Why Choose the Pizzato FS2096D120-F3 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2096D120-F3 is a high-performance safety interlock switch with guard locking, designed for industrial machinery where controlled access and operator protection are essential. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it combines mechanical interlocking with a solenoid-controlled locking system to ensure reliable safety in demanding environments.
This version features a separate actuator with locking mechanism, ensuring that machine guards remain securely closed during operation. The solenoid locking function prevents access until safe conditions are met, making it ideal for applications where residual risks remain after machine stop.
Operating on a 120 V AC/DC supply, the FS2096D120-F3 is designed for industrial control systems requiring higher voltage circuits. Its rotating head and durable IP67-rated construction provide flexible installation and dependable performance in harsh environments.

Advanced Guard Locking for Machine Safety
The FS2096D120-F3 ensures that machine guards remain securely closed while hazardous motion is present. The solenoid locking mechanism physically holds the actuator in position until a safe condition is achieved, preventing accidental access to moving parts and improving overall machine safety.
Its adjustable actuator design allows flexible alignment with guards, making it suitable for complex machinery layouts and installations where precise positioning is required.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding with interlocked access systems.
- Robotic cells and automated production lines.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor systems with safety gates.
- Industrial equipment requiring controlled access.
- OEM machinery and automation systems.
