Why Choose the Pizzato FD1234 Limit Switch?
The Pizzato FD1234 is a heavy-duty industrial position limit switch with coiled spring rod actuator, designed for reliable and flexible position detection in demanding automation environments. As part of the rugged Pizzato FD series, it delivers consistent switching performance and long mechanical life in high-cycle industrial applications.
This model features a coiled spring lever with plastic tip, allowing tolerance to misalignment and variable contact points. This makes it ideal for machinery where movement is not perfectly aligned. Its metal housing with PG13.5 conduit entry ensures durability and resistance to vibration, dust, and moisture in harsh industrial conditions.
Equipped with a 2 NO snap-action contact configuration, the FD1234 provides fast and reliable switching for control and signalling circuits. This makes it well suited for industrial automation systems requiring precise and repeatable switching behaviour.
