Why Choose the Pizzato FX2276 Rope Actuated Limit Switch?
The Pizzato FX2276 is a durable and highly reliable rope-actuated position switch designed for industrial signalling and safety-related position monitoring. As part of the robust Pizzato FX series, this device is engineered for applications requiring dependable mechanical actuation across extended machine or conveyor systems.
Featuring a strong technopolymer housing and precision mechanical contacts, the FX2276 ensures consistent switching performance even in harsh industrial environments. Its rope actuation mechanism allows triggering from multiple positions, making it ideal for long machinery lines and distributed safety systems.
With a 2NO + 1NC slow-action contact configuration, high ingress protection, and a wide operating temperature range, the FX2276 provides reliable signalling for automation systems, helping engineers maintain safe and efficient operation.

Reliable Rope Actuation for Industrial Systems
Rope-actuated limit switches such as the FX2276 are widely used in industrial automation where activation is required over a distance. By pulling the rope, operators or mechanical movement can trigger the switch, providing flexible control or signalling across large machines and conveyor systems.
The combination of normally open and normally closed contacts allows integration into various control and signalling circuits, making it suitable for both monitoring and safety-related functions.
Typical Applications
Conveyor systems and material handling lines.
Industrial automation and machine control.
Position monitoring in large equipment.
Packaging and production machinery.
Distributed control and signalling systems.
General industrial safety and monitoring applications.
