Product Overview
KY-PC-H is a full size industrial metal keyboard for equipment that lives outside a clean control room. It offers an unusually long 4mm key trip, which gives a clear tactile confirmation through gloves on a production floor. Water, dust and vandal resistance plus RoHS, IP65, FCC and CE approvals make it a straightforward fit for indoor and outdoor self-service terminals.
- 4mm key trip gives a deep, unmistakable stroke for gloved operators
- Water, dust and vandal resistant construction suits unsupervised installations
- RoHS, IP65, FCC and CE approvals answer standard tender paperwork
- One year warranty that can be extended reduces lifecycle risk on fleet rollouts
- Rear mounting or front mounting fits both new builds and retrofits
- Durability ≥2million supports continuous public use
Application Scenarios
- Industrial equipment operating in extreme environments
- Indoor self-service terminals in lobbies and stations

How It Compares
| Short travel membrane keyboard | A 4mm key trip is felt through heavy gloves where a membrane dome is not |
|---|---|
| Office keyboard in an industrial cabinet | Water, dust and vandal resistance plus IP65 keep the panel working where an office unit fails in weeks |
Use Guide
- Allow for the 394*124 mm overall size when cutting the fascia
- Choose rear or front mounting at design stage
- Confirm the host can supply DC5V±5% at under 150mA
- Discuss warranty extension at order stage rather than after shipment
