KY-PC-V 26 Key Waterproof Vandalproof Metal Keyboard
KY-PC-V is a 26 key waterproof and vandalproof metal keyboard on a 240*125mm panel, using 304 stainless steel keys over a 3mm aluminum alloy back panel.
Product Overview
KY-PC-V is a 26 key waterproof and vandalproof metal keyboard on a 240*125mm panel, using 304 stainless steel keys over a 3mm aluminum alloy back panel. Key trip is 1.5mm or 2mm with 280g±20g operation force, giving a firm press suited to gloved hands. It carries RoHS, IP65, FCC and CE approvals for kiosk, medical and oilfield deployment.
- 26 keys give a usable command set without a full alphanumeric footprint
- 3mm aluminum alloy back panel keeps the keyboard rigid under rough handling
- IP65 approval allows use where water and dust reach the panel
- 280g±20g operation force reduces accidental presses by gloved operators
- Key trip options of 1.5mm or 2mm tune the feel to the application
- 240*125mm front panel matches the overall size, simplifying the cutout
Application Scenarios
- Kiosk solutions in exposed public areas
- Medical equipment consoles requiring cleanable panels
- Industrial facilities with dust and washdown
- Prisons and secure facilities needing vandal resistance
- Food service equipment control panels
- Oil field equipment operated outdoors
Who It Is For
- Kiosk and self-service equipment manufacturers
- Medical device OEMs
- Secure facility and correctional equipment suppliers
- Oil and gas equipment integrators
Problems It Solves
- Plastic keyboards break under deliberate abuse in secure facilities
- Water ingress kills unsealed keyboards in washdown areas
- Thin panels flex and feel unreliable in the field
- Light key actions cause errors when operators wear gloves

How It Compares
| Full size metal keyboard | 26 keys cover machine commands in a 240*125mm panel instead of a full desk footprint |
|---|---|
| Unsealed industrial keypad | IP65 with a waterproof and vandalproof design allows direct exposure in washdown areas |
| Light-touch membrane panel | 280g±20g operation force and up to 2mm travel suit gloved operators |
Use Guide
- Cut the aperture to the 240*125mm panel dimension
- Select 1.5mm or 2mm key trip at order since it is built in
- Supply DC5V±5% with at least 150mA available
- Operate within -10℃~55℃
- Keep the seal intact when refitting after service
