Why Choose the Lovato KR200S11S Metal Foot Switch?
The Lovato KR200S11S is a robust single-pedal industrial foot switch designed for hands-free control of machinery and equipment. Part of the Lovato KR foot switch range, it combines a durable metal enclosure with a protected pedal and a 1NO + 1NC snap-action contact configuration for dependable machine control.
Designed for free pedal operation, the KR200S11S allows an operator to activate a machine function with their foot while keeping both hands available for handling components, tools or workpieces. The protective metal hood helps guard the pedal against unintended operation, while the aluminium and zinc alloy construction provides the mechanical durability required in industrial environments.
The KR200S11S is the enhanced-sealing version of this foot switch and provides IP65 enclosure protection. It features a conventional thermal current rating of 10 A, a rated insulation voltage of 440 V, an M20 cable entry and screw-terminal wiring, making it suitable for integration into industrial machine-control circuits.
