Why Choose the Pizzato FD651-M2R24 Position Switch?
The Pizzato FD651-M2R24 is a robust industrial position switch with a swivelling roller lever, designed for reliable mechanical position detection in machinery and automation systems. Part of the heavy-duty Pizzato FD series, it combines a durable metal housing with a compact swivelling head and roller lever for dependable operation in demanding industrial environments.
The FD651-M2R24 features a 1NO + 1NC slow-action contact block, providing controlled and predictable switching as the roller lever is mechanically actuated. The roller lever arrangement is particularly suitable for detecting moving machine components, cams, doors and mechanisms where smooth rolling contact helps minimise friction and actuator wear.
With a stainless-steel roller, metal housing and IP67 protection rating, the FD651-M2R24 is engineered for long-term industrial service. A single M20 × 1.5 threaded conduit entry provides a conventional cable connection, while the FD series is designed for operation across an ambient temperature range of -25 °C to +80 °C.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery
Position switches such as the Pizzato FD651-M2R24 convert physical movement into an electrical switching signal, allowing machinery control systems to identify when a component has reached a predetermined position. As a moving part contacts the roller lever, the swivelling head operates the internal contacts to provide reliable position feedback to the associated control circuit.
The stainless-steel roller helps provide smooth mechanical engagement with cams and moving components, while the slow-action contact block delivers controlled switching behaviour. Combined with the FD series metal enclosure and IP67 environmental protection, the FD651-M2R24 is well suited to repeated operation within industrial production and automation equipment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery position monitoring.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Automated production and assembly equipment.
- Machine travel and end-position detection.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Cam-operated position sensing applications.
