Penny & Giles Technical InformationJC8100 • Extremely robust design for arduous applications • Integrated sealed connectors • Center detent for enhanced return-to-center performance • Under panel depth has been minimized to 83mm • Pivot-point position minimizes grip cable flex • Rated for 5 million cycles • Hall-effect sensor technology • CAN output options - J1939 and CANopen • Dual Analogue outputs with sense options • Can be supplied as ‘base-only’ for custom grip fitting • Multiple generic grip options with additional axes of control The JC8100 offers high mechanical strength for very heavy-duty applications and features a center detent that provides guaranteed return-to-center, as well as a positive feel to the operator, throughout 5 million cycles. While maintaining an overall minimum under-panel depth of the joystick body, the shaft pivot-point position has been designed to be as low as possible so as to ensure a high strength capability in the small body space envelope. This reduction in angular deflection reduces wear on base-to-grip wiring, so enhancing overall reliability. Hall-effect sensing eliminates contact wear and provides safety functionality via dual analogue outputs per axis or CAN. Electronic robustness is assured with sealing of the internal PCB to a rating of IP66 and IP69k. Simplified connector detailing through the use of industry standard sealed connectors to ensure product integrity over the product lifetime. A choice of multi-function grips are available, including grips with up to 4 axis of additional proportional control, plus the option of ‘base-only’ enabling custom grips to be fitted.

The overall performance of the joystick may be limited by the grip chosen (refer to grip specification). It is the responsibility of the customer when fitting the grip to ensure wires are correctly terminated (flying lead version only).

Open the catalog to page 11The joystick is designed to be fitted from below the mounting panel through a 72mm diameter hole. The effectiveness of the joystick flange sealing is dependent on the panel mounting surface being sufficiently rigid to compress the sealing boot. The surface finish of the mounting panel is critical to achieve an adequate seal and rough surface finishes, paint chips, deep scratches, etc. should be avoided.
