KY2130 Outdoor Metal Keypad With Function Keys
KY2130 is a stainless steel keypad intended for outdoor terminals, combining 14*14*1.5mm common keys with 14*28*1.5mm function keys.
Product Overview
KY2130 is a stainless steel keypad intended for outdoor terminals, combining 14*14*1.5mm common keys with 14*28*1.5mm function keys. Its SUS304 panel is described as anti-riot and anti-corrosion, which matters on fascias exposed to weather and handling. At 0.25Kg net weight it adds little load to a pole-mounted or wall-mounted unit.

How It Compares
| Plastic outdoor keypad | Stainless steel does not go brittle or chalky after seasons of UV exposure |
|---|---|
| Uniform key metal keypad | Separate 14*28*1.5mm function keys are found by touch in poor outdoor light |
| Heavier panel keyboard | 0.25Kg net weight suits pole and wall fascias with limited support |
Use Guide
- Mount within a fascia that sheds water away from the cable entry
- Confirm the cutout suits rear or front mounting before installation
- Provide 5V±5% with under 150mA available
- Keep ambient within -10℃~50℃ in service
- Rinse salt or dust off the panel periodically
