Why Choose the Lovato KG200L11S Plastic Foot Switch?
The Lovato KG200L11S is a single-pedal plastic foot switch designed for hands-free control of industrial machinery and equipment. Part of the Lovato K series of limit, micro and foot switches, it provides a practical operator interface for applications where a machine function needs to be controlled by foot while the operator's hands remain available for other tasks.
This model features a free-movement pedal with slow-action switching and a 1 normally open + 1 normally closed (1NO + 1NC) contact configuration. The complementary contacts provide flexibility for control, signalling and interlocking circuits within industrial machinery and automation systems.
The KG200L11S is housed in a durable plastic enclosure and provides IP65 protection, helping protect the switching mechanism against dust and water jets in suitable industrial environments. Its single-pedal design makes it well suited to production equipment, assembly machinery and other applications requiring reliable hands-free control.

Reliable Hands-Free Control for Industrial Machinery
Foot switches allow an operator to initiate or interrupt an electrical control function without using their hands. This can be particularly useful on machinery where the operator needs to hold a component, guide material or perform another manual task while simultaneously controlling part of the machine cycle.
The Lovato KG200L11S combines a free-moving single pedal with slow-action 1NO + 1NC contacts, allowing complementary control functions to be operated from one foot action. Its plastic IP65 enclosure makes it a practical choice for appropriately designed industrial control systems requiring a robust floor-operated switching device.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery requiring hands-free operator control.
- Assembly and production equipment.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Machine tools and workshop equipment.
- Material handling systems.
- Manufacturing and fabrication equipment.
- OEM machinery and automation systems.
- Control, signalling and machine-cycle initiation circuits.
