Why Choose the Pizzato FD731 Position Limit Switch?

The Pizzato FD731 is a heavy-duty position limit switch with roller lever, engineered for accurate motion detection and reliable switching in industrial automation systems. As part of the robust Pizzato FD series, it is designed to deliver consistent performance, durability and precision in demanding environments.

Constructed with a rugged metal housing, the FD731 provides excellent resistance to vibration, mechanical stress, dust and moisture. Its short technopolymer roller lever actuator ensures precise detection of lateral and rotational movement, making it ideal for continuous-duty machinery and repetitive industrial processes.

This model features a 1 normally open (NO) and 1 normally closed (NC) slow-action contact configuration with make-before-break switching, delivering stable and reliable signal transitions. The PG13.5 threaded conduit entry allows straightforward integration into standard industrial wiring systems.

Key Advantages

  • Heavy-duty metal housing for harsh industrial environments.
  • Roller lever actuator for accurate and flexible motion detection.
  • 1 NO + 1 NC slow-action contacts for reliable switching.
  • Make-before-break operation for stable signal continuity.
  • High mechanical durability for continuous operation.
  • Compact design for easy integration into machinery.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FD series position switch.
  • Short technopolymer roller lever actuator.
  • 1 NO + 1 NC slow-action contact block.
  • Make-before-break switching function.
  • Metal housing with industrial-grade protection.
  • PG13.5 threaded conduit entry.
  • Silver contacts for stable electrical performance.
  • IP67 protection rating for dust and water resistance.

Reliable Motion Detection for Industrial Machinery

The FD731 is designed to deliver accurate and repeatable position feedback in industrial machinery. Its roller lever actuator ensures smooth detection of moving components, making it ideal for applications involving continuous or repetitive motion.
