KY-GJ-98-BL Washable Silicone Keyboard With 98 Keys and Backlight
KY-GJ-98-BL is a 98 key silicone keyboard with an integrated pointing device, designed for rooms where the input device has to be disinfected rather than dusted.
Product Overview
KY-GJ-98-BL is a 98 key silicone keyboard with an integrated pointing device, designed for rooms where the input device has to be disinfected rather than dusted. The one-piece 100% silicone rubber surface is rated IP68 and is suitable for rinsing with cleaning and disinfectant solution. Backlight is included, so it stays usable in darkened imaging and monitoring rooms.
- IP68 dustproof and waterproof grade allows rinsing with cleaning and disinfectant solution
- 98 keys plus an integrated pointing device replace two devices on a crowded cart
- 100% silicone rubber surface has no seams for dirt to hide in and wipes clean in seconds
- Backlight function keeps the layout readable in darkened clinical rooms
- Heat resistance of 200° for 10000 hours of continuous use suits sterilization-adjacent areas
- Cold resistance from -50 degrees to -70 degrees keeps the rubber elastic in cold storage
Application Scenarios
- Medical wards and imaging rooms requiring disinfection between patients
- Pharmaceutical production areas with routine washdown
- Industrial clean areas where particulate control matters
- Laboratory benches exposed to reagents
- Cold rooms where standard keyboards stiffen
Who It Is For
- Medical equipment OEMs specifying a washable input device
- Pharmaceutical plant engineers
- Laboratory equipment suppliers
- Hospital IT teams replacing keyboards that fail infection audits
Problems It Solves
- Keyboards that cannot be disinfected and become a contamination route
- Gaps between keycaps that trap fluid and debris
- Silicone surfaces that harden or crack in cold storage
- Separate mouse hardware that clutters a medical cart
Technical Features
- 98 keys with an integrated pointing device on a single silicone sheet
- Material 100% silicone rubber at hardness 45 + / – 3 degrees

How It Compares
| Sealed plastic medical keyboard | A one-piece IP68 silicone body can be rinsed with disinfectant solution rather than only wiped around the keycaps |
|---|---|
| Stainless steel metal keyboard | The silicone surface gives a softer typing feel and can be cleaned in place, while metal panels are chosen for impact resistance |
Use Guide
- Rinse with cleaning and disinfectant solution; the unit is rated IP68 and is not affected by medical cleaning solution
- Connect by USB; the cable is about 1.8m
- Operate within -20°C-70°C
- Use the integrated 60x45 touch pad rather than adding a separate mouse
- Avoid sharp instruments on the silicone surface
