Frequently asked questions

Common questions about LINEMASTER from 3G Electric.

What is the difference between the Linemaster Hercules Series and the Twin Clipper Series foot switches?

The Linemaster Hercules Series is a single-pedal foot switch line, with models like the 531-SWH and 531-SWHOX featuring one momentary SPDT switch and an optional foot guard. The Twin Clipper Series, such as the TWIN 632-S, has two pedals, each with its own momentary SPDT switch, allowing independent control of two functions. Both series are electrically corded and designed for industrial use. The choice depends on whether one or two control functions are needed.

Are Linemaster explosion-proof foot switches suitable for hazardous locations?

Yes, Linemaster offers explosion-proof foot switches in its 500 Series, such as the 597-EX. These are designed for environments where flammable gases or dusts may be present. The 597-EX is a twin-pedal model with two SPDT momentary contacts and includes a guard. The explosion-proof enclosure is intended to contain internal sparks or explosions, preventing ignition of the surrounding atmosphere. Always verify the specific classification and certification of the switch for your application.

What is the purpose of the Linemaster foot switch guard, such as the 532-SWHOX?

The Linemaster 532-SWHOX is a cast iron guard designed to shield foot switches from accidental activation and physical impact. It is used in industrial environments like manufacturing and assembly lines where foot pedal protection is needed. The guard helps prevent unintended operation of the switch, which can be critical for safety. It is compatible with certain Linemaster foot switch models, and the cast iron construction provides durability against heavy use.

Can Linemaster twin-pedal foot switches be used for independent control of two separate circuits?

Yes, Linemaster twin-pedal foot switches, such as those in the Twin Classic IV and Twin Aquiline series, feature two separate SPDT momentary switches, each operated by its own pedal. This allows independent control of two functions or circuits. For example, the TWIN 88SN1-05 has two pedals with momentary action, and the TWIN 88SH1-05 includes a foot guard. These switches are commonly used in applications requiring hands-free operation of two distinct machine actions.

What cord lengths are available for Linemaster foot switches?

Linemaster foot switches are available with various cord lengths depending on the model. For instance, the Twin Aquiline Series (e.g., 1AGP4) comes with an 8 ft cord. Other series may have different standard lengths. The cord length is specified in the product details, and it is important to select a length that suits the installation. If a longer cord is needed, extension cables or custom wiring may be required, but always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for electrical connections.
