A footswitch<\/strong> lets you operate devices and software without taking your hands off the task at hand. In medical technology, diagnostics, laboratory and test engineering and in industrial applications, footswitches are therefore an important part of ergonomic workplaces.<\/p>\n

emoswitch footswitches by EMO Systems<\/strong> combine a particularly flat design with robust materials, precise switching technology and different connection options. Wired and wireless variants are available, as well as single and double pedal versions.<\/p>\n

Medical footswitches for demanding workplaces<\/h2>\n

A footswitch for medical technology has to work reliably in daily use and be easy to clean. The emoswitch models were developed for professional use and have a robust aluminium housing with stainless steel on the base and pedals. The materials used are resistant to common cleaning agents and disinfectants.<\/p>\n

Flat, robust and ergonomic<\/h2>\n

The flat construction of the emoswitch footswitches makes them comfortable to operate. The pedal is easy to reach and is actuated with a clearly defined switching point.<\/p>\n

On the classic emoswitch variants, the switching point of the microswitch can be adjusted individually. On double pedal versions, one or two microswitches per pedal can be fitted depending on the variant. This makes two-stage or self-monitoring circuits possible, for example.<\/p>\n

Wired or wireless footswitch?<\/h2>\n

Depending on the workplace and system requirements, EMO Systems offers different connection options.<\/p>\n

Wired footswitches<\/strong> are particularly suited to fixed installations. The emoswitch-connect variants can be connected to USB systems through an adapter and are recognised by the computer as an HID input device.<\/p>\n

Wireless footswitches<\/strong> give more freedom of movement at the workplace. The receiver also works as an HID device, so no additional drivers are required. Every wireless footswitch has an individual 48-bit code to prevent false triggering by other wireless footswitches.<\/p>\n

Single and double pedal footswitches<\/h2>\n

Single pedal footswitches are suited to individual operating functions. Double pedal models allow several functions to be controlled with a single footswitch.<\/p>\n

The right choice depends on the application, the connected system and the operating logic required.<\/p>\n
