Precise Position Detection for Industrial Automation

Limit switches such as the Pizzato FR11A1 are used to detect the position of moving components within machinery. When the plunger is actuated, the internal contacts change state, allowing control systems to monitor movement, trigger operations or safely stop equipment where required.

The FR series is widely used in industrial automation thanks to its reliability, compact design and versatility. Its plunger actuator makes it particularly suitable for applications requiring accurate linear actuation and repeatable switching performance.

Typical Applications

  • Position detection in industrial machinery.
  • End-of-travel monitoring for moving components.
  • Packaging and processing equipment.
  • Conveyor systems and material handling.
  • General automation and control systems.
