Why Choose the Pizzato FD1305-M2 Position Limit Switch?
The Pizzato FD1305-M2 is a heavy-duty industrial position limit switch designed for precise detection of mechanical movement in demanding automation and safety environments. As part of the rugged Pizzato FD series, it features a one-way roller lever actuator, enabling accurate directional actuation for controlled machine positioning.
This variant includes a robust metal housing and a standard M20 × 1.5 threaded conduit entry, ensuring secure installation using industrial cable glands. The switch is equipped with a slow-action contact system with 2 normally closed (NC) contacts, making it ideal for safety circuits requiring fail-safe operation.
With an IP67 protection rating and operating temperature range of approximately -25 °C to +80 °C, the FD1305-M2 provides reliable performance in harsh environments exposed to dust, moisture and vibration.

Fail-Safe Directional Detection for Machinery
The FD1305-M2 is designed to detect movement in a specific direction using its one-way roller lever. This ensures accurate switching only when movement occurs in the intended direction, preventing false triggering and improving system reliability.
Its normally closed contact configuration ensures fail-safe behaviour by opening the circuit in the event of a fault or actuator release, making it suitable for safety-critical industrial applications.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlocking systems.
- Industrial automation and control panels.
- Conveyor and material handling equipment.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Directional position detection systems.
- OEM machinery and manufacturing environments.
