Why Choose the Pizzato FD1809-M2 Rope Position Switch?
The Pizzato FD1809-M2 is a heavy-duty rope-operated position switch, designed for reliable signalling across large industrial machinery and conveyor systems. As part of the robust Pizzato FD series, it delivers consistent switching performance and long mechanical life in demanding automation environments.
This model features a 1 normally open (NO) and 1 normally closed (NC) slow-action contact configuration, providing flexible control and signalling capability. Its rugged metal housing and IP67 protection rating ensure dependable operation in harsh environments including dust, moisture and vibration.
The integrated rope actuator allows activation from multiple points along a cable line, making it ideal for long conveyors and extended machinery. The M20 x 1.5 threaded conduit entry ensures easy installation, with this version supplied without a cable gland for flexible configuration.
