Why Choose the Pizzato FD616 Position Switch?
The Pizzato FD616 is a heavy-duty industrial position / limit switch designed for precise and reliable detection of mechanical movement in demanding automation environments. Part of the proven Pizzato FD Series, it features a roller actuator with stainless steel piston plunger, delivering consistent actuation and long mechanical life under high-cycle industrial use.
Constructed with a robust metal housing, the FD616 is engineered to withstand harsh conditions such as vibration, dust, and moisture. Its slow-action contact mechanism ensures controlled switching behaviour, making it suitable for applications requiring stable and deliberate signal changes rather than rapid switching.
With IP67 protection, positive opening contacts, and a PG13.5 threaded conduit entry, this switch is designed for reliable operation in industrial environments. It is ideal for machinery, conveyors, and automation systems where accurate position detection and durability are essential.
