Why Choose the Lovato KG210S22S Plastic Foot Switch?
The Lovato KG210S22S is a robust single-pedal industrial foot switch designed to provide convenient hands-free control of machinery and automated equipment. As part of the Lovato K series foot switch range, it combines a durable polymer thermoplastic enclosure with a protective cover and safety lever for dependable operation in industrial control applications.
Unlike standard 1NO+1NC versions, the KG210S22S incorporates 2NO+2NC snap-action contacts, providing two normally open and two normally closed circuits from a single pedal. This expanded contact arrangement offers greater flexibility for simultaneous control, signalling, interlocking and monitoring functions within machinery and automation systems.
The KG210 platform has a 10 A conventional thermal current rating, 690 V rated insulation voltage and 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage. The safety lever helps prevent unintended operation unless the operator's foot is correctly positioned, while the protective cover provides additional guarding against accidental pedal activation.

Reliable Hands-Free Control for Industrial Machinery
Foot switches such as the Lovato KG210S22S allow operators to issue machine commands while keeping both hands available for handling workpieces, tools or materials. Pressing the pedal operates the 2NO+2NC snap-action contacts, enabling multiple control and signalling circuits to change state simultaneously.
The KG210 design combines a protective pedal cover with a safety lever that helps prevent unintended operation unless the operator's foot is correctly positioned. This arrangement makes the KG210S22S particularly suitable for industrial workstations and production equipment where deliberate foot-operated control and multiple switching contacts are required.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine control functions.
- Assembly and production workstations.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Machine tools and manufacturing equipment.
- Material handling and positioning systems.
- Industrial automation equipment.
- Operator-controlled production processes.
- Applications requiring multiple contacts from a hands-free control.
