The 972 000 series electronic hand throttle delivers precision remote engine speed control for heavy-duty industrial machinery. Engineered with IP69K ingress protection, this rugged throttle lever withstands high-pressure washdowns, extreme temperatures, and demanding off-road environments. Factory-programmable output signals including Analogue, PWM, and CAN J1939 enable seamless integration with existing electronic control systems across mining, agriculture, marine, and construction applications.
The Electronic Hand Throttle 972 000 series is a purpose-built industrial hand throttle control designed for applications requiring reliable remote engine speed modulation. Featuring a smooth 90-degree travel angle, this electronic throttle lever provides operators with precise, infinitely variable control over engine RPM, hydraulic pump output, or auxiliary functions. Rated IP69K for complete protection against dust and high-pressure water jets, the unit thrives in harsh environments where mud, moisture, and temperature extremes are common. Factory-configurable output signals—including Analogue, PWM, IVS, Current, CAN J1939, and CANopen—allow the throttle to interface with both legacy and modern electronic control units, making it a versatile solution for OEMs and system integrators worldwide.
The Electronic Hand Throttle 972 000 series combines extreme environmental protection with flexible electronic interfaces, delivering reliable remote engine speed control across the most demanding industries.

The Electronic Hand Throttle 972 000 series converts mechanical lever movement into a proportional electronic signal that communicates with an engine ECU or machine control system. When the operator moves the lever through its 90-degree travel range, an internal non-contact position sensor detects the exact angular position and translates it into the selected output format—whether Analogue, PWM, or CAN J1939. This signal is transmitted via the AMP 6-pin connector to the receiving control unit, which adjusts engine RPM, hydraulic pump output, or other parameters accordingly. The lever can be set to any position within its travel range, providing infinitely variable control. In applications requiring idle validation, the IVS output confirms when the throttle is at the idle position, adding an extra layer of safety. For CAN-based systems, the throttle broadcasts engine speed requests directly onto the vehicle network using standard J1939 or CANopen protocols, enabling seamless integration with existing electronic architectures.
The 972 000 series electronic hand throttle carries an IP69K rating, providing complete dust-tight protection and resistance to high-pressure, high-temperature water jets, making it suitable for outdoor and heavy-duty washdown environments.
The throttle can be factory-configured for Analogue, PWM (Pulse Width Modulation), IVS (Idle Validation Switch), Current output, CAN J1939, or CANopen protocols, allowing it to interface with a wide range of control systems.
