Foot Switch

Medium-duty foot switch

Description

The F500 is a medium-duty foot switch featuring a highly durable die-cast zinc alloy housing, powder-painted finish, and do-it-yourself wiring connection. This model has a heavy-duty switch that can handle more-demanding electrical loads than our F200 and similar models. It can handle greater inrush or motor-load currents (see chart) and has a Honeywell 20-amp 125/250VAC-rated switch with one common, one normally open, and one normally closed contact (SPDT, Form C).

Ideal for home and shop tools, motor on/off control, boom lifts, scissor lifts, man lifts, and more. The switch has #8 screw terminals. This is a momentary foot switch, which means that it actuates when your foot is on the foot pedal, and de-actuates when you release your foot from the pedal.

Includes adjustable strain relief connector, traction pad, and two exterior bolt-down holes.

Highlights

Optional Guard

The F-Series with Guards provide a tough powder-painted steel cover for any F-Series foot switch. The unit includes the foot switch enclosed in a tough 12-gauge steel guard. The guard provides a comfortable housing in which to locate the foot, as well as to protect the switch from debris.

Optional Protective Boot Cover

The vinyl boot cover can be attached onto any single F-Series foot switch with no tools required. The boot cover adds a layer of protection to keep out dirt, dust, light overhead dripping water, and other undesirable elements. Note: It does not make the foot switch waterproof or submergible, and it does not change the NEMA Enclosure Type 1 or IP 20 rating of the F-Series. It is made of Plastisol PVC material.

Dual Base Compatible

The DF-Series Dual Foot Switch allows the combination of two F-Series foot switches on a dual base, with a connection tube to route the wiring from one side to the other, and one cable exit point.
