ENERGY-SAVING HAPTIC ENCODERS BUILT FOR EXTREME DURABILITY
Easy on Battery Power, Tough in Harsh Environments
For manufacturers looking for low-power, high-performance encoders for their knobs, switches, pushbutton controls, or joysticks, Grayhill’s Premium Haptic Rotary Encoders are the benchmark by which all others are measured.
A FULL 2 YEARS OF POWER ON 2 AA BATTERIES
Our encoders boast 100 times more battery life than competing models for significant long-term savings on maintenance and replacement costs.
DELIVER THE PERFECT BLEND OF FEEL AND FUNCTION
With every turn or press, our Premium Haptic Rotary Encoders make users feel like they are intuitively connected to the machine they are operating. They are also built to conserve energy and withstand harsh environments—two critical advantages for manufacturers looking for flexibility and reliability in their next control panel assembly.
62A-D-V PREMIUM HAPTIC ENCODER
With rugged durability and premium tactile feedback with up to 32 detent and non-detent positions, Grayhill’s 62A-D-V delivers a powerful trifecta of benefits for manufacturers:
- Premium Tactile Control: Offers a superior haptic feel with customizable torque (like the high-torque style D), ensuring a precise and confident user interface.
- Rugged Durability: Engineered to perform in harsh conditions, withstanding extreme temperatures from -40 °F to 185 °F [-40 °C to 85 °C], significant vibration (15G), and mechanical shock (100G).
- Energy-Efficient Design: Our 62V encoder features low power consumption (as low as 3.3 V), perfect for high-efficiency components like CPUs and microcontrollers and battery-powered devices.

THE DIFFERENCE IS IN THE DETAILS
- Optical Coupling Technology
- Optional O-Ring Sealing
- Customizable Features
Optical Coupling Technology
We don’t just build encoders. We engineer them for a superior feel and a longer life. The secret behind our encoders’ durability is in our optical coupling technology, which is non-contacting for less wear and tear.
Optional O-Ring Sealing
We’ve added an O-ring on the shaft and a panel seal to the top surface, ensuring that water, dust, and foreign debris can’t get in. Our IP67-rated encoders undergo rigorous in-house testing, including vibration, shock, and temperature extremes, ensuring they perform reliably in the field.
Customizable Features
We can work with you to customize the torque profile, detent feel, and button actuation force to get the exact haptics you want. It’s all part of our commitment to creating high-quality, intuitive interfaces that help you sell more machines.
Key Features
Long Rotational Life: Our Premium Haptic Rotary Encoders are designed to last for years, utilizing non-contacting technology with a minimum rating of 1 million turns.
Premium Haptic Feedback: Deliver a premium haptic feel that stays consistent over time or customize to fine-tune the “click” and resistance to your preference.
Environmental Durability: Our sealed-option encoders keep dust and water out and withstand mechanical vibration and shock.
Optional Pushbutton: Combine two functions – rotation and selection – into a turn-to-navigate, press-to-select user interface.
Low-Power Consumption: Designed for energy-efficient systems, the 62V series operates at 3.3 V to minimize power usage in your application.
Two-Year Warranty: We’re so confident in our quality that we offer a two-year warranty, far surpassing competitors’ warranties.
