Fully customisable keypad range meets harsh environmental challenges

17 May 2006 Switches, Relays & Keypads

EAO is offering design engineers a fully customisable, extremely reliable, rugged keypad, ideally suited to harsh environments, such as outdoor and unsupervised locations. The company's solid metal S.series keypad range features front plate and anti-pull-off keys made from Zamak, which guarantees a high level of vandal-resistance.

Sealed to IP67 against water and dust as well as resistant to heat, shock and vibration the durable S.series keypad requires minimal maintenance. For applications located in poorly lit locations the S.series is available with the option of LED key illumination in blue, red, yellow or green. Display and control options include full colour front plate designs as well as precision custom laser engraving, which is permanent.

Highly tactile and therefore reassuring to use, the S.series keypad range is tested for quality to 4 million operations and is certified according to the latest international standards. The S.series keypad range is well-suited to meet the needs of public environment applications including access control, banking and public telephones. The range has also been successfully implemented into vending machines and industrial machinery.

Design options also include 12 or 16 keys, and a choice of standard, telephone, or hexi-decimal II configurations.
