Ergotron SV Height-Adjustable Keyboard Arm
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Ergotron SV Height-Adjustable Keyboard Arm (97-827) - Local Warranty
Adds Independent Keyboard Height Adjustment to a StyleView Cart
The Ergotron SV Height-Adjustable Keyboard Arm (97-827) is a StyleView cart accessory with a specific job: it adds height adjustability to the keyboard tray on a StyleView cart while retaining the cart's existing back-tilt capability and adding 180 degrees of pan rotation. On a cart shared across a shift, the keyboard can be set independently of the monitor for each clinician.
180° Pan for Bedside and Multi-User Working
The 180-degree pan rotation is what makes this accessory valuable at the point of care. A clinician can swing the keyboard aside to speak with a patient, rotate it toward a colleague to review an entry, then bring it back — without repositioning the whole cart. In a Singapore ward or clinic where floor space around the bed is tight, moving the keyboard rather than the cart is often the only practical option.
Purpose-Built for StyleView SV40, SV41 and SV42 Carts
This is a targeted upgrade, not a universal keyboard arm. It fits StyleView SV40, SV41 and SV42 series carts fitted with an LCD pivot or arm — Ergotron's own service manual designates it “SV4X”. Confirm your cart model before ordering; SourceIT can check this against your existing fleet if you are unsure.
Correcting a Common Misunderstanding About This Part
The 97-827 is frequently and wrongly described online as a general-purpose keyboard arm that mounts to desks and flat surfaces. It does not. It is a StyleView cart component, rated for a keyboard load of under 3 lb (1.4 kg). SourceIT lists it accurately so you order the right part the first time.

Specification note: Ergotron publishes the 180° pan figure and the under-3 lb capacity, but does not publish a consistent tilt angle or a numeric height-adjustment range for the 97-827 — the service manual and third-party sources disagree, so SourceIT omits those figures rather than quoting an unverified number. Tray dimensions, materials, finish, product weight and lift technology are likewise not published. Contact SourceIT if you need a specific figure confirmed with Ergotron before ordering.
Compatibility & Fit
This is a StyleView cart accessory, not a desk-mount arm. It fits StyleView SV40, SV41 and SV42 series carts that are equipped with an LCD pivot or arm. It does not mount to a desk, a wall, a pole or a flat surface. If you need a desk-mounted keyboard arm, that is a different Ergotron product line entirely — contact SourceIT and we will point you to the right one.
Check your cart model first. Ergotron's own service documentation designates this accessory “SV4X”, which is the SV40/SV41/SV42 family. If you run a mixed StyleView fleet — SV10, SV43, SV44 and so on — this part will not fit every cart. Send SourceIT your cart part numbers and we will confirm fit before you order.
Keyboard and mouse fit. The arm is rated for a load of under 3 lb (1.4 kg), which covers a standard keyboard plus a mouse. Heavier mechanical keyboards, or a keyboard with a substantial integrated wrist rest, may exceed the rating. Ergotron does not publish the tray dimensions, so if you use a full-size keyboard with a numeric keypad, check clearance against your existing StyleView tray.
What it adds versus what it replaces. The accessory adds independent height adjustment and 180° of pan to the keyboard position while preserving the cart's back-tilt. It is an upgrade to the existing keyboard arrangement on the cart rather than a standalone workstation component.

Frequently Asked Questions — Ergotron SV Height-Adjustable Keyboard Arm
Which Ergotron carts does the 97-827 fit?
StyleView SV40, SV41 and SV42 series carts fitted with an LCD pivot or arm. Ergotron's service manual designates the accessory “SV4X”. It is not a universal part — send SourceIT your cart part numbers and we will confirm fit before you order.
Can I mount this to a desk or a wall?
No. Despite descriptions elsewhere online suggesting otherwise, the 97-827 mounts only to a StyleView cart's LCD pivot or arm assembly. It is not a desk-clamp, grommet, wall or pole-mount product. If you need a desk-mounted keyboard arm, contact SourceIT and we will recommend the correct Ergotron model.
How much weight will it hold?
Ergotron's service manual specifies under 3 lb (1.4 kg) — enough for a standard keyboard and mouse. A heavy mechanical keyboard or one with a large integrated wrist rest may exceed the rating.
How far does the keyboard rotate?
180 degrees of pan rotation, which Ergotron states on its product page. That lets a clinician swing the keyboard aside at the bedside or rotate it toward a colleague without moving the cart itself.
How much height adjustment does it give?
Ergotron confirms that the accessory adds height adjustability to the StyleView keyboard tray, but does not publish a consistent numeric range for it — the figures quoted by third-party sources vary and conflict. SourceIT will not quote a number we cannot verify. If the exact range is critical to your specification, contact us and we will confirm it with Ergotron.
How is this different from the WorkFit keyboard trays?
Completely different products for different hosts. The 97-827 is an adjustable arm for StyleView medical carts, with height adjustment and 180° pan. The Deep Keyboard Tray (97-897) and Corner Keyboard Tray (97-898) are fixed one-piece trays that replace the keyboard surface on WorkFit-S and WorkFit-A sit-stand workstations — they have no motion of their own.
Does the SV Height-Adjustable Keyboard Arm come with a Singapore warranty?
Yes. Every Ergotron SV Height-Adjustable Keyboard Arm sold by SourceIT comes with local Singapore warranty and a GST invoice; Ergotron does not publish a specific manufacturer warranty term for the SV Height-Adjustable Keyboard Arm on its datasheet, so please contact SourceIT to confirm the current term before you order.
