Why Choose the Pizzato FS1898D120-F8 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS1898D120-F8 is a high-performance safety interlock switch with solenoid and separate actuator, designed for demanding industrial safety applications. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it ensures that hazardous machinery cannot operate while safety guards are open.
This model features a power-to-lock operating principle (locked with de-energised solenoid), ensuring that the actuator remains securely locked until the solenoid is energised. It also includes an auxiliary key release, providing manual override capability when required for maintenance or emergency access.
With a 120 V AC/DC solenoid supply, rotating head and universal actuator compatibility, the FS1898D120-F8 offers flexible installation and dependable safety performance across a wide range of machine guarding applications.
