Purpose
Designed for drip-tight, dust-tight, watertight and oil-tight installations with an extra oversized shield for heavy-duty environments

Features & Benefits

• Rugged cast-iron housing providing weight and stability to prevent switch movement during operation
• Neoprene cover gasket, O-rings on the activating shaft and a separate ground screw included
• Three mounting holes for rigid floor or equipment attachment
• Potentiometer available in selected linear values; specify maximum resistance required

Materials

• Treadle and housing constructed from cast iron for mechanical strength
• Protected by a large cast-aluminum OX shield
• Finish: Painted Alert Orange
• Standard single 3/4"-14 NPT threaded conduit entry; metric and dual entries available on request
• Designed for use with variable-speed motor drives; available in selected 2 watt linear values
• Depressing the treadle rotates the potentiometer from zero to the selected maximum resistance
• Treadle is spring-loaded and returns to the normal position when foot pressure is removed
• Auxiliary contact (optional) rated at 15 A, 125-250 VAC
• Switch actuation can be set to operate at the beginning of the treadle stroke
• Up to three SPDT auxiliary switches can be added and adjusted to operate at any point of the treadle stroke

Options

• Dual 1/2"-14 NPT threaded conduit entry or metric conduit sizes available to OEMs on special order
• Available potentiometer values: 5KΩ or 10KΩ; other values by special order
• Models with cast-aluminum base and covers available (unshielded cover is gray iron)
