Why Choose the Pizzato MF52 Microswitch?
The Pizzato MF52 is a durable and precision-engineered snap-action microswitch with hinge lever, designed for reliable position detection and control in industrial automation systems. As part of the trusted Pizzato MF series, it delivers consistent switching performance and long service life in demanding environments.
This model features a hinge lever actuator, allowing smooth and flexible actuation across a wider mechanical range. This makes it particularly suitable for cam-driven systems, sliding mechanisms and applications where alignment tolerances vary.
With a SPDT (1 NO + 1 NC) contact configuration and snap-action switching mechanism, the MF52 provides fast and reliable electrical control in both AC and DC circuits. It is widely used in automation systems for end-of-travel detection and machine control.
Key Advantages
- Compact snap-action microswitch for industrial automation.
- Hinge lever actuator enables flexible and extended actuation.
- Smooth mechanical operation reduces wear and improves lifespan.
- SPDT contact configuration for versatile control circuits.
- High mechanical durability (approx. 10 million cycles).
- Suitable for both AC and DC switching applications.
Key Features
- Pizzato MF series microswitch.
- Snap-action switching mechanism.
- Hinge lever actuator for cam or sliding actuation.
- 1 NO + 1 NC (SPDT changeover contact).
- Faston terminals (6.3 × 0.8 mm) for secure connection.
- Compact technopolymer housing.
- High cycle life for industrial applications.
The Pizzato MF52 utilises a snap-action mechanism to deliver fast and repeatable switching, ensuring clean electrical transitions even under frequent operation. Its hinge lever actuator provides a wider actuation range and reduces mechanical stress on both the switch and the actuating components.
This design enhances durability and maintains precise switching points, making it suitable for continuous operation in automated machinery and industrial control systems.
