Why Choose the Pizzato FS2096D230 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2096D230 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with guard locking, designed for industrial machinery where controlled access and operator protection are critical. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it combines mechanical interlocking with a solenoid-controlled locking system to deliver reliable safety performance in demanding environments.
This model features a separate actuator system, ensuring that machine guards remain securely closed while hazardous motion is present. The solenoid locking mechanism prevents access until safe conditions are achieved, making it ideal for applications where residual risks remain after machine shutdown.
Operating on a 230 V AC supply, the FS2096D230 is suited for industrial installations requiring higher voltage safety circuits. Its rotating head and durable IP67-rated construction provide installation flexibility and dependable long-term operation in harsh industrial environments.

Advanced Guard Locking for Machine Safety
The FS2096D230 ensures that machine guards remain securely closed while hazardous motion is present. The solenoid locking mechanism physically holds the actuator in place until a safe condition is achieved, preventing accidental access to dangerous moving parts and improving overall safety performance.
Its high holding force and rugged construction make it suitable for demanding industrial environments where safety, reliability and compliance are essential.
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.
