    Cat 303E joystick voltage

    I noticed that several of these switches seemed to be rated for a substantial over-voltage? Ruffy SAT specs show the max overvoltage is 20 volts? There may be some wiggle room on voltage?

    Cat 303E joystick voltage

    Yes, I have checked digikey and mouser. Found some that may be able to be retrofit but they usually want a 5 volt power supply. That's why I needed to know if the 12 volts I measured was correct. A company called Cyber-tech offers what they call a 5 volt regulator so that should remedy the...

    Cat 303E joystick voltage

    "If only Cat would service the microswitches separately....." If only - If I can't come up with an alternate switch, I will plumb a foot operated pilot valve to control this function. For any that might be following this - If you own machines that have the proportional electrical thumbwheel...

    Cat 303E joystick voltage

    Can anyone advise what the voltage should be going to the proportional roller switches on the joysticks? I have 12 volts (14 when running) going into LH & RH. Output voltage between the two control wires on LH is +2.5v * 0 * -2.5v The RH (hydraulic thumb) works in one direction only. Output on...
