Why Choose the Pizzato FD 793-F2 Safety Switch with Separate Actuator?
The Pizzato FD 793-F2 is a robust safety switch with separate actuator designed for monitoring movable guards, safety doors and access panels on industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato FD series, it provides direct mechanical guard-position detection for integration into industrial machine-safety circuits.
The switch operates through a separate F2 actuator mounted on the movable guard. Closing the guard inserts the actuator into the switch head, while opening the guard withdraws it and mechanically changes the state of the safety contacts, allowing the associated safety control system to detect the open-guard condition.
The FD 793-F2 combines positive-opening safety contact operation with a rugged metal housing and IP67 protection. Its industrial construction makes it suitable for repeated guard-monitoring duties on packaging machinery, conveyors, automated equipment and other guarded production systems.

Dependable Mechanical Guard Monitoring
A separate-actuator safety switch monitors the physical position of a movable machine guard. The actuator is fixed to the guard and engages the switch head when the guard closes. Opening the guard withdraws the actuator and mechanically operates the switch contacts so that the safety control system can respond to access to the protected area.
The Pizzato FD 793-F2 combines this established guard-interlocking principle with positive-opening safety operation and durable FD-series construction. It provides a practical solution for industrial machinery requiring reliable detection of hinged, sliding or removable protective guards.
Typical Applications
- Hinged machine safety guards.
- Sliding safety doors and access panels.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material-handling systems.
- Automated manufacturing and assembly cells.
- Guarded industrial production equipment.
