APEM 1-Axis Potentiometer Joystick Passive, IP65, 240 V ac, 6A

This unit features an open style body and offers single axis control. Known as the X or Y axis, it allows movement in one direction only. Either North to South or East to West depending on how it is mounted. It has a conical handle which is friction held allowing you to set a position then release the handle without it returning to the central position on its own.

This joystick is fitted with 5 K potentiometers which have 55º tracks. These potentiometers give rail to rail swings for applications where it is required and extra amplification is not practical.

The 4000 series is a robust, industrial class potentiometer joystick. They have an all metal construction giving a long service life and a high level of performance. They have some advantages over contactless joysticks such as ease of interfacing, wider operating voltages, lower current drain and immunity to RFI.
