Curtiss-Wright Industrial division has announced the launch of the JC050, designed by the Penny & Giles brand, a Hall-effect thumbwheel roller that is suitable for integration within joystick hand-grips and other in-cab human-machine interfaces (HMI) in specialty off-highway vehicles.
- Features low under-panel depth of 23 mm (0.9 in.)
- Return-to-center functionality over range of ±37 degrees roller travel
- Rated for 3 million operating cycles due to use of non-contacting, Hall-effect sensing technology
- ‘Pass through’ design protects against liquid or dust contamination
- Electronic robustness is assured by sealing of internal electronics to rating of IP67
- Dual-redundant electronic architecture is constructed using two power supplies and two sensing circuits, outputs of which can be set to positive ramps, combination of positive and negative ramps, or full voltage range over half travel from each sensor with constant output in other half travel
- Optional lever actuator profile to ease operation
- Operating temperature from -40-85 C (-40-185 F)
- MTTFd greater than 700 years
- Supplied as standalone unit or integrated into the Penny & Giles HE range of hand-grips
- Launches with 5V DC supply voltage and connection via 3-, 4- or 6-way flying leads based on input/output requirements
