Foot Switches
Keep your hands free for other tasks by triggering switches with your foot.
Back-pivot switches actuate with a tap of the toe. Front-pivot switches reduce fatigue by letting you rest your foot on them. They won't actuate until you lean into them with your bodyweight. Center-pivot switches let you control two circuits with a single foot—one with your toe and one with your heel. Also known as rocker switches, they can be pressed either forward or backward, meaning you actuate one circuit at a time.
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 a three-prong outlet allow you to plug your device directly into the switch. You can power both the switch and the device with a single wall outlet—no wiring needed.
Optional guards prevent accidental switch actuation.

Wet-Location Foot Switches
Operate these switches hands-free when working in damp or humid environments. They’re IP and NEMA rated, so they won’t corrode when exposed to water, oil, or coolant spray.
Switches without a guard are unobstructed and let you press them from multiple angles. Switches with a guard shield the pedal so you don't accidentally step on it and activate the switch. Switches with an oversized guard fit bulky shoes and toe guards.
Two-speed switches have two contact points. Push the pedal halfway down for the slow speed or all the way down for the high speed.
Switches with a safety lever lock the pedal in place to prevent accidental activation. Fully insert your foot to release the safety lever. If the lever isn't released, the pedal won't depress.
Add an optional oversized guard to switches with or without a standard guard to shield the pedal from getting pressed by accident and to accommodate bulky shoes. Or, replace an existing oversized guard.

Corrosion-Resistant Washdown Foot Switches
Step on these switches to actuate a process hands-free in an area with frequent washdowns. Rated NEMA 6P, 13, and IP68, they protect against corrosion, washdowns, temporary submersion, and oil/coolant spraying. Made of aluminum, they resist corrosion better than iron and steel switches.
Switches without a guard let you easily see the pedal and step on it from many angles.
Switches with a guard shield the pedal from getting accidentally pressed down.

Hazardous Location Foot Switches
These switches are rated for environments where hazardous material is present. Press the pedal with your foot for hands-free operation. They have an oversized guard that accommodates bulky footwear.
Hazardous location environmental ratings indicate whether manufacturers have included safety features in products to facilitate their safe use in a hazardous environment. Before selecting a product for a hazardous location, ensure it is rated for your environment. See About Hazardous Location Environmental Ratings.

Variable-Speed Foot Switches
When the pedal is pressed, the built-in potentiometer adjusts the resistance to vary the speed for motor drives. These switches can be wired to either increase or decrease the current when actuated. All are rated NEMA 4 and 13 for protection from washdowns and oil/coolant spraying.

Air-Actuated Foot Switches
Press these switches with your foot for convenient, hands-free operation. They use air pressure to turn circuits on or off, keeping live electrical circuits away from work areas. Use the three-prong outlet to plug a device directly into the switch.
