Why Choose the Pizzato FZ2151 Position Switch?

The Pizzato FZ2151 is a robust industrial position switch with swivelling roller lever designed for reliable position, limit and movement detection in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Pizzato FZ series, it combines a durable metal housing with a central technopolymer roller lever and three normally closed contacts for dependable machine control and safety-related monitoring.

This position switch features a 3NC slow-action contact configuration (B21), providing three normally closed contacts for applications requiring multiple switching signals. Positive-opening operation ensures direct mechanical opening of the relevant contacts, making the FZ2151 suitable for safety functions when correctly incorporated into an appropriately designed machine safety system.

The FZ2151 uses a swivelling lever with a central 20 mm diameter technopolymer roller, providing smooth mechanical actuation as moving machine components contact the roller. Its IP67-rated metal housing and two PG 13.5 threaded cable entries provide a durable solution for demanding industrial machinery installations.

Key Advantages

  • Industrial position switch with swivelling roller lever.
  • 3NC slow-action contacts for machine control and monitoring.

  • Robust metal housing for demanding industrial environments.
  • IP67 protection against dust and temporary water immersion.
  • Two PG 13.5 threaded cable entries for electrical installation.
  • Suitable for position, travel and limit detection on industrial machinery.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FZ series position switch.
  • Swivelling lever actuator with central roller.
  • 20 mm diameter technopolymer roller.
  • 3 normally closed contacts.
  • B21 slow-action contact block.
  • Positive-opening contacts.

  • Durable painted metal switch housing.
  • Two threaded PG 13.5 cable entries.
  • Designed for industrial machinery, automation and safety-related applications.

Reliable Position Detection for Industrial Machinery

Position switches such as the Pizzato FZ2151 provide electromechanical detection of the movement or position of machine components. Movement against the roller lever operates the internal slow-action contacts, allowing a machine control or safety system to detect positions, travel limits and mechanical states reliably.

The swivelling lever and central technopolymer roller make the FZ2151 particularly suitable where moving machine components pass across the actuator. The roller reduces sliding contact during operation, while the B21 slow-action contact block, positive-opening functionality and robust IP67 metal enclosure provide dependable performance for industrial machinery and automation installations.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machinery position detection.
  • Machine guard and access monitoring systems.
  • Mechanical travel and end-position detection.
  • Conveyors and material handling systems.
  • Packaging and production machinery.
  • Automated manufacturing equipment.
  • Machine tools and processing equipment.
  • OEM machinery and industrial control systems.
