£6.03
The Pizzato MKH12D53 is a durable and high-performance industrial microswitch with long roller lever actuator, designed for accurate position detection and reliable switching in automation systems. As part of the proven Pizzato MK series, it is engineered for consistent performance and long service life in demanding industrial environments.
This model features a long roller lever (approximately 54 mm), providing extended reach and allowing earlier actuation across wider mechanical travel ranges. This makes it particularly suitable for machinery where tolerance, flexibility and early detection are essential.
With a 1 NO + 1 NC snap-action contact configuration, the MKH12D53 ensures fast and dependable switching. Its reinforced technopolymer housing offers excellent durability, while optional terminal covers enable protection ratings up to IP65 for use in more demanding environments.
The MKH12D53 is designed for applications where longer actuation distance is required. The extended roller lever allows early engagement with moving parts, improving detection accuracy while reducing mechanical stress on both the switch and interacting components.
Its snap-action switching mechanism ensures rapid electrical response with minimal contact bounce, enhancing reliability and reducing maintenance requirements in industrial automation systems.
