Both options have a gold plated silver alloy contact, providing reliable switching at low current levels. Switch option A being suitable for up to 2A operation and switch option B being suitable for 100mA operation. The anticipated life of the switches is heavily determined by the application and parameters such as load type. Please contact the factory for further advice about the expected switch performance under different loads of DC power supplies. MECHANICAL OPERATION All NZ series are supplied with an open square gate, allowing the user to move freely in all directions. This configuration allows the user to move in a diagonal direction which will provide a contact on two switches simultaneously. As a standard option the joystick may be factory fitted with an anodized aluminum limiter plate, limiting the travel to a "+" shape e.g. North, South, East and West only, with no diagonal travel, or a slot shape for North, South movement only. LEVERS AND SEALING The NZ series is offered with two panel sealing options: * The silicone half boot option offers a product that closely mimics the look of a toggle switch. Lever Option A also mimics the look of a toggle lever. Additional levers to suit the half boot construction are available upon request. * The silicone full boot option offers a product that more closely resembles a traditional joystick. Lever Option B is designed to work with a full boot. This option provides for the best possible panel seat, and has the tallest construction offered. The half boot is supplied as standard with an additional sealing washer to seal the underside of the mounting nut. All boots are supplied as standard in black. The half boot is also available in red and green. In all cases the NZ series is also supplied with an additional sealing gasket which may be optionally fitted to seal the body of the joystick to the underside of the panel. NOTES: All seats offered are above panel seals. The NZ series is not sealed under panel. Switch option A are unsealed switches. Switch Option B are sealed switches. CONNECTION DETAILS Joysticks are supplied as standard without a cable harness, allowing the user flexibility of connection. Alternatively, joysticks specified with option A switches may be supplied with a polyimide ribbon tail, available in two configurations: * The 5-way tail provides a connection to the four normally open contacts (North, South, East and West) and one common line. The 5-way tail is suitable for use with loads up to 2A @ 36VDC. * The 12-way tail provides a connection to all twelve contacts i.e. normally open, normally closed and common on each of the four switches. The 12-way tail is suitable for use with small control signals up to 100mA 12VDC. Both tails are terminated with a 0.1 inch pitch female connector housing. Male connectors are available upon request.
