Why Choose the Pizzato FR2231-W3 Safety Limit Switch?

The Pizzato FR2231-W3 is a robust safety limit switch with manual reset designed for precise position detection and controlled restart in industrial automation systems. As part of the reliable Pizzato FR series, it is engineered for safety-critical applications where dependable switching and operator intervention are essential.

This model features a roller lever actuator, ensuring smooth and repeatable actuation when interacting with moving machine components. It includes a 2 NO + 1 NC contact configuration with positive opening functionality, allowing safe circuit interruption even under fault conditions.

The integrated simultaneous manual reset mechanism ensures that the switch must be deliberately reset after activation, preventing unintended machine restart. With a durable technopolymer housing and PG13.5 conduit entry, the FR2231-W3 provides excellent resistance to mechanical stress, dust and moisture in demanding industrial environments.
