Position switches with reset are extremely versatile and suit many different application needs.

Pizzato Elettrica devices have been used for many years in the lift sector for their proven reliability and quality, thus becoming the first choice of some of the most important multinational players.

Installed all around the world in many different applications, Pizzato’s range of devices developed for the lift sector is vast and also involves custom versions to better meet the demands of customers.

Among the devices specifically developed for the industry of elevators, the range of position switches that are traditionally used in this sector is particularly wide and consists of: position switches with or without reset, signalling switches, microswitches for door operators and position switches with open design. The offer also includes door contacts and safety switches for door locking.
Let’s explore these devices in detail, focusing on position switches with reset.

Available both with manual or with electrical reset, these devices are fully compliant with EN 81-20 and EN 81-50 standards, just like all the devices developed by Pizzato Elettrica and dedicated to the lift industry.

Position switches with manual reset boast an innovative reset device which ensures that, when activating the switch, the electrical contacts trip and the reset system latches simultaneously. As a result, snap action contact blocks are no longer required, and problems resulting from delays between the reset button latching and contacts opening are avoided.

The reset device can be turned independently of the above actuator, making positioning of the product incredibly flexible. Extracting the blue button resets the device – as laid down in the standards – to prevent unintentional reset.

These devices are designed to be used under the toughest environmental conditions and reach IP67 and IP69K protection degrees. Besides, they can be delivered with increased actuating force to face vibration applications.

Switches with manual reset are also available in a version designed specifically for speed limiters requiring high sensitivity and a low actuating force. These devices reach IP67 degree of protectione.

On the other side, position switches with electrical reset retain their switching state when operated: their reset occurs electrically through the integrated solenoid. Thanks to this special feature, the switch can be remotely reset without having to go physically near it.

Available with multiple actuators, they are able to adapt to a wide variety of applications and reach IP67 degree of protection. Besides, they can be supplied with reduced actuating force on request.

These devices are supplied with a new system for the adjustment of the switching point, which allows very fine and sensitive adjustment of the switch position along the vertical axis.

Just like all the devices provided by Pizzato Elettrica, position switches with reset are extremely versatile and suit many different application needs. As a matter of fact, they are able to adapt to all situations thanks totheir flexible features, such as their head with variable orientation, adjustable levers, reversible levers and cable outlets with various directions, for use in the most confined of spaces.

Pizzato Elettrica is one of the leading European manufacturers of position switches, microswitches, safety devices, safety modules, foot switches, control and signalling devices, and devices for elevators. An entrepreneurial company such as Pizzato Elettrica bases its foundations on a solid and widely shared value system. The pillars that form the basis of the company’s work have remained constant, and constitute the fundamental guiding principles for all company activities.

All Pizzato Elettrica products are designed, developed, and tested entirely at the company's plants in Marostica, in the province of Vicenza in Italy.
