Why Choose the Pizzato FME120 Position Switch?

The Pizzato FME120 is an advanced industrial position switch with electronic output, designed for precise and reliable detection in modern automation systems. As part of the Pizzato FM series, it features a coil spring actuator with plastic tip, allowing flexible actuation and consistent performance in demanding industrial environments.

Unlike traditional electromechanical switches, the FME120 incorporates a PNP electronic output, enabling faster switching, reduced wear, and improved reliability in high-cycle applications. Its robust metal housing ensures durability even in harsh industrial conditions.

With a 1 normally open (NO) and 1 normally closed (NC) electronic configuration and PG13.5 cable entry, this switch is ideal for integration into automation systems requiring precise signal control and long service life.

Key Advantages

  • Advanced electronic position switch for modern automation systems.
  • PNP electronic output for fast, wear-free switching.
  • Coil spring actuator with plastic tip for flexible multi-directional actuation.
  • 1 NO + 1 NC configuration for versatile control applications.
  • Metal housing ensures durability in harsh environments.
  • IP67 protection rating for resistance to dust and water.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FM series electronic position switch.
  • PNP electronic output (non-contact switching).
  • Coil spring actuator with plastic point.
  • 1 NO + 1 NC electronic outputs.
  • PG13.5 threaded conduit entry.
  • Metal housing construction.
  • IP67 rated enclosure according to EN 60529.
  • No reset mechanism for standard switching applications.

Electronic Switching for High-Duty Automation

Electronic position switches such as the FME120 offer significant advantages over traditional mechanical contacts. With no physical contact wear, they provide longer service life, higher switching frequency, and improved reliability in continuous operation environments.

The flexible coil spring actuator allows activation from multiple directions, making the FME120 suitable for dynamic machinery where alignment and movement paths vary.

Typical Applications

  • High-cycle industrial automation systems.
  • Conveyor and material handling equipment.
  • Packaging and production machinery.
  • Precision position detection in automated systems.
  • OEM machine building and control panels.
  • Applications requiring long-life switching with minimal maintenance.
