£36.88
The Pizzato FD 20R2-L05FM2 is a robust safety switch with manual mechanical delay and separate actuator designed for controlled access to hazardous areas of industrial machinery. Part of the proven Pizzato FD safety switch series, it combines mechanical guard monitoring with a manually operated delay mechanism, helping ensure that access to a protected area follows the required machine stopping procedure.
The FD 20R2 family uses a 1NO + 2NC slow-action contact arrangement with positive-opening safety contacts. The manual mechanical delay requires deliberate operator action before the actuator can be released, making this type of switch particularly useful where access to machinery should not be immediate after a stop command.
The FD 20R2-L05FM2 combines the FD series' rugged metal construction with IP67 protection and an M20 × 1.5 threaded cable entry. Its separate-actuator design is suitable for movable machine guards and access doors in production machinery, automated equipment and other demanding industrial safety installations.
Safety switches with manual mechanical delay are designed for applications where opening a protective guard should involve a deliberate sequence rather than immediate actuator release. The mechanical delay provides additional time between initiation of the release procedure and access to the protected machine area, making the arrangement useful for machinery with stopping processes that must be considered before entry.
The Pizzato FD 20R2-L05FM2 combines this function with separate-actuator guard monitoring and positive-opening safety contacts. Its rugged metal enclosure and IP67 protection make it well suited to industrial automation systems requiring durable mechanical safety interlocking without dependence on an electrically operated locking solenoid.

The FD 20R2-L05FM2 is designed for machine guard monitoring with manual mechanical delay, making it suitable for industrial machinery where controlled access to a protected area is required.
The FD 20R2 series uses a 1NO + 2NC slow-action contact arrangement, providing safety contacts together with an auxiliary normally open contact.
The manual mechanical delay requires a deliberate operating sequence before the separate actuator can be released, providing a controlled delay between initiating access and opening the machine guard.
Yes. The safety contact arrangement incorporates positive-opening operation to support dependable mechanical opening of the safety circuit.
The switch belongs to the rugged metal FD series and provides an IP67 protection rating according to EN 60529, making it suitable for demanding industrial installations.
Pizzato FD safety switches with manual mechanical delay provide machine builders and automation engineers with robust guard-monitoring solutions for machinery where deliberate, controlled access and dependable positive-opening safety contacts are required.
