As one of the widest lines of position switches in the world and one of the most technologically evolved, Pizzato Elettrica range of position switches offers a complete selection of reliable, high-quality devices, daily installed in every type of industrial machinery.

Thanks to the huge number of configurations available, these products are suitable for applications in all sectors, thus becoming the first choice of some of the most important international players.

In order to meet all customers’ needs, the variety of position switches offered by the company is remarkably wide and includes some particular versions for applications in potentially explosive atmospheres, as well as for installation in environments where temperatures are extremely high.

The ATEX Directive classifies two types of potentially explosive atmospheres, depending on the presence of combustible gases or dusts in the zone. These two types of explosive atmospheres are in turn classified into three zones each, according to frequency and duration. The equipment suitable for this kind of environment is classified into specific groups and categories as well, based on the required protection level; the responsibility to identify and classify the different zones and to install appropriate equipment lies with the machinery manufacturer or the end user.

Pizzato Elettrica ATEX-compliant range of position switches consists of devices specifically conceived to meet the requirements outlined in the relevant Directive; the product code of each article makes it possible to easily determine which zone, group and category the device is designed for.

The company also offers further special versions of position switches, expressly developed to be installed in environments reaching extremely high temperatures: some limit switches and microswitches for temperatures up to +180°C, as well as some different series of microswitches achieving up to +120°C.
