FZ 1001-W3M2 Pizzato Position switch with short piston plunger and reset device
Pizzato FZ 1001-W3M2 is an industrial position switch with a short piston plunger, W3 reset device, 2NO slow-action contacts, metal housing, two M20 × 1.5 conduit entries and IP67 protection.
Why Choose the Pizzato FZ 1001-W3M2 Position Switch?
The Pizzato FZ 1001-W3M2 is a robust industrial position switch with short piston plunger and reset device designed for reliable mechanical position detection in machinery and automation systems. As part of the established Pizzato FZ series, it combines a durable metal housing, two threaded cable entries and slow-action contacts with reset functionality for dependable operation in industrial applications.
The FZ 1001-W3M2 uses a short piston plunger actuator to detect the movement, presence or end position of machine components. Its B10 contact block provides 2NO slow-action contacts, while the integrated reset device provides simultaneous reset functionality for applications where the switch state must be mechanically restored after actuation.
With a rugged metal housing, two M20 × 1.5 threaded conduit entries and IP67 protection according to EN 60529, the FZ 1001-W3M2 is well suited to industrial machinery where resistance to dust and water ingress is important. Its combination of mechanical actuation and reset functionality makes it suitable for machine builders, automation engineers and industrial maintenance applications.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery
Industrial position switches such as the Pizzato FZ 1001-W3M2 convert mechanical movement into an electrical switching signal for use by machine control and automation systems. When a moving machine component presses the short piston plunger, the internal slow-action contacts change state, allowing the control system to detect a defined position, presence or movement.
The integrated W3 reset device adds controlled reset functionality to the standard FZ switch design. Combined with its 2NO slow-action contacts, robust metal enclosure and two M20 cable entries, the FZ 1001-W3M2 provides a practical solution for machinery requiring dependable mechanical position detection with reset operation.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery position detection.
- Machine tools and automated production equipment.
- Conveyors and material handling systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Mechanical travel and end-position monitoring.
- Machine control applications requiring reset functionality.
