Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60AD5D2B-F21 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FG 60AD5D2B-F21 is a robust safety interlock switch with solenoid locking and separate actuator designed for controlled access and guard monitoring on industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato FG Series, it combines mechanical guard detection, electromagnetic locking and positive-opening contacts within a durable metal enclosure.
This model operates according to the D locking principle, meaning the actuator remains locked when the electromagnet is de-energised. Its IP67-rated metal housing and maximum holding force of 3000 N make it suitable for demanding machine safety applications where guards must remain securely locked during hazardous operating conditions.
The FG 60AD5D2B-F21 features a 230 V AC electromagnet supply, 1NO + 1NC actuator-operated contacts and 1NO + 1NC electromagnet-operated contacts. It also incorporates one green and one red LED that can be freely connected, an orientable head with key-operated auxiliary release, and the supplied VF KEYF21 angled actuator.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Safety interlock switches with guard locking are used where access to hazardous machine areas must remain restricted until safe conditions are achieved. When the separate actuator enters the switch head, the safety system can monitor guard position while the locking mechanism mechanically retains the actuator.
The FG 60AD5D2B-F21 combines de-energised-electromagnet locking with separate actuator and lock-monitoring contacts, positive-opening operation and a substantial holding force. Its orientable head, key-operated auxiliary release and angled actuator provide flexibility for machine doors and guards with different mounting arrangements.
Typical Applications
- Machine safety guards and access doors.
- Robotic cells and automated manufacturing systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Automated assembly equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Machine tools and production equipment.
- OEM machinery requiring secure guard locking.
