Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60DD1E1Z-F28 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FG 60DD1E1Z-F28 is a robust safety interlock switch with separate actuator and solenoid lock designed for monitoring and locking movable guards, access doors and protective barriers on industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato FG series, it combines mechanical guard locking with slow-action, positive-opening safety contacts for dependable machine safety and controlled access.
This model uses the E working principle, meaning the actuator is mechanically locked when the solenoid is energised. Its dedicated actuator and solenoid contacts allow the machine safety system to monitor both guard position and lock status, while the rotating head provides flexibility when integrating the switch into different machine-guarding arrangements.
The FG 60DD1E1Z-F28 operates from a 120 V AC/DC solenoid supply and provides 2NC contacts operated by the actuator plus 1NO+1NC contacts operated by the solenoid. The F28 version is supplied with the VF KEYF28 universal actuator, while its IP67 metal housing, three M20 × 1.5 cable entries and positive-opening operation make it well suited to demanding industrial machinery.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Safety interlock switches with solenoid locking enable machinery control systems to monitor the position of protective guards while controlling whether the separate actuator is mechanically retained. Independent actuator and solenoid contacts provide feedback about both guard position and locking status, helping the machine safety system determine when operation or access can be permitted.
The FG 60DD1E1Z-F28 combines energised-solenoid locking with positive-opening contacts, robust metal construction and a universal actuator. Its 3000 N locking force, IP67 enclosure and versatile actuator arrangement make it suitable for machinery requiring secure guard retention and dependable integration with industrial safety circuits.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine guards and access doors.
- Robotic cells and automated manufacturing systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Automated production and assembly equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling installations.
- Machine tools and guarded manufacturing equipment.
