Metis throttle accelerator manual controls - Technical characteristics

The Elen Metis series throttle accelerators are controls designed for all electrically powered work vehicles with a steering wheel, in particular for vehicles used for moving and lifting loads and for professional cleaning.
The Hall-effect operating principle, the firmware for managing the signal and trigger thresholds and the innovative magnetic return system make the mechanics extremely simple and reliable (reducing the presence of contact parts to the essential) and the signal precise, repeatable and programmable. These features, combined with the resin coating and sealed housing, make the product suitable for use in harsh environments.
The principle of operation is that a Hall sensor intercepts the field of the magnet integrated with the lever pin and provides an output signal that is linear and proportional to the angle of rotation.

PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONICS

- Supply voltage: 5 V; 10-30V; 12-48V
- Output signal: single, double, voltage, current, PWM and CAN BUS (SAE J1939)
- Configurable output (for each channel) in the ranges: 0-5V, 0-10V , 4-20mA, % duty cycle and CAN message

MECHANICS

- Friction control
- Compact solution
- Structure in plastic material with metal shaft
- 2 versions available with different dimensions and fixing points (up to 8 points fastening)
- Mechanical stroke: 90° (±45°)
- Customizable shaft length (optional butterflies, also available on request in a customizable version)
- Customizable cable and connector length

RELIABILITY

- Contactless Hall effect
- Output and IVS managed by the firmware, without contact switches or manual calibrations
- IP67 protection rating
- Infinite life cycle thanks to the magnetic return system
- Immunity to vibrations and electromagnetic disturbances
- Operating temperature: -40°/+85°
- Protection against reverse polarity to avoid damage to the accelerator if connected in incorrect way

FUNCTIONAL SAFETY

- Signal redundancy thanks to the integration of isolated and galvanically distinct circuits (double output version)

Mechanical configurations

The Metis throttle accelerator is available in 2 versions, which differ in the size of the cover and the number of fixing holes (standard version and lowered version).
