Why Choose the Pizzato FDE158 Position Switch?

The Pizzato FDE158 is a heavy-duty position switch for rotating lever applications, designed to provide precise and reliable detection in industrial automation systems. As part of the advanced Pizzato FD series, it combines rugged construction with modern electronic output technology for improved performance and integration.

This model features a 1 normally open (1NO) and 1 normally closed (1NC) electronic PNP output configuration, enabling direct interfacing with PLCs and control systems. The electronic contact design offers improved signal reliability and reduced mechanical wear compared to traditional contact blocks.

Built with a durable metal housing, PG13.5 threaded conduit entry and IP67 protection rating, the FDE158 is engineered to withstand harsh industrial environments including dust, moisture and mechanical stress while maintaining consistent operation.

Key Advantages

  • Reliable position detection for rotating lever mechanisms.
  • Electronic PNP output (1NO + 1NC) for modern control systems.
  • Reduced mechanical wear compared to traditional contacts.
  • Durable metal housing for industrial environments.
  • IP67 protection against dust and water ingress.
  • Ideal for PLC integration and automation systems.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FD series position switch.
  • Electronic contact block (PNP output, E1 configuration).
  • 1NO + 1NC electronic outputs.
  • Compact head for rotating levers.
  • Metal housing with single conduit entry.
  • PG13.5 threaded cable entry (no gland supplied).
  • Supplied without actuator for flexible configuration.
  • Designed for integration with PLC and automation systems.

Modern Electronic Switching for Automation

The FDE158 is designed for applications where electronic outputs are preferred over mechanical contacts. Its PNP output enables direct connection to PLC inputs, improving signal stability and reducing maintenance requirements.

This makes it particularly suitable for modern industrial systems where reliability, fast response and long service life are essential.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial automation and PLC-controlled systems.
  • Conveyor and material handling equipment.
  • Position monitoring of rotating components.
  • Packaging and processing machinery.
  • Machine control and signalling systems.
  • OEM machinery and smart automation solutions.
