Scantronic KEY-KP01: Grade 3 Wired Keypad with Built-In Prox Reader

Full Description

Core Security Interface: Grade 3 Bus Keypad with Proximity Access Control

The Scantronic KEY-KP01 is a reliable, high-specification Wired Keypad designed to act as the primary user interface for Scantronic intruder alarm systems in high-risk environments. Certified to EN 50131 Grade 3, this Bus Mounted Keypad is ideal for applications where stringent security compliance is mandatory.

The KEY-KP01 provides all the necessary functionality for system control, including a clear display for status feedback, tactile buttons for code entry, and dedicated Personal Attack (PA) keys for immediate emergency signalling. A key feature is the integrated proximity (Prox) tag reader, which allows users to swiftly set and unset the system using a proximity tag or key fob, streamlining the arming/disarming process for efficient, everyday use.
