Why Choose the Pizzato VF B701 Position Switch?
The Pizzato VF B701 is a compact and reliable indoor-use position switch designed for detecting the position or movement of mechanical components in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the proven Pizzato VF series, it features a technopolymer push button actuator and a 1NC+1NO slow-action overlapped contact block for dependable position monitoring.
This position switch uses a compact open-design construction with a technopolymer plunger and silver contacts. The slow-action overlapped switching mechanism provides a controlled contact sequence in which the normally open and normally closed contacts overlap during actuation, making the switch suitable for applications requiring make-before-break operation.
With a 1NC+1NO contact configuration and positive opening, the VF B701 provides flexible switching and dependable monitoring in a single compact device. It is designed for indoor industrial machinery, control systems and automation equipment where reliable mechanical position detection is required.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery
Position switches provide a simple and dependable method of detecting the movement or position of mechanical parts within industrial machinery. The Pizzato VF B701 uses a mechanical technopolymer push button to actuate its slow-action overlapped contacts, providing a controlled electrical switching sequence when the actuator is operated.
The overlapped contact arrangement allows the normally open and normally closed contacts to overlap during switching, providing make-before-break operation. Combined with positive opening and a compact construction, this makes the VF B701 suitable for a range of indoor machinery and automation installations.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery position monitoring.
- Machine limit and end-position detection.
- Automation equipment.
- Mechanical interlocking and control systems.
- Conveyor and material-handling machinery.
- Machine control and industrial position sensing.
