Why Choose the Pizzato FXE157 Position Switch?
The Pizzato FXE157 is a high-performance industrial position / limit switch with electronic output, designed for precise detection of mechanical movement in automation systems. As part of the advanced Pizzato FX series, it combines durable construction with modern electronic sensing for reliable operation in demanding environments.
This model features a long roller lever actuator with a technopolymer roller (20 mm diameter), ensuring smooth and accurate actuation even in high-cycle applications. Its technopolymer housing provides excellent resistance to impact, dust and moisture, making it suitable for harsh industrial conditions.
With a 1 NO + 1 NC electronic PNP output configuration, the FXE157 is ideal for integration with PLCs and control systems requiring solid-state signalling. The switch includes dual PG13.5 conduit entries and operates across a wide temperature range, ensuring flexibility and reliability in industrial installations.
