Remote Controls for Digwands

Why a Kill Switch & Motion Detection matter to Digwand Operators

Wireless kill switches are important for operators of hydrovacs due to several reasons:

  • Safety cone

    Increased operator safety

    The high pressure stream of water from digwands poses a great risk to people and property if an operator drops or loses control of a digwand. A wireless kill switch will immediately cut the stream of water and the risk it poses to its surroundings.

  • Stop hand

    Motion detection

    A risky situation can develop faster than a human can react which is why motion detection is a critical feature for a digwand kill switch. Motion detection features will automatically cut the stream of water when they sense the digwand moving to an unsafe angle.
