Why Choose the Pizzato NX P31AZ1SMK-F60 RFID Safety Switch?
The Pizzato NX P31AZ1SMK-F60 is a compact and robust RFID safety switch with guard locking designed for monitoring movable guards, doors and access points on industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato NX Series, it combines contactless RFID actuator detection with a powerful locking mechanism to provide dependable machine safety in applications where access must be controlled.
This NX Series switch uses a bistable solenoid operating principle and provides two safety inputs IS1 and IS2 together with two safety outputs OS1 and OS2. Dedicated signalling outputs indicate when the actuator is inserted and when it is locked, while separate solenoid activation inputs support integration into industrial safety and automation control systems.
The NX P31AZ1SMK-F60 is supplied with the VN NX-F60 low-level coded RFID actuator and features a 12-pole M12 connector for convenient machine wiring. A maximum locked-actuator holding force of 6000 N, IP67 protection and IP69K protection according to ISO 20653 make the switch particularly suitable for demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
RFID safety switches with guard locking are used where machinery must detect the position of a protective guard while also controlling when that guard can be opened. The Pizzato NX Series combines contactless RFID actuator recognition with an integrated locking system, making it suitable for machinery where hazardous movement, temperature, pressure or mechanical inertia may remain after a stop command has been issued.
The NX P31AZ1SMK-F60 provides separate safety, signalling and solenoid-control connections to support integration with modern machine safety architectures. Its compact construction, strong actuator retention and high environmental protection make it particularly useful where installation space is limited but reliable guard monitoring and locking are essential.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard and access-door interlocking.
- Automated production and assembly machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Robotic cells and automated manufacturing systems.
- Machinery with hazardous run-down or mechanical inertia.
- Industrial equipment requiring controlled access to hazardous areas.
