Keypad TF
Keypad TF – Modular Industrial Control Element
The Keypad TF is designed as a flexible solution for industrial control elements, supporting the reliable operation of complex systems. This advanced CAN bus keypad is suitable for integration into industrial panels or as a standalone component, making it ideal for a wide range of industrial automation applications.
Versatile Configurations and Designs
The Keypad TF is available in three distinct versions, meeting various interface and customization needs:
- TF1: Pushbuttons with insert symbols
- TF2: Pushbuttons with predefined symbols
- TF3: Pushbuttons with continuous front foil
Multiple keypad sizes enable adaptation to different operational requirements:
- 2×3 buttons
- 2×4 buttons
- 2×5 buttons
- 4×5 buttons
Each size is available in horizontal or vertical arrangement, ensuring seamless integration with varied industrial control panels and ergonomic installations. The snap-in elements simplify installation in mounting plates of 2–4 mm thickness.
Robust Features for Demanding Environments
- All pushbuttons feature RGB lighting, configurable with up to 16 preset scenarios for clear status visibility and feedback.
- Wide operating temperature range: TF1/TF2 from -40°C to +85°C; TF3 from -20°C to +70°C.
- High level of reliability with fully encapsulated electronics for increased durability in harsh industrial conditions.
- Degree of protection: Electronics IP67; TF1/TF2 mechanics IP4X; TF3 mechanics IP65; Installation housing IP4X.
- Functional safety: PLd compatible (EN ISO 13849), SIL2 compliant (DIN EN IEC 61508).
