Why Choose the Pizzato FD1305 Position Limit Switch?
The Pizzato FD1305 is a heavy-duty industrial position limit switch engineered for accurate detection of mechanical movement in demanding automation and safety applications. As part of the rugged Pizzato FD series, it features a one-way roller lever actuator, enabling precise directional actuation for controlled machine positioning.
Built with a durable metal housing, the FD1305 is designed for long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments. It incorporates a slow-action contact system with 2 normally closed (NC) contacts, offering dependable performance in safety circuits where fail-safe operation is required.
With a PG13.5 conduit entry, IP67 protection rating and operating temperature range of approximately -25 °C to +80 °C, the FD1305 provides consistent performance in environments exposed to dust, moisture and vibration.
Key Advantages
- Heavy-duty limit switch for industrial automation and safety.
- One-way roller lever actuator for directional detection.
- Robust metal housing for harsh environments.
- 2 NC contact configuration ideal for fail-safe circuits.
- Slow-action switching ensures stable operation.
- IP67 protection against dust and water ingress.
Key Features
- Pizzato FD series position switch.
- One-way roller lever actuator.
- Slow-action contact block (2 NC).
- Positive opening contacts for safety compliance.
- Silver contacts for reliable electrical conductivity.
- Single conduit entry PG13.5.

Fail-Safe Directional Detection for Machinery
The FD1305 is designed to detect mechanical movement in a specific direction using its one-way roller lever. This ensures accurate triggering only when movement occurs in the intended direction, reducing false signals and improving system reliability.
Its normally closed contact configuration provides fail-safe operation, opening the circuit in the event of a fault or actuator release, which is essential for safety-critical industrial applications.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlocking systems.
- Industrial automation and control panels.
- Conveyor and material handling equipment.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Directional position detection systems.
- OEM machinery and manufacturing environments.
