KY-TB-38-DESK Stainless Steel Trackball Mouse
KY-TB-38-DESK is a patented stainless steel trackball pointing device in a 100*150*33 mm housing that can be used on a desktop or panel mounted.
Product Overview
KY-TB-38-DESK is a patented stainless steel trackball pointing device in a 100*150*33 mm housing that can be used on a desktop or panel mounted. The 304 stainless front panel and ball resist grit and liquid while the aluminium back panel keeps the unit rigid under rough handling. It is specified where a conventional mouse would be stolen, dropped or clogged.
- Resolution above 10000dpi for precise cursor work on large control screens
- Operation force under 2N so the buttons stay light through long shifts
- 304 stainless steel panel, ball and keys resist dirt, dust and liquid
- Mounting kit and desktop kit are both optional, so one part serves two installs
- EN55022(B) emission data supports use near sensitive instrumentation
- Rated for 2 Million actuations on the keys

Application Scenarios
- Industrial automation control desks
- Self-service terminals and vending equipment
- Pharmaceutical and medical workstations
- Healthcare imaging review stations
- Oil and gas control rooms
- Public library catalogue terminals
Who It Is For
- Control room integrators replacing consumer mice
- Kiosk builders needing a fixed pointing device
- Medical equipment OEMs specifying cleanable pointers
- Industrial machine builders with panel cutouts to fill
Problems It Solves
- Optical mice on cables get pulled off desks and go missing in public areas
- Dust and liquid jam plastic pointing devices in plant environments
- Low resolution pointers make fine selection on large HMI screens slow
- Separate desk and panel variants complicate spare part stocking

How It Compares
| KY-TB-25-DESK | The larger 100*150 mm panel carries a bigger ball area for coarse fast movement |
|---|---|
| Plastic optical mouse | The stainless body stays in place and keeps working where a loose mouse is lost or broken |
| Metal touchpad | The trackball stays usable with wet or gloved hands that defeat a touch surface |
Use Guide
- Decide between desktop kit and mounting kit before ordering
- Allow 33 mm of depth behind the 100*150 mm panel
- Connect to USB or PS/2 and supply 5.0VDC+_5%
- Wipe the ball seat regularly where airborne dust is heavy
- Keep storage conditions within -30℃~85℃
