Membrane Keyboard
KY-UT385 Medical Membrane Keyboard With Touchpad
KY-UT385 is a thin panel membrane keyboard with an integrated touchpad for clinical and pharmaceutical workstations.
Product Overview
KY-UT385 is a thin panel membrane keyboard with an integrated touchpad for clinical and pharmaceutical workstations. The flat sealed surface resists dirt dust and liquid and can be wiped down with soapy water disinfectant or other cleaning agents between users. It is aimed at medical device builders and industrial control OEMs who need one cleanable input surface instead of a keyboard plus a separate mouse.
- Flat membrane surface can be cleaned with soapy water disinfectant or other cleaning agents
- Very thin metal panel design fits shallow cart and trolley enclosures
- IP65 approval keeps spills and cleaning fluid out of the electronics
- Integrated touchpad removes the separate mouse from the hygiene routine
- Five interface options USB PS/2 RS232 TTL and RS485 for varied medical hosts
- Rear mounting or front mounting suits both new panels and retrofits
Application Scenarios
- Bedside and ward medical equipment consoles
- Pharmaceutical production line terminals
- Laboratory instrument control panels
- Industrial control equipment in wipe down areas
- Kiosk solutions in clinics and waiting rooms
- Food service and prison terminals needing anti corrosion input
Who It Is For
- Medical device manufacturers
- Pharmaceutical plant equipment builders
- Laboratory instrument OEMs
- Industrial control panel integrators
Problems It Solves
- Standard keyboards trap fluid and cannot be disinfected between patients
- Separate mice add an extra contaminated surface to clean
- Deep keyboard bodies do not fit thin medical cart panels
- Corrosive cleaning agents attack ordinary keyboard finishes

How It Compares
| Standard office keyboard | A sealed flat membrane face can be disinfected while a keyed office board cannot |
|---|---|
| Keyboard plus separate mouse | The built in touchpad removes one loose contaminated item from the workstation |
| Thick industrial keyboards | The very thin metal panel fits shallow medical cart cutouts |
Use Guide

- Allow 409*134 mm overall clearance behind the fascia
- Clean with soapy water disinfectant or other cleaning agents rather than abrasives
- Confirm the interface option before ordering as five are available
- Operate within -20 to 55 degrees C
