LOVATO Electric LPSJ201 22mm Metal Two-Way Joystick Switch, Non-Spring Return, with Adapter and 2 NO Contacts

The LOVATO Electric LPSJ201 is a professional-grade 22mm two-way joystick switch engineered for demanding industrial control environments. Constructed with a durable metal housing, this device provides reliable manual input for machinery, control panels, and automation systems. The unit features a non-spring return mechanism, allowing the joystick to maintain its selected position until manually moved, which is ideal for applications requiring sustained operator input.

Advantages

This joystick switch offers exceptional mechanical durability thanks to its robust metal construction, making it suitable for high-frequency use in harsh industrial settings. The inclusion of an installation adapter simplifies the mounting process on standard 22mm control panel cutouts. With two normally open contacts included, the device is ready for immediate integration into control circuits, providing consistent and precise electrical switching performance.

Suitable for

• Industrial machinery control panels
• Automation and robotics interfaces
• Conveyor system manual overrides
• Heavy-duty equipment operation

This switch may not be suitable for applications requiring momentary contact, as the non-spring return mechanism keeps the switch in the engaged position until manually reset. It is also not intended for environments where high-pressure water jets or corrosive chemicals are present without additional protective enclosures.

Key specifications

• Mounting diameter: 22mm
• Operation type: Two-way, non-spring return
• Contact configuration: 2 Normally Open (NO) contacts
• Material: Metal housing
• Included components: Installation adapter

To install the device, insert the joystick through a standard 22mm hole on the control panel and secure it using the provided adapter. Ensure that the electrical connections are wired to the normally open contact blocks according to your specific control circuit diagram. Once installed, the joystick can be moved to the desired position, where it will remain locked until the operator manually returns it to the center.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 22mm mounting hole is compatible with your existing panel layout.
• Confirm that your control logic requires a maintained (non-spring return) action.
• Ensure the electrical load does not exceed the rating of the provided contact blocks.

For optimal longevity, perform periodic inspections of the mechanical movement and ensure that the electrical terminals remain tightened to prevent loose connections in high-vibration environments.
