Why Choose the Pizzato MF45 Microswitch?

The Pizzato MF45 is a compact and highly reliable snap-action microswitch with short roller lever, designed for precise position detection and control in industrial automation systems. As part of the robust Pizzato MF series, it delivers consistent switching performance with excellent durability in demanding machine environments.

This model features a short roller lever actuator, providing smooth actuation with reduced mechanical wear. The roller design ensures reliable operation in cam-driven or sliding applications, making it ideal for repetitive motion systems where longevity and precision are essential.

With a SPDT (1 NO + 1 NC) contact configuration and fast snap-action switching mechanism, the MF45 ensures dependable electrical control across both AC and DC circuits, supporting a wide range of industrial automation applications.

Key Advantages

  • Compact snap-action microswitch for industrial automation.
  • Short roller lever actuator for smooth and precise actuation.
  • Reduced friction and wear compared to plunger designs.
  • SPDT contact configuration for flexible control circuits.
  • High mechanical durability for long service life.
  • Suitable for both AC and DC switching applications.

Key Features

  • Pizzato MF series microswitch.
  • Snap-action switching mechanism.
  • Short roller lever actuator for cam-driven movement.
  • 1 NO + 1 NC (SPDT changeover contact).
  • Faston terminals for secure and quick wiring.
  • Compact thermoplastic housing for industrial use.
  • High cycle life (approx. 10 million operations).

Reliable Roller Lever Switching for Industrial Control

The Pizzato MF45 uses a snap-action mechanism to deliver rapid and consistent switching performance, ensuring clean electrical transitions even under high-frequency operation. The short roller lever actuator minimises friction and improves durability, making it suitable for repetitive cam-driven movements and sliding contacts.

Its compact design allows easy integration into machinery while maintaining accurate switching points and long-term reliability in industrial environments.

Typical Applications

  • End-of-travel detection in industrial machinery.
  • Cam-driven automation systems.
  • Packaging and production equipment.
  • Conveyors and material handling systems.
  • Mechanical limit detection in moving assemblies.
  • OEM machine building and automation integration.
