Designed to be drip tight, dust tight, watertight and oil tight; extra oversized shield for hazardous or exposed environments

Features & Benefits

• Rugged cast-metal enclosure provides weight and stability to prevent sliding during operation
• Neoprene cover gasket plus O-rings on the activating shaft and a separate ground screw for reliable sealing and safety
• Three holes for rigid mounting to floor or equipment
• Specify the maximum resistance required; available in selected linear values

Materials

• Treadle and housing constructed from cast iron for strength and durability
• Protected by a strong cast aluminum shield
• Painted Alert Orange finish
• Single 3/4"-14 NPT threaded conduit entry is standard (special dual and metric options available)
• Depressing the treadle rotates the potentiometer from zero to the selected maximum resistance
• Spring-loaded treadle returns to normal position when foot pressure is removed
• Auxiliary switch contact rated at 15A, 125-250 VAC can be added
• Switch operation can be set at the beginning of the treadle stroke; up to three SPDT switches can be added and adjusted for operation at any point of the stroke
• Designed for use with variable-speed motor drives; available in selected 2 Watt linear values

Options

• Special dual 3/4"-14 NPT threaded conduit entry and metric sizes available to OEMs on special order
• Available potentiometer values: 5,000 Ohm or 10,000 Ohm; other values available by special order
• Models available with cast aluminum base and covers (except unshielded cover which is gray iron)
