Original Press Release:
EAO's Stainless Steel Products Offer Ultimate Protection
EAO, the expert in Human Machine Interfaces, has addressed the risks associated with harsh industrial environments and externally located applications with its range of robust and extremely reliable stainless steel switches, keypads and keyboards.
When the environment demands, EAO's stainless steel products offer protection of up to IP67 standards against water, heat, shock, vibration, and vandalism. These durable products require minimal maintenance and ultimately deliver long-term value in regards to life-cycle cost benefits.
Of the many advantages, EAO's stainless steel pushbuttons and keypads may be illuminated to allow for use in poorly lit conditions. Additional design options include laser engraving. These specific symbols and legends will not wear off or corrode, thus aiding their effectiveness in harsh environments.
EAO's stylish Series 04 and 14 ranges offer pushbuttons, indicators and selector switches with stainless steel lenses, protective front rings and bezels. These characteristics are ideal for operating in wet or dusty conditions. For additional protection against vandalism, harsh usage and aggressive cleaning techniques, both ranges can be flush-mounted. Options within these product lines include self-cleaning, snap-action switching elements with gold-plated silver contacts. Or, for particularly harsh environments, certain switches may be specified with silver/palladium contacts. These products are ideal for machinery control panels having to resist impact, air pollution and chemical washing.
EAO's W.Series keyboards and keypads are incredibly rugged, but do not sacrifice the smooth key tactile action of normal PC keyboards. Featuring non-flammable keys that cannot be pulled off, they are protected against the ingress of dust and water making them suitable for outdoor use. Customer-specific layouts may be created on request for applications such as Internet kiosks, access control and industrial-process-control panels, and banking/payment terminals.
