Why Choose the Pizzato FP 231-M2R26 Position Switch?
The Pizzato FP 231-M2R26 is a robust industrial position switch with rotary roller lever designed for reliable position detection, end-of-travel monitoring and machine control in industrial automation systems. As part of the established Pizzato FP position switch series, it combines a durable technopolymer housing with dependable snap-action switching for machinery, production equipment and automated installations.
This position switch features a rotary lever with a 50 mm diameter rubber roller, providing effective mechanical engagement with cams, carriages and other moving machine components. Its B2 snap-action contact block provides two independent 1 NO + 1 NC contact sets, giving a total configuration of 2 NO + 2 NC for flexible control, signalling and position-monitoring circuits.
The FP 231-M2R26 incorporates a durable technopolymer enclosure, a single M20 × 1.5 threaded cable entry and an IP67 protection rating according to EN 60529. This combination makes it suitable for demanding industrial environments where reliable mechanical switching and protection against dust and water ingress are required.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery
Position switches such as the Pizzato FP 231-M2R26 convert mechanical movement into electrical switching signals, allowing a machine control system to determine when a component has reached a predetermined position or travel limit. When a cam, carriage or other moving mechanism engages the 50 mm rubber roller, the rotary lever operates the internal snap-action contact block and changes the state of the connected control circuits.
The Pizzato FP series is designed for industrial automation applications requiring dependable mechanical operation, compact construction and environmental protection. The combination of a rotary roller lever, four-contact snap-action arrangement, technopolymer enclosure and IP67 protection makes the FP 231-M2R26 suitable for position monitoring across production machinery, conveyors and automated systems.
