Elobau Sensor Technology Inc. introduces its J4/J5 line of industrial joysticks, designed for heavy-duty use on various vehicles and equipment, including all types of machinery, cranes, forklifts, construction, oil & gas, forestry, agricultural and materials handling devices. Compatible multi-function levers are available with pushbutton or thumbwheel operation to suit most any application.
J4/J5 joysticks are offered in analog, digital or PWM and CAN bus output versions, all designed to resist EMC interferences, even to the demanding specifications of the auto and other industries. Housed in IP67 protection class enclosures, these joysticks are available in multiple mechanical configurations. The standard analog version provides a rotating magnetic field over a Hall effect sensor, while the digital version employs a reed switch mechanism.
Standard angular operating range is ±25º in the X- and Y-axis. A mechanical life of 2 x 106 is typical. Operating temperatures range from -40º to +85ºC (-40º to 185ºF).
Many knob configurations are available, with up to eight pushbuttons or two thumbwheel pots onboard. LED indicators in various colors and an optional activation button are offered.
Elobau joysticks are available with or without a multi-function lever mounted. The catalog offered includes complete part number specifications to build the joystick for most any application.
These high-sensitivity, magnetic contact-less joysticks are also suitable for the imaging and medical markets in their lighter J3 version, as they provide superior control with maximum environmental protection.
