Suitable for high demands in industrial applications. Existing mounting holes offer the option of screwing the foot switches to the surface. Each foot switch is equipped with four rubber feet to prevent slipping. The foot lever is made of thermoplastic. An accident protection cover made of die-cast aluminum completely shields the pedal from above and from the sides and, with its wide extension, ensures high stability. Accidental actuation by falling objects from above or carelessness from the side is thus prevented. Due to its stability, the cover can withstand a drop weight of 20 kg from a height of 1 m. Foot switches are often used as so-called 'command devices with automatic reset' or 'touch buttons' for short to put a machine into operation. Foot switches with an enabling function are ideal for this, as they meet very high safety requirements with the integrated approved enabling switch insert. The contact design and switching function of these switches are identical to those of the enabling foot switches. The pedal position can be detected dynamically with the signal contact or statically with the additional circuit board. The foot switch with enabling function is available with and without a detent and with an accident protection cover.
