Why Choose the Pizzato FR254-M2R26 Position Switch?
The Pizzato FR254-M2R26 is a robust industrial position switch with rotary roller lever designed for reliable mechanical position and movement detection on machinery, conveyors and automated equipment. As part of the versatile Pizzato FR series, it combines a durable technopolymer enclosure with a rotary lever and large rubber roller for dependable operation in industrial automation applications.
The FR254-M2R26 incorporates a B2 contact block with 2 × (1NO + 1NC) snap-action contacts, providing a total of two normally open and two normally closed contacts. The snap-action mechanism delivers rapid and repeatable electrical switching when the lever is actuated, making the device suitable for machine sequencing, travel detection and general position-monitoring circuits.
The switch features a rotary lever with a 50 mm diameter rubber roller, allowing smooth mechanical engagement with cams, carriages, conveyors and other moving machine components. Its technopolymer enclosure includes a threaded M20 × 1.5 cable entry and provides IP67 and IP69K environmental protection, making the FR254-M2R26 suitable for demanding industrial installations.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery
Electromechanical position switches such as the Pizzato FR254-M2R26 detect the physical position or movement of machine components through direct mechanical actuation. When a cam, carriage or other moving component engages the rubber roller, the rotary lever operates the B2 snap-action mechanism and rapidly changes the state of the two normally open and two normally closed contacts.
The large rubber roller provides a practical interface with moving machinery while the FR series technopolymer enclosure protects the internal switching mechanism. Its combination of four contacts, IP67/IP69K protection and robust mechanical actuation makes the FR254-M2R26 suitable for machine sequencing, travel monitoring and general industrial automation.
