Rockers aim for off-road applications

AR4 and AR5 series analogue rocker switches from ITT Industries feature a contactless sensing design which gives an accurate, proportional output well-suited to off-road machinery.

AR4 and AR5 series analogue rocker switches from ITT Industries feature a contactless sensing design which gives an accurate, proportional output well-suited to off-road machinery With a life of more than one million cycles ( and more than 1.5 million cycles for the AR4), these devices deliver the reliability required for applications used in demanding environmental conditions as experienced by heavy duty applications

Targeted at panels, multifunction grips and finger-tip controls of electrohydraulic devices in electronic control systems, the AR4 is equipped with a thumbwheel-style actuator, whereas the AR5 features a paddle.

Both devices include integrated protection circuitry and temperature compensation.

Actuators can be customised for both the AR4 and the AR5 depending on ergonomic requirements.

AR4 and AR5 analogue rocker switches meet rigorous EMC and mechanical vibration standards.

They have also been tested to withstand salt spray and chemical splash (SAE J1455 4.3.3) tests.

The AR4 is protected to IP67; the AR5 meets IP65 requirements. Request a free brochure from ITT Interconnect Solutions ...
