FM 1501-V9 Pizzato Position switch with plunger

Why Choose the Pizzato FM1501-V9 Position Switch?

The Pizzato FM1501-V9 is a reliable and precision-engineered position (limit) switch with short piston plunger actuator, designed for accurate detection of mechanical movement in industrial automation systems. As part of the proven Pizzato FM series, it delivers consistent performance in demanding environments where durability and repeatability are essential.

Built with a robust metal housing and featuring a standard PG13.5 conduit entry, the FM1501-V9 is designed to withstand dust, moisture and mechanical stress. Its short plunger actuator with reduced pre-travel ensures fast and precise switching, making it ideal for applications requiring accurate positioning.

This model incorporates a 2 NO slow-action contact configuration with shifted contacts, providing stable and reliable switching performance. Designed without automatic reset, it is well suited for controlled industrial processes and automation systems.
