Directional Switches for Controlling Machines in Various Applications

Directional switches are used in agricultural machinery technology, conveyor technology in mechanical engineering, construction equipment, and for passenger transport. Since precision and safety are top priorities in these areas, we rely on OTTO Controls for these switches. The manufacturer’s directional switches are compact, very robust, and reliable. The switches have three positions (Forward, Neutral, Reverse) and ensure high operating comfort. A small movement is enough to change the direction of a machine. The non-contact signal transmission of the Hall effect sensor eliminates mechanical wear. This guarantees a long lifespan for the switches. The directional switches from OTTO Controls have protection class IP68S. This indicates how resistant the switch housings are to the ingress of foreign bodies and liquids. The first digit provides information about resistance to dirt particles. With the number six, the directional switches meet the highest safety level, meaning they are protected against harmful amounts of dust. The second digit refers to the watertightness of the housing and is also in the highest possible safety range with the number eight. Thus, the switches can withstand frequent submersion in water without problems.
