Pizzato FD series limit switches are metal-bodied ‘Heavy Duty’ models suitable for demanding applications, with operating temperatures ranging from -40°C to +80°C. A special model can withstand temperatures up to 180°C.
Features:
Pizzato FR series limit switches have plastic bodies, making them affordable and suitable for most basic limit switch applications.
Features:
Pizzato FM series limit switches are affordable, compact, and more resistant to mechanical stress than plastic-bodied models. The mounting is in accordance with EN 50047.
Features:
Pizzato’s range includes pre-cabled compact limit switches with excellent protection ratings of IP67/IP69K and a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C (with -T6 option).
Features:
A mechanical limit switch responds to physical movement or position. The switch consists of a moving part, such as a lever, and a fixed part containing metal contacts. The operation of a mechanical limit switch is based on movement that activates the switch, causing the contacts to connect, allowing electrical current to flow, and indicating the status of the switch. These are widely used in automation systems, such as doors, elevators, and conveyors.
An inductive limit switch detects the presence or distance of metallic objects without direct contact. It operates using induction: when a metal object enters the detection range, it changes the device’s inductance, which is detected. This information is widely used in automation systems, such as controlling machines, conveyors, and production lines. Inductive limit switches offer reliable, contactless event detection in industrial applications.
A magnetic limit switch detects changes in a magnetic field within a defined area. This occurs when a magnetic object, such as a magnet or ferromagnetic material, enters the detection zone. Changes in the magnetic field are detected and converted into an electrical signal. These switches are often used for monitoring the status of gates, doors, or machines, providing a contactless and reliable event detection method.
