RF GFI and RF GFSI industrial foot switches
The new RF GFI and RF GFSI battery-operated industrial foot switches from Steute feature the company’s new wireless protocol and can be positioned at the point of use.

The IP67-rated foot switches are suitable for use in operating temperatures between -20°C and 65°C.
