Why Choose the Pizzato NXB42AE1SMK RFID Safety Switch?

The Pizzato NXB42AE1SMK is an advanced NX series RFID safety switch with guard locking designed for reliable protection of industrial machinery, automation systems and safety guarding applications. Manufactured by Pizzato Elettrica, this compact safety interlock combines RFID-coded actuator technology, bistable solenoid locking and high-performance safety monitoring to help prevent access to hazardous machine areas while dangerous conditions remain present.

The NXB42AE1SMK uses advanced RFID actuator recognition technology to provide coded safety monitoring and protection against actuator tampering. The device activates its safety outputs only when the actuator is correctly inserted and locked, making it suitable for machine doors, guards and access protection systems where hazardous movement must be controlled.

Designed for demanding industrial environments, the Pizzato NXB42AE1SMK features two safety inputs, two safety outputs, signalling outputs for actuator status, a bistable locking solenoid and an M12 12-pole connector. Its compact design, IP67/IP69K protection and high safety performance make it ideal for modern machine safety applications.

Advanced RFID Guard Locking for Industrial Automation

The Pizzato NXB42AE1SMK provides reliable protection for machines where hazardous conditions may continue after power removal, such as rotating equipment, cutting systems and processing machinery. The guard remains locked until the required safety conditions are satisfied, helping prevent unintended access during dangerous operations.

The NX series combines compact dimensions with advanced safety electronics, allowing machine builders to achieve high safety levels while reducing installation space. Multiple NX devices can also be integrated into safety chains while maintaining high safety performance when correctly connected to suitable safety controllers.

Typical Applications

  • Machine guarding and access protection systems.
  • Industrial automation equipment.
  • Robotic cells and production lines.
  • Packaging and processing machinery.
  • Manufacturing equipment with hazardous movement.
  • Safety doors and protective covers.
