Keypad with integral adaptability

EAO has introduced a rugged keypad with integral adaptability that offers greater choice and shorter lead times.

The modular design of the new M.series keypad enables limitless different layouts without the long product development times associated with customised products.

Each unique keypad is created by mix-and-matching from a range of standard options, including:

* Number of keys and key layout

* Shape, dimension, colour and material of keys

* Tactile feedback and length of key travel

* Type and colour of illumination.

The tough, vandal-resistant design prevents damage from shock and impact up to IK09, and is sealed to IP67 against moisture and dirt.

It takes a few seconds to fix the M.series in place with just four screws; EAO offers a choice of rear mounting fixing kits.

The integral anti-fraud protection circuit can detect if somebody is tampering with it or trying to open or remove it from the equipment. It is also readily adaptable to support leading edge biometric door-entry systems that combine fingerprint recognition with IP67.

EAO is a global manufacturer of high-quality Human Machine Interface products, from keypads, keyboards and switches to complete, custom-built control panels.
