Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60CD7E0Z-LP30 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FG 60CD7E0Z-LP30 is an FG series safety switch with separate actuator and solenoid guard locking, designed for monitoring and securing movable guards, doors and access points on industrial machinery. It combines positive-opening guard detection with controlled electromagnetic locking for machinery safety applications where access to hazardous areas must be managed.
This configuration uses principle E operation, with the actuator locked when the electromagnet is energised. The robust metal housing provides IP67 protection and features three M20 × 1.5 threaded cable entries, making the switch suitable for demanding machine-building and industrial automation environments.
The FG 60CD7E0Z family operates from a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and uses 1NC actuator-operated contact plus 3NC solenoid-operated contacts. It also incorporates positive-opening operation and a rotating head with panic release, while the LP30 variant provides the corresponding extended release configuration for the guard installation.

Controlled Guard Locking and Escape Release
Solenoid-locking safety switches combine movable-guard position detection with mechanical retention of a separate actuator. The principle E arrangement used by the FG 60CD7E0Z family locks the actuator when the electromagnet is energised, allowing guard retention to be controlled by the machinery safety and control system.
Dedicated actuator and electromagnet contacts enable monitoring of both guard position and locking status. Combined with positive-opening operation, an IP67 metal enclosure and the panic-release arrangement, the FG 60CD7E0Z-LP30 provides a robust solution for guarded machinery and enclosed automation systems where controlled access and an escape-release facility are required.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard doors and access gates.
- Robotic cells and enclosed automation systems.
- Automated manufacturing and assembly machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Machine tools and production equipment.
- Guarded machinery requiring an internal panic-release facility.
