Main Content

Robust and Reliable Pedal Solution

The series 552 is a contacting accelerator pedal solution, designed to accelerate vehicles based on the displacement of the pedal pad. Functioning according to the potentiometer principle, linear movement of the foot on the pedal pad is transferred to an acceleration command for the vehicle through a linear voltage change. Consequently, the series 552 offers high reliability and durability, making it effective not just for passenger transportation, but also in heavy-duty vehicles, operating in harsh environments such as construction sites, crop fields, warehouses and industrial settings.
