Waterproof Touch Keyboard
KY-2065A Infrared Touch Stainless Steel Keyboard With Backlight
KY-2065A is a flat infrared touch keyboard built on a single-piece SUS304 brushed stainless steel panel with no moving keycaps.
Product Overview
KY-2065A is a flat infrared touch keyboard built on a single-piece SUS304 brushed stainless steel panel with no moving keycaps. Touch keys respond without travel, confirm each entry with vibration and stay readable in the dark through key backlight. It suits terminals where gaps around mechanical keys would trap dirt or invite tampering.
- Infrared touch keys remove the moving parts that normally wear out or jam on public terminals
- Integral panel design leaves no keycap seams for liquid, dust or prying tools
- Vibration on touch confirms entry for operators wearing hearing protection in noisy plants
- Key backlight keeps legends legible in unlit kiosks and night shift control rooms
- Durability >2 million keeps replacement intervals long on unattended equipment
- USB, PS/2 and RS232 interfaces let one part number cover several controller generations
Application Scenarios
- Outdoor self-service terminals exposed to rain and hosing
- Unattended ticketing and information kiosks in transit stations
- Wash-down food and beverage processing lines
- Chemical and plating areas where corrosive mist attacks painted panels
- Public access points that need a panel with no removable keycaps
- Night-operated gate and access terminals needing lit legends
Who It Is For
- Kiosk and self-service terminal OEMs
- Industrial automation integrators specifying HMI panels
- Transport and ticketing equipment builders
- Facility operators replacing failed plastic membrane keypads
Problems It Solves
- Mechanical keys jam after dust and grit enter the keycap gaps
- Painted or printed legends wear off under constant public use
- Operators cannot confirm a keypress in loud or gloved conditions
- Legends disappear in low light and cause mis-entry
Technical Features

- SUS304 brushed stainless steel panel described as anti-riot and anti-corrosion
- Integral panel design with customizable interface text
- Power supply 5V±5% with working current <150mA
- USB, PS/2 and RS232 output selectable at order
- Rear mounting or front mounting to suit existing cutouts
- Operation temperature -10℃~45℃ at relative humidity 20%~85%

Materials
- SUS304 brushed stainless steel front panel
- Infrared touch sensing layer behind the steel face
- Backlight assembly under the legend area
Manufacturing Process
- Sheet-metal blanking and forming of the integral SUS304 panel
- Wire brushing to a uniform directional grain
- Laser etching of the customer interface text
- Assembly of the infrared touch and backlight module
- Sealing and rear panel closure
- Interface programming and function test
Quality Control
- Touch response check on every key position before shipment
- Backlight uniformity inspection across the legend area
- Current draw verified against the <150mA figure
- Panel surface inspected for grain consistency and edge burrs
Customisation Options
- Interface text etched to customer artwork
- Key layout and panel cutout dimensions to drawing
- Interface selection between USB, PS/2 and RS232
- Rear or front mounting hardware to match the host enclosure
- OEM and ODM builds using KEYU in-house molds
How It Compares
| Plastic membrane keypad | The membrane overlay abrades and delaminates in public use while the SUS304 panel keeps etched text intact |
|---|---|
| Mechanical metal keypad | Touch sensing has no key travel and no keycap gaps, so there is nothing to jam with grit |
| Capacitive glass touch panel | The steel face resists impact and prying that would crack a glass fascia |
Use Guide
- Cut the panel aperture to the supplied drawing before choosing rear or front mounting
- Supply regulated 5V±5% and allow for working current <150mA
- Keep the unit inside -10℃~45℃ during operation and -30℃~85℃ in storage
- Clean the face with a soft cloth wiped along the brush grain
- Confirm interface mode matches the host before wiring USB, PS/2 or RS232
Questions About This Model
Does the keyboard work with gloves?
Response depends on glove thickness and material, so send us your glove type and we will confirm against a sample before you commit to a build.
Can the printed legends be changed?
Yes. Interface text is customized to customer requirements and etched into the SUS304 panel rather than printed on top.
What interfaces are available?
USB, PS/2 and RS232 are supported. Specify the one you need at order so the controller is built accordingly.
How is the keypad fixed into a kiosk?
Rear mounting or front mounting are both available. Tell us your panel thickness and cutout and we will supply matching hardware.
What power does it need?
5V±5% with working current below 150mA, so it can normally run from the host board supply.
How long does the touch panel last?
Durability is rated at more than 2 million operations.
