Data Sheet for Joysticks Series 842 Finger Joystick Very robust potentiometric finger joystick with metal mechanics Wide range of knobs Degree of protection up to IP65 over the panel Inherently robust towards electromagnetic interference Custom versions possible with friction brake for one axis, spring return for the second axis Microswitches for detecting the central position/deflection, customer-specific billet shapes, bellows and sensors on request The series 842 finger joysticks are robust joysticks with potentiometric sensors. They are therefore a alternative to Hall-effect joysticks, especially for applications with high requirements for EMC. The steel shaft for the pommel and the pommel itself are screwed, which allows flexible configurations of rubber bellows, pommel and shaft length. This is reflected in the large selection of knobs on offer and also offers the opportunity to easily integrate custom-made knobs. Technical Data Sensor technology Maximum supply voltage Voltage in Center Position Return to Center Accuracy Output impedance Load resistance Mechanical Life Cycles Deflection x, y axes / z axis 55° (±27.5° from center) / 50° (±25° from center) Operating force x-y-direction Breakout force standard typ. 1.3 N (1.0 N and 1.6 N possible on request) Resistance tolerance of potentiometers Operating- /Storage temperature Above panel sealing Up to IP65 (depends on handle configuration) Insulating resistance Mechanical Properties The joysticks of the 842 series are unique as potentiometer joysticks in their size class and feature a metal mechanism, which gives a very high-quality feel to the operation. Spring return / friction brake The actuation force of the standard spring of the joystick is 1.3 N. Optionally, weaker (1.0 N) and stronger versions (1.6 N) are also available. On request, we can also implement variants with friction brakes in the X and Y direction. We are happy to provide you with information on minimum order quantities for these options.
