Washdown Foot Switches

Stainless Steel

Iron with Guard

Iron with Oversized Guard

Three-Prong Outlet

These switches meet requirements for protection from washdowns.

IP67 rated switches protect against temporary submersion.

NEMA 13 rated switches are protected from oil/coolant spraying.

Two-speed switches have staged contacts. For slow speed, push the pedal halfway to close the first contact; for high speed, push it all the way to close the second contact.

Switches with front pivot reduce user fatigue.

Switches with a three-prong outlet let you plug a device directly into the switch.

Switches with an oversized guard accommodate bulky footwear.

Switches with a safety lever prevent accidental activation; the lever must be pushed forward before pressing the pedal.
