Wet-Location Foot Switches

With Guard

With Oversized Guard

Safe for use in wet locations, these switches are IP and NEMA rated for protection from corrosion, washdowns, and 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 an oversized guard accommodate bulky footwear.

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