Why Choose the Pizzato MS57 Micro Limit Switch?

The Pizzato MS57 is a reliable and industrial-grade micro limit switch with one-way roller lever actuator, designed for accurate and controlled position detection in automation systems. As part of the established Pizzato MS series, it combines snap-action switching with directional actuation, ensuring precise triggering in applications with defined movement paths.

The one-way roller lever is engineered to actuate in a single direction only, preventing unwanted reverse triggering and improving system accuracy. Constructed with a durable technopolymer housing and high-quality internal contacts, the MS57 delivers long operational life and dependable performance in demanding industrial environments.

With compact dimensions and solder terminal connections, the Pizzato MS57 microswitch integrates easily into machinery, conveyors and control panels, providing consistent and repeatable switching for industrial control and signalling tasks.

Key Advantages

  • One-way roller lever actuator ensures controlled directional switching.
  • Prevents reverse actuation for improved system reliability.
  • Snap-action switching provides fast and precise response.
  • High durability for repetitive industrial applications.
  • Compact design for easy integration into machinery.
  • Reliable performance in demanding automation environments.

Key Features

  • Pizzato MS series microswitch.
  • One-way roller lever actuator.
  • SPDT contact configuration (1 NO + 1 NC).
  • Snap-action changeover contacts.
  • Rated up to 16 A at 250 V AC.
  • Supports 6 A at 24 V DC.
  • Solder terminals for secure electrical connection.

Directional Switching for Controlled Motion

The Pizzato MS57 is designed with a one-way roller lever, enabling actuation in a single direction only. This prevents unintended switching during reverse motion and ensures consistent, accurate detection in conveyor systems and guided mechanical movements.

Its snap-action mechanism delivers rapid switching and minimal contact wear, while the SPDT configuration allows flexible integration into industrial control circuits. The MS57 is widely used in automation systems where precise, directional position detection is required.

Typical Applications

  • Position detection in industrial machinery.
  • Conveyor systems with defined motion direction.
  • Automation and control panels.
  • Packaging and production equipment.
  • Machine safety and interlocking systems.
  • OEM machinery and custom-built equipment.
