Why Choose the Pizzato FD705 Position Limit Switch?

The Pizzato FD705 is a heavy-duty industrial position limit switch designed for precise and reliable detection of mechanical movement in demanding automation environments. As part of the rugged Pizzato FD series, it features an angled one-way roller lever actuator, ensuring accurate directional actuation for controlled machine positioning.

Constructed with a durable metal housing, the FD705 is built for long-term reliability in harsh industrial conditions. It incorporates a slow-action contact system with 1 normally open (NO) and 1 normally closed (NC) contact, offering stable and dependable switching for control and safety applications.

With a PG13.5 threaded conduit entry, IP67 protection rating and operating temperature range of approximately -25 °C to +80 °C, the FD705 ensures consistent performance in environments exposed to dust, moisture and vibration.

Key Advantages

  • Heavy-duty limit switch for industrial automation.
  • Angled one-way roller lever actuator for precise directional detection.
  • Robust metal housing for harsh industrial environments.
  • 1 NO + 1 NC contact configuration for versatile integration.
  • Slow-action switching ensures stable and reliable performance.
  • IP67 protection against dust and water ingress.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FD series position switch.
  • Angled one-way roller lever actuator.
  • Slow-action contact block (1 NO + 1 NC).
  • Positive opening contacts for safety compliance.
  • Silver contacts for reliable electrical conductivity.
  • Single conduit entry PG13.5.
  • Designed for long service life in industrial machinery.

Accurate Directional Detection for Industrial Systems

The FD705 is designed to detect movement in a specific direction using its angled one-way roller lever. This prevents unintended actuation and ensures switching occurs only when movement follows the intended mechanical path, improving reliability and process control.

Its slow-action switching mechanism provides consistent electrical contact behaviour, making it ideal for applications requiring stable signals and dependable long-term performance.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial automation and control systems.
  • Machine guarding and safety interlocks.
