Proface PFX and ST6000 HMI panel replacement guide
Use this guide when replacing Proface or Pro-face HMI hardware by exact part number. Outdwella focuses on part-number matching, condition clarity, regional sourcing notes, and practical pre-order checks for industrial teams buying replacement operator-interface hardware across North America, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East.
Featured exact-part pages
- PFXST6400WADE Pro-face ST6000 7-inch HMI panel: start here when the installed panel label or machine bill of material shows PFXST6400WADE.
- PFXST6600WADE Pro-face ST6000 HMI panel: compare when the installed ST6000 panel uses the 6600 model code rather than 6400.
- PFXGP4301TAD Pro-face GP4000 HMI panel: use for GP4000 exact-part replacement searches.
- PFXGP4402WADW Pro-face GP4000E HMI panel: check the full suffix before substituting with adjacent PFXGP panels.

Part-number checklist
- Match the complete manufacturer part number, including letters between PFXST, PFXSTW, PFXGP, GP, and any suffix after the model number.
- Confirm display size, resolution, touch type, front-panel dimensions, mounting cutout, cabinet depth, and power input.
- Check communication ports such as Ethernet, RS-232C, RS-422/485, USB host, USB device, and any expansion interface.
- Confirm GP-Pro EX, GP-Pro PB, project backup, runtime version, firmware, transfer cable, passwords, alarms, recipes, language files, and PLC driver requirements before replacing a live machine panel.
Common substitution risks
A similar-looking Proface HMI can fail as a replacement if the suffix, screen size, port layout, project runtime, controller driver, or mounting cutout differs. For urgent downtime purchases, compare the nameplate, cabinet drawing, project file, communication settings, cable set, and installed power wiring before choosing a substitute.
Regional sourcing notes
- North America: confirm UL/cUL documentation expectations, delivery timing, and who owns commissioning.
- Europe: account for VAT, import duties, CE/UKCA documentation expectations, brokerage, and the Europe landed-cost uplift where applicable.
- Australia: verify import timing, machine safety documentation, and local electrical expectations.
- Middle East: confirm import paperwork, plant-site receiving requirements, and local commissioning responsibility.
FAQ
Is PFXST6400WADE the same as PFXST6600WADE?
No. Treat them as separate exact-part searches unless your machine documentation explicitly permits substitution. Check screen class, mounting, project requirements, and port layout.
Can I replace a Proface GP panel with an ST6000 panel?
Only after engineering review. Check software migration, display size, mounting, wiring, driver support, project conversion, and machine validation.
What should I check before ordering a Pro-face HMI replacement?
Confirm the full part number, project backup, power, ports, cutout, cable set, firmware/runtime, and controller protocol.
Does Outdwella use manufacturer names because it is authorized?
No. Outdwella is an independent reseller. Manufacturer names and part numbers are used only to identify compatibility and replacement searches.
