. The open-frame touchscreen is designed for durability in heavy-use applications and is compatible with common operating systems and calibration routines to maintain accurate input over time.
• Built to endure industrial and commercial environments, the 1598L supports an extended temperature range and rugged construction suitable for mounting inside enclosures, behind protective panels, or in areas with challenging environmental conditions. Its open-frame form factor helps maximize airflow and cooling while minimizing the footprint inside compact installations.
