Why Choose the Pizzato FR1476 Rope-Actuated Position Switch?
The Pizzato FR1476 is a durable and high-performance rope-operated position switch designed for industrial signalling and control across extended machine systems. As part of the reliable Pizzato FR series, it delivers precise switching performance where distributed actuation is required, such as conveyors and automated production lines.
This model features a rope actuation mechanism without reset, meaning it automatically returns to its normal state when the rope is released. This ensures consistent and repeatable switching behaviour, making it ideal for applications requiring dependable signalling across long distances.
Constructed with a reinforced technopolymer housing and offering IP67 and IP69K protection, the FR1476 is engineered to perform reliably in harsh industrial environments, including exposure to dust, moisture, and mechanical stress.
Key Advantages
- Reliable rope-operated position switch for industrial automation.
- Designed for extended actuation across machine lines.
- 2 NC contacts for safety and signalling applications.
- Automatic return operation without reset requirement.
- Durable construction suitable for demanding environments.
- Compact design for easy installation.
Key Features
- Pizzato FR series position switch.
- 2 NC slow-action contacts (shifted contacts, B14).
- Rope actuation head for remote triggering.
- PG13.5 conduit entry for cable installation.
- Technopolymer housing with reinforced structure.
- IP67 and IP69K protection rating according to EN 60529 and ISO 20653.
- Contacts inverted in rest position due to actuator design.
Reliable Rope-Actuated Control for Industrial Systems
The Pizzato FR1476 enables precise and repeatable signalling across extended machinery using rope actuation. When the rope is pulled, the internal mechanism activates the contacts, allowing operators or automated systems to control equipment from multiple positions along a production line.
A key feature of this model is that the actuator keeps the contact block activated in its rest position, meaning the normal contact states are inverted until actuation occurs. This design supports specialised control logic in industrial automation systems.
Typical Applications
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Industrial automation and control systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Position signalling across extended machine lines.
- OEM equipment and production systems.
- Distributed control applications using rope actuation.
