The Pizzato FG 60GD6D2A-LP40 is a heavy-duty FG Series safety interlock switch with separate actuator and solenoid guard locking, designed for monitoring and securing protective guards, doors and access points on industrial machinery. Its guard-locking architecture enables a safety control system to monitor both actuator position and locking status before hazardous machine operation is permitted.
Designed for demanding industrial installations, the FG 60GD6D2A-LP40 features a rugged metal housing, IP67 protection and three M20 × 1.5 cable entries. The FG Series also provides an orientable head and release devices, allowing the assembly to be configured to suit different guard arrangements while retaining a strong mechanical locking function.
This model uses the D6D operating principle, with the actuator locked when the solenoid is de-energised, together with auxiliary key release and an escape release pushbutton. The LP40 configuration provides an extended escape release button suitable for installations through walls with a thickness of 30 to 40 mm, making the switch particularly useful on guarded cells and enclosed machinery where emergency egress from inside the protected area is required.
Guard-locking safety switches are used where access to hazardous machinery must remain restricted until the machine safety system permits entry. The Pizzato FG Series combines separate-actuator guard position monitoring with solenoid-controlled mechanical locking, enabling the safety circuit to verify both guard position and lock status while providing robust physical retention of the guard.
The FG 60GD6D2A-LP40 is particularly suited to enclosed machinery and guarded cells because its D6D configuration incorporates auxiliary release and escape release functionality. The LP40 extended pushbutton allows the escape release to pass through a wall between 30 and 40 mm thick, giving personnel inside the protected area a dedicated means of mechanically releasing the guard-locking mechanism when required.

The FG 60GD6D2A-LP40 is used to monitor and lock protective guards and safety doors on industrial machinery while providing auxiliary and escape release functionality for controlled access and emergency egress.
The switch uses the D6D operating principle, meaning the actuator is locked while the guard-locking solenoid is de-energised.
The switch uses the Pizzato 60G contact block, providing 2NC contacts operated by the actuator and 2NC contacts operated by the solenoid for guard and locking status monitoring.
The LP40 suffix identifies the extended escape release pushbutton intended for installations through walls with a thickness from 30 to 40 mm.
Yes. The D6D configuration provides an auxiliary key release together with an escape release pushbutton, making it suitable for guarded machinery where both authorised unlocking and emergency egress are required.
Pizzato FG Series safety switches provide dependable guard monitoring and solenoid locking for industrial machinery, combining positive-opening safety contacts, robust metal construction and configurable release functions for demanding machine safety and guarded automation applications.
