Joystick Switches

Intuitively steer and position cranes, robot arms, and other machinery that moves in multiple directions—your equipment will follow the movements you make with these joysticks. They control multiple circuits as you move them in different directions and patterns. Assemble a complete switch with an actuator and at least one contact block (sold separately).

Actuators

Image of Product. Front orientation. Joystick Switches.

All actuators include a mounting clip that can fit up to two contact blocks. They’re NEMA and IP rated for protection from dust, washdowns, and oil/coolant spraying.

2 Positions—Two-position actuators require one to four contact blocks.

4 Positions—Four-position actuators require two to four contact blocks. They are off in the center position.

Momentary Switch—Momentary actuators can only be locked in the off position.

Maintained Switch—Maintained actuators can be locked in any position.

Chrome-Plated Steel—Chrome-plated steel actuators resist wear better than rubber actuators.

Harsh Environment Potentiometers

Metal

Housing

Rated NEMA 13, these potentiometers protect against debris and splashing oil and coolant. Also known as variable output switches, they vary electrical flow to control speed, volume, and light intensity.

NEMA 6 Enclosure Rating—NEMA 6 potentiometers seal out water from temporary submersion as well as weather and washdowns.

30 mm Panel-Mount Key Switches

These switches require a key to turn circuits on or off, limiting access to sensitive equipment. Rated NEMA 6, 13, and IP66, they're protected from washdowns and oil/coolant spraying. All are keyed alike, so they open with the same key. They include enough contact blocks to control the number of circuits listed.
