Why Choose the Pizzato NX B52CE1SMK-F61 RFID Safety Switch?
The Pizzato NX B52CE1SMK-F61 is a compact and robust RFID safety switch with guard locking designed for secure monitoring and controlled access to movable guards on industrial machinery. Part of the advanced Pizzato NX series, it combines high-level coded RFID actuator recognition, bistable guard locking and electronic safety outputs for demanding machine-safety and automation applications.
This configuration uses Mode 1 bistable operation, with the OS1 and OS2 safety outputs active when the actuator is inserted and locked. The B52 configuration also incorporates an EDM input for external device monitoring, while its three-sided hexagonal-key auxiliary release and rear escape-release button provide flexible controlled-release functionality for guarded machinery.
The NX B52CE1SMK-F61 is supplied with the VN NX-F61 high-level coded actuator and uses an axial 12-pole M12 connector for straightforward electrical integration. Its compact 30 × 30 × 94.5 mm construction combines a technopolymer housing with a metal head, while a maximum holding force of 6000 N, IP67 / IP69K protection and RGB LED status signalling support reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.

Reliable RFID Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
RFID safety switches such as the Pizzato NX series combine coded electronic actuator detection with mechanical guard locking. In Mode 1, the OS1 and OS2 safety outputs become active when the actuator is inserted and locked, allowing the machine safety system to verify the locked condition of the protective guard before hazardous operation is enabled.
The NX B52CE1SMK-F61 adds external device monitoring alongside flexible manual and escape-release functions, making it particularly suitable for sophisticated guarded machinery. Its high-level coded actuator, compact construction, high holding force and robust ingress protection provide a dependable solution for modern machine builders and automation engineers.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard doors and protective access panels.
- Industrial automation and robotic cells.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Automated production and assembly equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Guarded machine areas requiring an internal escape release.
- Machinery with hazardous residual movement after shutdown.
- High-integrity safety systems requiring RFID guard monitoring and locking.
