Why Choose the Pizzato FR 550-L21K21 Position Switch?

The Pizzato FR 550-L21K21 is a robust industrial position switch with an adjustable round rod lever, designed for reliable mechanical position detection in machinery and automation systems. As part of the Pizzato FR series, it combines a durable technopolymer housing with a versatile rotating lever mechanism for dependable operation in demanding industrial applications.

The adjustable round rod lever provides flexibility when setting the actuation point, making the FR 550-L21K21 particularly suitable for machinery where the position or path of the moving component requires an extended or adjustable actuator. The rotating operating head converts mechanical movement into a reliable switching signal for industrial control systems.

The FR series features a technopolymer housing with one cable entry and IP67 protection, providing resistance to dust and temporary water immersion. The series supports a wide range of contact blocks and actuator configurations, making the FR 550-L21K21 a versatile solution for machine builders, control engineers and industrial automation applications.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery

Position switches such as the Pizzato FR 550-L21K21 provide an electromechanical switching signal when a moving machine component operates the actuator. This enables control systems to detect component positions, monitor travel limits and initiate machine functions at predetermined points during an operating cycle.

The adjustable round rod lever is particularly useful where a longer actuation reach or flexible switching position is required. Its position can be configured to suit the geometry of the machinery, helping machine builders achieve reliable mechanical detection across conveyors, handling systems, production equipment and other automated installations.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery position detection.
  • Conveyor and material handling systems.
  • Packaging and production machinery.
  • End-of-travel and movement monitoring.
  • Automated manufacturing equipment.
  • Mechanical handling and processing machinery.
  • OEM machine building and industrial automation systems.
