Why Choose the Pizzato FC3384 Rope Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FC3384 is a heavy-duty rope-operated safety switch with reset function designed for emergency stop protection on conveyors, long production lines, and industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato FC series, it enables immediate machine shutdown from any point along a tensioned safety rope, ensuring maximum operator safety across extended industrial installations.
Built for demanding environments, the FC3384 features a rugged metal housing and a high IP67 protection rating, making it suitable for dust, moisture, and vibration-heavy conditions. The device is commonly used in large conveyor systems and automated production lines where a resettable safety switch is required for controlled restart procedures.
This model includes a manual reset function, meaning it remains latched after activation or rope break until it is intentionally reset. This prevents automatic restart and ensures compliance with modern machine safety standards such as EN ISO 13850.
Key Advantages
- Reliable rope pull emergency stop safety switch for industrial machinery.
- Emergency stop activation from any point along the rope length.

Reliable Rope Emergency Stop Protection
The FC3384 monitors tension in a safety rope installed along machinery or conveyor systems. When the rope is pulled or breaks, the internal switching mechanism immediately opens the safety contacts and triggers an emergency stop condition.
After activation, the switch remains latched until manually reset, ensuring the machine cannot restart until the fault condition has been safely cleared.
Typical Applications
- Conveyor belt systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Material handling systems.
- Industrial production lines.
- Warehouse automation systems.
- Perimeter safety protection systems.
