Shrouded Foot Operated Switch, SPST, 250V AC, 6A

The SFS-UFS Shrouded Foot Operated Switch from IMO Precision Controls is engineered for safe, hands-free control in demanding industrial and workshop environments. Its robust, shock-proof technopolymer housing provides excellent durability and operator safety, making it an ideal solution for machinery where manual operation is impractical or poses a risk.

Featuring a distinctive Yellow RAL 1023 cover, the switch offers high visibility for easy identification and operation. It is designed with IP65 protection, ensuring it is dust-tight and protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction. This ingress protection rating makes it suitable for use in areas where exposure to dust, dirt, or light splashing is a concern.

The switch is configured with a versatile single-pole, single-throw contact arrangement, providing both one normally open (1NO) and one normally closed (1NC) contact. This allows for flexible integration into various control circuits. Rated for a maximum contact current of 6A at 250V AC, it is capable of controlling a wide range of industrial loads.

The foot-operated design enables efficient and ergonomic control, freeing the user's hands for other tasks and enhancing both productivity and safety. Its compact and shrouded construction minimises the risk of accidental activation and protects the internal mechanism from impact and environmental contaminants.
