Data Sheet
Control Handle
MCHXXX Series
Mobile machine control handle
The MCHXXX Single Axis Control Handle provides
remote electrical actuation of Danfoss pumps/motors,
and or other electrically actuated pump strokers for
open loop control systems. The MCHXXX can function
as a setpoint for analog or microprocessor-controlled
systems for controlling position, speed, pressure,
horsepower, or other dynamic parameters.
User interface
Three mounting styles, with or without watertight
case. Rugged components designed for the
construction environment. High-torque handle
actuation gives sure feel. Simple to install. Mechanical
options include center-lock, spring-return, friction
drag, bi-directional, uni-directional and optional wire
harness with a variety of electrical connectors.
Electrical characteristics are customized to the
application.
Reliable performance
A center-off micro switch can be specified and in with
most MCHXXX models the center-off switch is factory
prewired.
Serviceability
The MCHXXX design allows for easy access to parts
that require service.
