£11.82
The Pizzato FX1538 is a heavy-duty industrial position limit switch engineered for accurate detection of rotary movement and end-of-travel conditions in automation systems. As part of the reliable Pizzato FX series, it delivers consistent switching performance and long service life in demanding industrial environments.
This model is designed for use with rotating lever actuators, allowing flexible integration with cams, shafts and mechanical linkages. Its modular design enables engineers to adapt the switch to a wide range of machinery applications requiring precise position feedback.
Featuring 2 normally open (NO) slow-action contacts with shifted switching, the FX1538 is ideal for control and signalling circuits. The robust technopolymer housing and dual PG13.5 conduit entries ensure durability and reliable installation in industrial environments.
Position switches such as the Pizzato FX1538 are essential components in industrial automation systems, particularly where rotary movement or lever-based actuation is required. They detect motion, end-of-travel conditions and machine states, enabling safe operation and efficient process control.
The shifted contact design allows sequential switching within a single device, enabling more advanced control logic and improved system flexibility in automation applications.
