Keypad enclosures offer more choices

 The Comtec range of sloping front keypad enclosures is now available in seven standard sizes with external dimensions from 4.72 x 5.90 x 1.69 in. to 11.41 x 7.87 x 3.11 in. Four sizes are available with a battery compartment aperture in the base section which is designed for mounting an accessory battery cradle. Three types of battery cradle are offered: one 9-V cell, two 9-V cells, or four 1.5-V AA cells.

The enclosures are molded in fine textured ABS (UL 94 HB) and come in two standard colors: off-white (RAL 9002) or black (RAL 9005). Priced starting at $22, they feature a so-called softline design with an ergonomically inclined (10º) operating area to ensure comfortable operation of controls. Typical applications include telecom equipment, intercoms, surveillance devices, data collection, point-of-sale terminals, and a broad range of instrumentation.
