The KACON HRF-HD8 Industrial Foot Switch is a heavy duty footswitch engineered for reliable operation in the most demanding industrial environments. Widely used in automation systems, machinery control, and various factory applications, this foot pedal plays an essential role in ensuring safe and efficient production processes. It is the ideal choice for enhancing productivity and operational safety in harsh conditions, providing reliable foot control that frees up the operator's hands.
The HRF-HD8 features an ergonomic, low-profile pedal with an anti-skid surface for secure operation. Its arc-shaped housing offers 200J impact resistance, while the powder-coated exterior ensures durability in harsh environments. A blue LED gives clear visual feedback, and a protective cover prevents accidental activation from falling objects..
Robust & Durable: Features an impact-resistant arc-shaped housing (meeting the 200J anti-impact benchmark) with an electrostatic powder coating for superior endurance in tough working conditions.
Safe & Secure: Includes a built-in mechanical interlock to prevent accidental simultaneous circuit operation and a smooth protective cover. Its IP67 high protection rating (achieved with a double silicone gasket) makes it impervious to dust, moisture, and splashes.
Long-Lasting Stability: The core micro switch offers a mechanical life of up to 1 million operations. The 24K gold-plated contacts ensure stable signal transmission and excellent conductivity.
Ergonomic Design: The low-profile pedal with an anti-skid surface and a clear blue LED indicator light enhances operator comfort, security, and situational awareness.
