SN Series T-Bar Fingertip Joystick

The SN Series is a precision T-Bar fader controller. Contactless Hall effect technology, using the latest generation sensor, results in reliable and noise-free operation. A smooth consistent feel is achieved by utilising steel ball races and PTFE bearing surfaces. The SN Series is available with analogue linear voltage or PWM outputs, having a range of factory configured gain settings. Magnetic shielding ensures the SN Series is not adversely affected by other magnetic devices that are typically positioned close to it, such as reed switches.

MAIN FEATURES

  • Consistent smooth feel
  • Precision ball race bearing and PTFE guides
  • Latest generation Hall effect sensors
  • 12 bit resolution
  • “Barrel” or “bullet” aluminium handles
  • Analogue voltage or PWM output options
  • Industry standard mounting
