The Ergotron 97-827 StyleView Height-Adjustable Keyboard Arm is an accessory designed to add vertical adjustment to the keyboard tray on compatible Ergotron StyleView medical carts. It allows users to reposition the keyboard working height while retaining tray tilt and 180-degree pan movement.
Designed for compatible StyleView carts equipped with an LCD pivot or arm, the 97-827 replaces the existing keyboard tray support arrangement while reusing the cart's existing keyboard and mouse tray. This allows the workstation's keyboard position to be adjusted without requiring a separate replacement tray.
Height Adjustment and Ergonomic Positioning
The arm provides vertical adjustment controlled by a lever. Loosening the lever allows the keyboard assembly to move to a different height, and tightening it secures the selected position.
The available vertical travel depends on the cart configuration. Carts without drawers provide 6 inches (15.2 cm) of adjustment, while carts with drawers provide 4 inches (10.2 cm). The keyboard tray also retains back-tilt capability, with the tilt angle changing according to the arm's vertical position.
Compatibility
The Ergotron 97-827 is designed for compatible Ergotron StyleView cart configurations in the SV40, SV41 and SV42 series that have an LCD pivot or arm.
The accessory reuses the cart's existing keyboard and mouse tray. Before ordering, verify the exact cart model and its current display-mount configuration to ensure compatibility.
Key Features
- Vertical height adjustment: Provides adjustable keyboard positioning to accommodate different working heights.
- 180-degree pan movement: Allows the keyboard arm to pan through a 180-degree range.
- Adjustable back tilt: Retains keyboard tray tilt, with the angle varying across the arm's vertical travel.
- Existing tray reuse: Uses the compatible cart's existing keyboard and mouse tray rather than requiring a separate replacement tray.
- Lever-controlled positioning: Allows the arm's height to be adjusted and secured using its adjustment lever.
Applications
- Reconfiguring compatible StyleView carts for adjustable keyboard working heights.

- Adjusting keyboard placement on compatible clinical carts used for documentation and computer-based workflows.
- Upgrading an existing supported StyleView cart without replacing its keyboard and mouse tray.
DC Supplies Product Note
Check whether the compatible StyleView cart has drawers before planning the keyboard adjustment range. The available vertical travel differs between configurations: 6 inches on carts without drawers and 4 inches on carts with drawers. Also, the 3 lb (1.36 kg) load rating applies to the keyboard arm assembly; confirm the weight of the supported keyboard and any items placed on the tray remains within the manufacturer's limit.
