FZ 1002 Pizzato Position switch with one-way roller

Why Choose the Pizzato FZ 1002 Position Switch?

The Pizzato FZ 1002 is a robust industrial position switch with roller plunger actuator 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 with slow-action contacts and a compact actuator arrangement for dependable operation in demanding industrial applications.

The FZ 1002 uses a roller plunger actuator to detect the movement, presence or end position of machine components. The roller provides a low-friction contact surface for cams and moving mechanisms, helping achieve smooth, repeatable mechanical actuation where sliding contact with a conventional plunger would be less suitable.

With its rugged metal enclosure, two PG13.5 threaded cable entries and IP67 protection, the FZ 1002 is designed for industrial environments where reliable switching and resistance to dust and water ingress are important. Its straightforward electromechanical design 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 1002 convert mechanical movement into an electrical switching signal for use by machine control and automation systems. When a moving machine component or cam operates the roller plunger, the internal contacts change state, allowing the control system to detect a defined position, presence or movement.

The FZ series is designed for industrial applications and is available with a range of actuator and contact arrangements. The FZ 1002 combines a practical roller plunger mechanism with a strong metal enclosure and dual cable entries, making it suitable for new machinery, replacement installations and industrial maintenance.

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.
• Cam-operated machine control systems.
