2-axispotentiometer3-axis

Overview
90JAM potentiometer-type joystick for position/angle control. Manufacturer: SAKAE (Shanghai SIBO). Designed for industrial control applications with 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional coordinate options.

Features

• 2D or 3D coordinate operation
• Potentiometer outside-mounted (SFCP22E / SFCP22AC)
• Conductive plastic resistive element
• Standard spring return: automatic return to center

General Mechanical Specifications
Controlling range of operating lever: 2D type: approx. ±22°–±26° omni-direction from center. 3D type: additional approx. ±45°–±50° rotation of the knob in addition to 2D range.
Operating force: X/Y directions: approx. 2–12 N (200–1,200 gf); Z direction (3D): approx. 20–85 mN·m (200–850 gf·cm). Standard spring return automatically returns to center.
Operating temperature range: -20℃ to +65℃.
Vibration: 10–55 Hz, 98 m/s².
Shock: 294 m/s².
Life expectancy: approx. 5,000,000 operations.
Mass: 2D type: approx. 650 g; 3D type: approx. 750 g.

General Electrical Specifications
Potentiometers mounted: SFCP22E (10 kΩ ±15%, 0.2 W, conductive plastic) for X/Y axis; for 3D variants with Z-axis potentiometer inside knob: SFCP22AC (10 kΩ ±15%, 0.3 W). Independent linearity tolerance: ±3%. Electrical rotating angle for X & Y axis: approx. 44°. For Z-axis (3D, inside knob): approx. 90°.
Output smoothness: < 0.2% vs input voltage.
Contact resistance variation: < 5% C.R.V.
Resolution: essentially infinite.
Dielectric strength: 500 V A.C. for 1 minute.
Insulation resistance: > 1000 MΩ (500 V D.C.).

Options and Customizations

• Panel mounting and special handle shapes
• Mechanical detents or braking mechanisms (90JA options)
