TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

BEZEL OPTIONS

For drop-in mounting, please specify bezel option 6 or 7. For sub-panel mounting, no bezel is necessary, unless the boot is

required to seal to the front face of the panel in which case option 4 should be specified. Bezels 6 & 7 clamp the boot and top

face of the joystick body to the panel when bezel 4 clamps only the boot. Some handles may be larger than some panel

cut-outs. This may restrict the choice for mounting and bezel options. Please refer to APEM for assistance.

SPRINGING

As standard 8000 series are offered sprung to center. The standard spring force requires1.6N (nominally) to off-center the

joystick. The 8000 series may be specified with a lighter spring (1N).

NOTE: Forces quoted are subject to exact joystick configuration and are provided as a guide only.
