Sturdy and reliable industrial joystick controller for harsh environments and situations. Materials, technical solutions and sizing of critical components studied to guarantee mechanical resistance and long life, with special attention to design, ergonomics, operation accuracy and sensitivity.

Features

  • Structural components are made of die-cast nickel-plated zama to ensure maximum resistance, while parts subject to wear are made of techno-polymer.
  • Mechanical life of switches: 5 million operations.
  • IP protection degree: Romeo is classified IP 00 or IP 65, if housed in Romeo-PK or in a specific enclosure.
  • Extreme temperature resistance: -25°C to +70°C.

Options

  • Available with up to 6 speeds for each direction.
  • Stepped or linear operation with spring return or maintained position.
  • Cross or 360° movement.
  • 3 different versions: with free movement, with "dead man" safety device (with mechanical interlock with or without NO/NC contact), or with NO pushbutton to be used as electrical interlock.
  • 3 different handles, also available with pushbuttons and selector switches.
  • Available with potentiometers.

Certifications

  • CE marking.
