Why Choose the Pizzato MKH12F32 Safety Microswitch?
The Pizzato MKH12F32 is a high-performance industrial microswitch with rear long lever and roller actuator, designed for precise position detection and reliable switching in automation systems. As part of the advanced Pizzato MK series, it delivers excellent durability, high electrical reliability and consistent performance in demanding industrial environments.
This model features a back direct action long lever (approximately 54 mm) with roller, allowing actuation from the rear with extended reach. This configuration is ideal for machinery requiring early detection, wider mechanical tolerances or indirect actuation through linkages.
With a 1 NO + 1 NC snap-action contact configuration, the MKH12F32 ensures fast and dependable switching. Its reinforced technopolymer housing provides high resistance to impact and wear, while optional terminal covers allow protection up to IP65, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments.
Key Advantages
- Reliable microswitch with rear long lever actuator.
- Extended 54 mm lever allows early and flexible actuation.
- Back direct actuation enables installation flexibility.
- Smooth roller reduces mechanical wear and friction.
- Snap-action switching ensures fast and consistent response.
- Optional sealing up to IP65 for demanding environments.
Key Features
- Pizzato MK series microswitch.
- 1 NO + 1 NC (changeover) contacts.
- Rear long lever with roller (~54 mm).
- Back direct action switching mechanism.
