Why Choose the Pizzato FR 552-M1R24 Position Switch?
The Pizzato FR 552-M1R24 is a robust industrial position switch with roller lever, designed for reliable mechanical position and movement detection in machinery and automation systems. As part of the established Pizzato FR position switch series, it combines a durable technopolymer housing with a zinc-plated steel roller lever mechanism for dependable operation in demanding industrial applications.
The roller lever actuator provides smooth mechanical operation when contacted by moving machine components, making the FR 552-M1R24 particularly suitable for repeated position sensing. Its 20 mm stainless steel roller provides a durable rolling contact surface, while the snap-action switching mechanism ensures a positive and repeatable electrical response for machine control and signalling circuits.
The FR 552-M1R24 incorporates 1NO+1NC snap-action contacts with silver contact surfaces and a single M16 × 1.5 conduit entry. Its compact technopolymer enclosure and industrial construction make it suitable for conveyors, production equipment, handling systems and OEM machinery requiring dependable electromechanical position feedback.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery
Position switches such as the Pizzato FR 552-M1R24 provide an electromechanical switching signal when a moving machine component operates the roller lever. This enables industrial control systems to detect component positions, monitor travel limits and initiate control functions at predetermined points during a machine operating cycle.
The stainless steel roller provides a rolling contact surface for the actuating component, reducing sliding contact during repeated operation. Combined with the snap-action 1NO+1NC contact mechanism, this makes the FR 552-M1R24 well suited to conveyors, material handling equipment, packaging machinery and automated production systems requiring repeatable mechanical position feedback.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery position detection.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- End-of-travel and movement monitoring.
- Automated manufacturing equipment.
