The Pizzato FR 693-DM1 is a robust safety switch with separate actuator designed for monitoring movable guards, safety doors and protective access points on industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato FR Series, it provides dependable electromechanical guard monitoring for machine safety, manufacturing equipment and industrial automation systems.
The FR 693-DM1 features a 1 NO + 1 NC slow-action (B6) contact configuration with positive-opening operation for safety-related applications. Its straight separate actuator mechanically operates the switch when the guard is correctly positioned, allowing the associated safety circuit to detect when the guard is opened and the actuator is withdrawn.
A durable technopolymer housing provides reliable performance in demanding industrial environments, while the enclosure offers IP67 protection according to EN 60529 and IP69K protection according to ISO 20653. The FR 693-DM1 also features a single M16 × 1.5 threaded conduit entry, providing a practical cable connection for industrial machine installations.

Reliable Guard Monitoring for Industrial Machinery
Safety switches with separate actuators are designed to monitor movable machine guards and protective access points. The switch body is mounted to the fixed machine structure while the actuator is fitted to the movable guard. Opening the guard withdraws the actuator from the switch, changing the contact state so that the associated machine safety system can initiate an appropriate safe response.
The Pizzato FR Series provides a practical electromechanical solution for industrial guard monitoring. The FR 693-DM1 combines slow-action contacts, positive-opening operation, robust technopolymer construction and high environmental protection, making it suitable for machine builders, automation engineers, system integrators and industrial maintenance teams.
Typical Applications
Industrial machine guards and safety doors.
Packaging and production machinery.
Conveyor and material handling systems.
Automated manufacturing equipment.
Machine tools and processing machinery.
