Description
The Curtiss Wright FNR Control Switch is a miniaturised directional control switch. The FNR directional control switch utilises advanced Hall-effect technology, ensuring precise and reliable performance in the toughest of user environments.
It’s benefits from three separate outputs, one for each latched/hold position (Forward-Neutral-Reverse), enabling both two-directional and centre positive logic in a control system.
The design is based on a successful full lever directional control switch that has been miniaturised to fit into both Curtiss Wright’s HM and custom grips, providing engineers with a versatile solution tailored for telehandlers, materials handling equipment and construction and agricultural vehicles.
Key Features:
- Return to centre mechanics with latching at travel ends
- Rated for over 1 million cycles at 0.5 Hz
- Operating temperature from -40°C to +85°C
- Electronics sealed to IP67
- Snap-fit mounting design
- Thumb or finger operation
- Supply voltage: 5V ± 0.5V
- Short-circuit protection and reverse polarity protection
The Penny & Giles product range comprises a broad selection of joysticks, sensors and solenoids for use on commercial vehicles and industrial equipment.
The products are the legacy of the Penny & Giles company founded in 1956 and acquired by Curtiss Wright in 2002.
The present-day product range includes: linear and rotary position sensors; LVDT and RVDT transducers; joysticks; studio faders; digital panel meters; and solenoid actuators for a wide range of industrial motion control applications.
Their joystick controls are suitable for commercial vehicle applications for both on- and off-highway use. These include construction and agricultural vehicles, material handling and other specialty vehicles. They are also suitable for use with industrial equipment such as robotics. Their finger-operated joystick controllers are designed for the smooth, precise control of critical functions in a variety of industrial applications where a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) is required. They also have rugged joystick controllers are designed for the more demanding installations found within operator cabs for off-highway vehicles. A wide range of linear position sensors, tilt sensors, rotary sensors, linear displacement transducers and linear potentiometers that offer distinct advantages in reliability, stability and compactness.
