FL 1878-E7M2T6 Pizzato Rope safety switch with reset for emergency stop
Pizzato FL1878-E7M2T6 is an FL series rope safety switch with manual reset, 1NO + 1NC slow-action positive-opening contacts and robust metal construction for emergency-stop applications on industrial machinery.
Why Choose the Pizzato FL1878-E7M2T6 Rope Safety Switch with Reset?
The Pizzato FL1878-E7M2T6 is an industrial rope safety switch with reset for emergency stop applications, designed to provide emergency-stop actuation along extended sections of machinery where conventional pushbuttons alone may not provide convenient access. Part of the Pizzato FL series, it enables personnel to initiate a safety stop by operating a tensioned rope connected to the switch.
The FL1878-E7M2T6 is based on the proven FL1878 rope safety switch platform, featuring a robust metal housing and a rope-operated emergency-stop head with manual reset. The FL1878 platform incorporates a 1NO + 1NC slow-action contact block with positive-opening functionality, providing dependable switching for safety-related machine control circuits.
Designed for demanding industrial installations, the FL series metal housing provides IP67 protection and three M20 × 1.5 threaded conduit entries. The rope-operated arrangement makes this switch particularly useful on conveyors, production lines and other elongated machinery where an emergency-stop command needs to be accessible from multiple positions along the protected area.

Integrated manual reset mechanism.
1NO + 1NC slow-action contact block.
Positive-opening safety contact operation.
Robust metal enclosure.
Three M20 × 1.5 threaded conduit entries.
IP67 protection according to EN 60529.
Designed for emergency-stop circuits on industrial machinery.
Suitable for extended machinery where emergency-stop access is required along a working area.
Accessible Emergency Stop Along Extended Machinery
Rope-operated emergency-stop switches provide an effective way to extend emergency-stop access along conveyors, production lines and other machinery with long or difficult-to-access operating areas. A correctly installed and tensioned rope allows an operator to actuate the safety switch from different positions along the protected section rather than having to reach a single fixed emergency-stop pushbutton.
The Pizzato FL1878 platform combines this rope-operated principle with a manual reset mechanism and positive-opening contact operation. Following emergency actuation, the cause of the stop can be investigated and the switch deliberately reset as part of the machine's defined restart procedure, helping support controlled restoration of operation.
Typical Applications
Conveyor emergency-stop systems.
Material handling and logistics equipment.
Packaging and processing lines.
Automated manufacturing systems.
Assembly and production lines.
Long industrial machines requiring distributed emergency-stop access.
Machinery where operators require emergency-stop access from multiple working positions.
