EAO specialises in building fully-customised, illuminated keypad solutions which are ready to integrate within any application. Using its S.series keypad that is constructed from ultra-tough Zamac, EAO says it can design a stylish and distinctive keypad solution tailor-made for applications within demanding and harsh environments. These products are well suited to security and access control applications, particularly within unsupervised areas.

EAO's standard products within the S.series range include 12- or 16-key keypads with a choice of telephone or hexadecimal II configurations.

There are extensive possibilities for customisation, such as 'halo' illumination around the character on each key in a range of colours or combination of colours. A library of more than 20 different illuminated key characters is available as standard. EAO also offers a character-design service if special markings are required as well as laser engraving.

EAO offers advice on issues such as environmental protection, mounting, cable and termination, end user-friendliness and tactile feel to ensure the best solution for each customer.

The S.series keypads offer superior performance and high-tactile feedback to provide a reassuring feel for the user. Sealed to IP67, as well as resistant to heat, shock and vibration, they require minimal maintenance and therefore deliver value in terms of lifecycle-cost benefits. They are tested for 4 million operations and are RoHS compliant.
