New keypad range

Switches, Relays & Keypads
The current market demand for keypads is changing. The present trend requires keypads to be able to withstand any sort of aggression and the harshest climatic conditions. This demand is directly linked to the development of public automated services and increasing urban insecurity.
So says iS Electronics, local supplier of the Secme range of switches. The company says that until now, the different Secme ranges AVHP, AVLE and AVSE could only partially satisfy the customer's requirements.
* AVHP is extremely vandal-resistant but neither sealed nor illuminated.
* AVLE is available in an illuminated version and it is sealed, but its resistance to aggressive environments is dependent on a complex installation process.
* AVSE is nonilluminated and a low-cost version of AVLE.
The new 'solid' range far better fulfils market requirements. It integrates greater resistance, a simplified installation process and a range of illuminated keypads, says iS Electronics.
The range of solid keypads offers not only IP67 protection vandal resistance, impact resistance, but it also offers superior finish in its chrome Zamak metal as the outer casing. It is further specialised by allowing illumination or not.
Standard supply constitutes 12, 16 keys, matrix or common point, as well as an additional sealing gasket thus rendering it to be the best keypad on the market from both vandal resistance as well as weatherproof. Specialised markings are also an option and can be done before assembling.
