Why Choose the Pizzato FS1896E024-F2M2 Safety Interlock Switch?

The Pizzato FS1896E024-F2M2 is a compact and reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed for secure guard monitoring in industrial machinery. As part of the durable Pizzato FS series, it delivers dependable protection in safety-critical automation environments.

This variant features an F2 jointed actuator combined with an M20 × 1.5 cable entry (M2), offering both flexible actuator alignment and robust conduit-based wiring. It is particularly suited for installations where alignment tolerance and structured cable routing are essential.

Operating on a 24 V AC/DC supply with an energised locking (working method E), the FS1896E024-F2M2 locks the actuator when power is applied. Its IP67-rated technopolymer housing, rotating head and positive opening contacts ensure durability and long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments.

Key Advantages

  • Reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking.
  • Power-to-lock (energised locking) operation for controlled access systems.
  • F2 jointed actuator allows flexible installation alignment.
  • M20 cable entry supports industrial conduit wiring.
  • 1 NO + 1 NC solenoid contacts for reliable switching.
  • Durable construction for industrial environments.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FS series safety switch.
  • Model: FS1896E024-F2M2.
  • Separate actuator with solenoid locking.
  • F2 jointed actuator configuration.
  • M20 × 1.5 threaded conduit entry.
  • Working method E: locked actuator when energised.
  • Contact configuration: 1 NO + 1 NC (solenoid operated).
  • Positive opening contacts for safety circuits.
  • Rotating head for installation flexibility.

Flexible Alignment with Controlled Locking Operation

The FS1896E024-F2M2 is designed for applications where both installation flexibility and controlled guard locking are required. The jointed actuator allows alignment compensation, while the M20 conduit entry ensures clean and secure cable routing in industrial panels.

Unlike fail-safe versions, this energised locking design allows guards to be released automatically in case of power loss, making it suitable for applications where emergency exit or controlled access is required.

Typical Applications

  • Machine guarding with controlled access systems.
  • Packaging and processing machinery.
  • Industrial automation and robotics.
  • Safety doors requiring power-to-lock functionality.
  • Conveyor systems with controlled access zones.
  • Installations requiring M20 conduit wiring.
