Data Sheet for Joysticks Series 891 Hand Joystick Cobra head ergonomic multifunction handle Outstanding quality of mechanics and sensors Equipped with conductive plastic potentiometers or Hall sensors (optional redundant) Available with spring return to centre position or with friction brake Versions with 1 to 4 axes available, special versions with fully rotatable cobra knob available Optional up to six micro switches, plus four pushbuttons and two switches The 891 series large handheld joysticks with Cobra handle are specially designed for multi-axis machine control in harsh environments, where quality and tactility are paramount and many additional functions are required. The 891 joysticks are a guarantee of success in these demanding applications. Technical Data Joystick Angle of Movement X-, Y-Axis Return to Center Accuracy X / Y Operating Force Expected Life Operating Temperature Weight (depending on configuration) IP protection (above panel): Standard minimum IP40, up to IP65 depending on configuration Options and Customizations The axis mechanism of the 891 series is made of metal. The sensors of the two main axes can be configured independently of one another: The handle can either be configured to automatically return to its centre position by means of a spring (various spring strengths available), or it can be configured to remain in the current position by means of a friction brake. Detent positions (for the X and Y axes) can be implemented to haptically indicate to the operator that certain positions have been reached. The design can be customized for the application by adding specific functions such as mini-joysticks, rockers, dead man’s switches, buttons above and below the joystick head. Multiple rockers can be fitted as an option, giving the joystick a large number of degrees of freedom. The ergonomic design of the Cobra handle ensures that the additional functions are within easy reach. For safety-critical applications, trigger switches can be integrated into the handle and micro-switches can be ordered to detect the operating status and switch to a customer-specified position when the X and Y axes are deflected. Redundant switch assemblies are also available. As a special option, the entire handle can be rotated as the third degree of freedom of the main axes. In this case, however, only 6 leads can be routed through the main shaft. If common wires are used for grounding and powering the controls in the knob, the following options are available: 1 rocker (3 wires), 2 pushbuttons (1 wire per button, common ground with rocker) 2 rockers (4 wires, common supply and ground), no pushbuttons 5 pushbuttons (common ground, incl. or excl. trigger switch, no illuminated switches) Please contact us for information on possible combinations of the above options, minimum order quantities and customization costs.
