Product Summary |
---|
The Washable Super Compact Mini Keyboard with Cursorpoint from Solidtek is designed for use in wet or dirty environments which would render traditional input devices unusable. Fully enclosed in silicone, it meets IP68 protection standards for dust and moisture. Potential applications might include manufacturing equipment data input, medical or dental environments in which equipment must be sterilized, and any location where data entry is necessary but where moisture or dirt are prevalent. With a cursorpoint mousing device incorporated into the keyboard, and key movement that provides distinct tactile feedback, the Washable Super Compact Mini Keyboard with Cursorpoint is a complete data entry and control device in one.
The narrow 9" footprint of this keyboard means that it can be used wherever space is at a premium. However, the resulting reduction in key pitch spacing (14.6 mm, or 75% of standard) could make touch typing difficult. With the possible exception of those with extremely small hands, most will find it difficult to position their fingers over adjacent keys in the usual way. Adopting a two-fingered typing style can reduce the potential of overshooting the targeted keys. This keyboard is consequently more suitable for quick spurts of limited data entry than for extensive typing.
The incorporated cursorpoint mousing device is located directly below the spacebar and offers full fingertip cursor control. Large left and right click buttons flank it on both sides.
Note: The entire keypad has a raised outer lip running around it which in some environments could allow liquid to pool. |

Features |

- Ultra-Compact: With a width of just 9.0" and depth of 5.75" this keyboard can fit almost anywhere. This makes it easier to deploy where space is limited and where more traditional keyboards simply would not fit. Despite the super compact size, it still retains all standard functions.
- Integrated CursorPoint Mousing Device: The cursorpoint control is centrally positioned just below the spacebar, with the left and right click buttons to either side.
- Embedded Numeric Keypad: The Washable Super Compact Mini Keyboard with Cursorpoint achieves its compact size due to the reduced key spacing and size as well as the elimination of an integrated numeric keypad on the left or right hand side. However, it does have an embedded numeric keypad, which is easily and quickly accessed through a toggle key. Instructions for accessing the embedded numeric keypad are included.
- Waterproof and Washable: The keyboard is sealed in 100% silicone, making it liquid and dust proof. Because it meets IP68 requirements it can also be safely washed or cleaned with soap or other non-petroleum based cleaners as needed.
- Sturdy, Rigid Construction: Unlike many washable keyboards on the market that can be flexible and flimsy, this washable keyboard by Solidtek features a heavy duty, rigid construction that offers a stable, solid feel when typing.
- Familiar Key Layout: Familiar key layout results in minimal adaptation time.

Usage Tips |
---|
- While the Silicone housing is highly resistant to most cleaners and disinfectants it is advisable to first test them on a small area of the underside before general use to determine whether an unsuitable reaction occurs.
- If you have average-size hands you will almost certainly find yourself adopting a 2-finger approach when using this keyboard as the reduced keyspacing makes it difficult to maintain proper finger position. The keycaps have been made smaller to help avoid accidental activation of adjacent keys.
