CEAD


![]() Australian designed and built High Definition Industrial Weatherproof LCD had an interesting challenge last month. Having an IP66 rating ensured that they were able to cope with one of the largest dust storms Brisbane and Australia has experienced in decades.
Brisbane-based CEAD has developed LCD displays especially for tough Australian conditions which can be used for occupational health and safety applications and visual communications. CEAD director, Brian Hammett said the LCD displays had an Ingress Protection (IP) rating of 66, after proving resistant to high pressure water jets and exposure inside a dust chamber. Mr Hammett said the CEAD displays were manufactured in marine grade stainless steel and were totally sealed against moisture, humidity, dust and insects. The display face is made from 6.4mm thick, laminated, anti-glare glass.
“This LCD is built like a concrete bunker but definitely doesn’t look like one. It is a commercial grade full HD screen designed for 24 hour a day operations. It has applications across a wide range of industries and challenging environments. The High Definition Industrial Weatherproof LCD enables high quality communication with workers in large places such as wet areas, wash bays, workshops, stock warehouses, security stations and elsewhere on sites regardless of the locations and environmental conditions. TV monitors used outdoors usually only last a few months due to the moisture, heat or insects, but our weatherproof display will function for many years,” Mr Hammett said. “They can easily be fitted with a new screen in the future and provide long term savings for companies using the displays.”
The LCDs range in size from 101cm to 165cm, and have a 178 degree viewing angle. They are also fitted with thermostatic cooling protection to ensure long life operation. Mr Hammett said the monitors could be installed in offices as well as outdoor or underground working environments and can be securely wall mounted with a theft resistant device.

The Groove Train gets wired...
![]() |
For Brisbane riverside restaurant Groove Train, getting the sound system right was as important as creating a quality menu. With three restaurants in Melbourne, the Groove Train chain has set up in Brisbane alongside the hustle and bustle of the busy Riverside CityCat Ferry Terminal. The challenge for owner Rocky Veneziano was finding the right ambience in the restaurant to blend with the noise of the passing people traffic from the ferry and a building with “the acoustics of a concrete box”. Rocky turned to an acoustic, visual and digital sciences company to design and install an integrated sound system for the Groove Train. “Their speakers are amazing, you cannot see them and they sound crystal clear,” Rocky says. “Every day we receive compliments on the food but never before have we received so many compliments on the sound of our restaurant. Customers also comment on how the sound system enables them to focus on their own conversations and not on those happening at other tables.” | |||
