Optical Bonding for Maritime Environments

The monitor features in‑house optical bonding to enhance visibility and durability in maritime environments. By filling the gap between the LCD module and cover glass with resin, optical bonding reduces ambient reflections and prevents condensation that can cause fogging during harsh temperature changes.

Optical Bonding

In testing, the MDF2701W with 350 cd/m2 brightness and optical bonding delivered superior readability and reduced reflections compared to a non‑bonded screen with 500 cd/m2. To achieve visibility comparable to the MDF2701W, a non‑bonded monitor would require an estimated brightness of 1160 cd/m2

Exceptional Visibility

Wide Brightness Range

The monitor has a wide dimming range of 0.05 to 350 cd/m2. This allows operators to adjust to the appropriate brightness level for optimal visibility during the day or at night.

Wide Brightness Range

Clear View with Wide Viewing Angles

The panel features wide viewing angles that minimize changes in contrast and gradation to maintain excellent visibility when the screen is viewed from the side.

Reduced Screen Reflections

The screen has an anti‑reflection (AR) finish to reduce glare from ambient light, and an anti‑fingerprint (AF) finish to minimize smudges and residue from touch.

Designed for Maritime

Calibrated for ECDIS

To meet the specialized needs of ECDIS systems, backlight brightness, gamma, and RGB color settings are factory-calibrated for accurate color reproduction. The monitor complies with IEC 61174, IEC 62288, and IEC 62388 (CAT 1) international standards for ECDIS and RADAR applications.

Maritime Classifications

The monitor is approved and certified by major maritime classifications, such as DNV (Germany / Norway), LR (UK), ABS (USA), NK (Japan), and EU RO MR to meet IMO (International Maritime Organization) regulations.

Durability and Reliability

Protection in Harsh Environments

The monitor offers durability for use in harsh maritime environments, complying with the conditions for temperature, humidity, and vibration as defined in the IEC 60945 international standard for maritime navigation and radio communication equipment and systems. The monitor’s front is rated IP65, making it dust‑tight and protected against pressurized water jets, while the rear is rated IP22 for protection against the ingress of solid objects and water drops.

Power Supply Redundancy

Multiple power inputs allow you to power the monitor using either a DC or AC connection, or both in parallel for redundancy.

Long-Term Reliability

The monitor is built for 24-hour use and is backed by a 3-year manufacturer's warranty for long-term reliability.

Convenient Installation

Complete Connection

The monitor is equipped with DisplayPortTM, DVI-D, and D-Sub inputs. It also equipped with USB Type-B and RS-232C communication interfaces.

DuraVision MDF2701W

Flexible Positioning

The monitor can be installed and operated horizontally or tilted downward up to 30° without affecting performance. With the optional tilt stand, it also supports ceiling mounting for flexible positioning.

Optional Tilt Stand

An optional stand (MDS‑T272) allows the monitor to be tilt adjusted in 15° increments. The stand meets the requirements of major maritime classifications, including DNV (Norway/Germany), LR (UK), ABS (USA), NK (Japan), and EU RO MR.

Some certifications are pending approval.


When mounted upright on a desk or table, it offers upward tilt of up to 60° and downward tilt of up to 30°.

The MDS-272 stand is not compatible with previous generation 25.5-inch maritime monitors. Likewise, the 25.5-inch dedicated stand (MDS-T261) cannot be used to mount the MDF2701W / MDF2701W-T.

 

Fanless Operation

EIZO designed the monitor to prevent heat buildup, negating the need for fans, by implementing a unique, low power consumption design and using cutting-edge thermo-fluid analysis. Proper heat management eliminates the risk of hardware failure or deterioration of internal components due to external air intake from fans, ensuring that the monitor can be used reliably for a long time.

Slim Design and Light Weight

The thin sheet metal used for the monitor's housing and the fanless design allow for a slimmer and lighter weight monitor compared to other products in the same size class. This helps to streamline installation. 

Installation to Consoles

Designed for seamless integration into maritime consoles, the panel mount structure supports front-side installation. The DuraVision MDF2701W's mounting holes are consistent with those of EIZO's 25.5-inch DuraVision FDU2603W maritime monitor, ensuring a smooth upgrade path for system refreshes.

The physical dimensions differ between MDF2701W and FDU2603W. See specifications for details.

Environment

Low Power Consumption

The monitor consumes a maximum of just 45 W. This is about 50% less compared to conventional solutions of a similar size.

Low Environmental Impact Materials

A portion of the plastic used in the monitor is recycled plastic. This includes ocean-bound plastic that is disposed of within approximately 50 km of the coast.
