KY-TB-38-B Panel Mounting Mechanical Trackball

KY-TB-38-B is a panel mounting mechanical trackball with a flush 107*134 mm stainless steel face where the front panel and overall size are identical.

Product Overview

KY-TB-38-B is a panel mounting mechanical trackball with a flush 107*134 mm stainless steel face where the front panel and overall size are identical. It is a sealed dust proof pointing device with resolution above 800dpi that replaces a computer mouse on fixed terminals. Integrators use it on kiosks vending machines and library stations that need one flat fascia dimension to design around.
  • Front panel and overall size are both 107*134 mm so the cutout calculation is simple
  • Sealed dust proof construction keeps grit out of the mechanism
  • Resolution above 800dpi for precise selection
  • 304 stainless steel panel trackball and keys over an aluminum back panel
  • Approvals cover ROHS IP65 FCC and CE
  • Mounting kit and desktop kit optional for bench installations

How It Compares

KY-TB-38Front panel and overall dimensions are both 107*134 mm for a flush single size fascia
Optical trackballsThe mechanical sealed design suits sites where a simple robust mechanism is preferred
Standard computer miceA fixed panel device cannot be unplugged or stolen from an unattended terminal

Use Guide

  1. Design the cutout around the single 107*134 mm dimension
  2. Choose rear or front mounting at installation
  3. Supply DC5V plus or minus 5 percent
  4. Clean the ball seat periodically to keep the roll smooth
  5. Store between -30 and 85 degrees C
