Due to the proven success of the 1000 series joysticks, APEM decided to extend the range and include variations intended for use in harsh environments. All options include a panel seal rating of IP67 and an operating temperature range of -20 to +50°C.
The series comes sprung to centre as standard with an open square gate giving full control of both the X and Y axis (north, south, east and west). To give you the highest possible flexibility of connection, they are supplied as standard without a cable harness.
These units are fitted with the Option 3 version of switches and are able to switch up to 10A on a 240 V ac circuit, higher than most applications would require. The handles are mounted to a stainless steel shaft which in turn is fitted with a Kumho/Neoprene sealing boot. The boot is able to offer protection from substances such as oils and petroleum and is UV resistant.

The high level of ingress protection and the high-quality materials used to produce these units makes them ideal for outdoor use, lifting platforms and materials handling devices.

This unit comes supplied with a + and - limiter for applications where only one axis may be used at a time. The limiters are not pre-fitted so you can decide which to use or even if it is required. This unit comes with double pole contacts.
