    Down Pull

    Any-Direction

    Pull

    Tug the hanging rope to actuate these switches. They're rated NEMA 4 to protect against washdowns.
    Down Pull—Pull-down switches only actuate when you pull the rope directly down.
    Any-Direction Pull—Pull-any-direction switches actuate even when you pull the rope at an angle. These are good for spaces where you can't mount the switch directly above your workstation.
