Technical Details
Frequently Asked Questions
What does "spring return, 2 positions" mean?
The lever operates on one axis (2 directions, e.g. up/down or left/right) and springs back to centre-off whenever you release it — so it only actuates while you're actively holding it over.
Can this control 4-axis movement instead?
No — this is the 2-position (single-axis) version. For 4-axis (up/down and left/right) control, use the CP707DJ41 spring-return joystick instead.
What contact configuration does it give me?
1NO+1NO — one normally-open contact per direction, so each direction of travel can be wired to a separate output.
Is it suitable for washdown or outdoor equipment?
Yes — IP65 rated, protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets.
