LOVATO Electric LPSJ200 2-Way Metal Joystick with Spring Return, 22mm Mounting, 1NO Contacts and Adapter

The LOVATO Electric LPSJ200 is a high-quality 2-way metal joystick engineered for demanding industrial control environments. This robust device features a reliable spring return mechanism that automatically resets the joystick to the center position after release, ensuring precise and repeatable manual control. Designed for standard 22mm mounting holes, it integrates seamlessly into existing control panels and automation systems. The package includes a durable mounting adapter and two 1NO contact blocks, offering a comprehensive solution for machine operation and process management.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this joystick is its rugged metal construction, which provides exceptional durability and resistance to mechanical wear in harsh industrial settings. The spring return functionality enhances operational safety by preventing accidental continuous activation. Furthermore, the inclusion of both the mounting adapter and contact blocks simplifies the installation process, saving time and reducing the need for additional components. Its ergonomic design ensures comfortable handling, while the 22mm standard mounting diameter makes it highly compatible with a wide range of industrial enclosures and control stations.

Suitable for

• Industrial machinery control panels
• Automation and robotics systems
• Material handling equipment
• Process control interfaces
• Manual switching for electrical circuits

When it may not be suitable

This joystick is not designed for applications requiring more than two directions of movement or complex multi-axis control. It is also not suitable for environments where high-pressure water jets or corrosive chemicals might compromise the integrity of the mechanical components.

Key specifications

• Mounting diameter: 22mm
• Operation: 2-way with spring return
• Contact configuration: 2 x 1NO (Normally Open)
• Material: Metal construction
• Application: Industrial control

How to use

To install the LOVATO Electric LPSJ200, insert the joystick unit through a standard 22mm hole in your control panel or enclosure. Secure it firmly using the provided mounting adapter. Once mounted, attach the included 1NO contact blocks to the rear of the actuator. Ensure all electrical connections are made according to your system wiring diagram, verifying that the normally open contacts function correctly when the joystick is moved in the desired direction. Always test the spring return mechanism to ensure it resets smoothly before putting the equipment into full operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your control panel has a 22mm mounting hole available.
• Ensure that a 2-way switching configuration meets your specific operational requirements.
• Check that the 1NO contact configuration is compatible with your control circuit voltage and current ratings.
• Confirm the physical space behind the panel is sufficient for the joystick and contact block assembly.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the joystick for any signs of mechanical wear or debris accumulation. Ensure that the electrical contacts remain clean and free from oxidation to maintain reliable switching performance over the long term.
