In industries working with high explosive gases, substances or dusts special demands for data input devices are required. InduKey's new silicone keyboard TKG-105-EX with EX-approval is ideal for use in these hazardous environments. In addition, this professional keyboard offers a high protection level of IP69K (NEMA 6+6P).

The new keyboard, enclosed in a silicone rubber case, is sealed to IP69K (NEMA 6+6P) making it completely waterproof and dustproof. A special surface coating and an abrasion proof professional printing ensure the protection against harsh cleaning fluids and other chemicals.

The keyboard resists extreme temperatures from -20°C to +50°C and the 105 short travel keys with their rounded keytops have a keyswitch lifetime of more than 3 million operations. Due to its compact dimensions of 387 x 150 x 20 mm it is suitable for the use in standard drawers.

Furthermore, InduKey offers the TKH-MAUS-EX mouse matching the keyboard. This mouse has a PS/2 connector specification and is also enclosed in silicone fulfilling the standards of explosion hazardous areas. Due to its optical scanning technology the inner parts are protected against dirt ingress as well as against wearout.

A galvanic isolation via barrier ensures additional protection, because PC and keyboard are not directly connected together. InduKey offers the keyboard with US-layout and a PS/2 connection. Other language versions are available on request.
