FP 205 Pizzato Position switch with one-way roller
MPN: FP 205
Alt. SKU: FP205
Why Choose the Pizzato FP205 Position Limit Switch?
The Pizzato FP205 is a robust position limit switch with angled one-way roller actuator, engineered for precise and reliable detection in industrial automation systems. As part of the proven Pizzato FP series, it is designed to deliver consistent switching performance in demanding environments where durability and accuracy are essential.
This model features an angled one-way roller lever, allowing directional actuation so the switch is triggered only when approached from a specific direction. Its glass-reinforced technopolymer housing ensures excellent resistance to mechanical stress, dust and moisture, making it suitable for harsh industrial conditions.
The FP205 is equipped with a 2 x (1 NO + 1 NC) snap-action contact configuration, offering flexible switching for both control and signalling applications. With a PG13.5 conduit entry, it allows secure installation in machinery, conveyors and automation systems.
