Why Choose the Pizzato FS2096E024-F8M2 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2096E024-F8M2 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed for high-integrity machine guarding and controlled access in industrial automation systems. As part of the advanced Pizzato FS series, it provides reliable guard monitoring and ensures hazardous operations cannot occur unless safety conditions are satisfied.
This version features an E-type working method (power-to-lock), meaning the actuator remains locked when the solenoid is energised. This allows controlled unlocking only when power is removed, making it ideal for applications requiring managed access and operational safety control.
With a 24 V AC/DC supply, IP67 protection rating, and durable technopolymer housing, the FS2096E024-F8M2 is engineered for harsh industrial environments. It also includes a rotating head and universal actuator compatibility for flexible installation across a wide range of machinery.

Controlled Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Safety interlock switches such as the FS2096E024-F8M2 are critical components in machine safety systems. They ensure that guards remain securely locked during hazardous machine operation and only allow access when conditions are safe.
The power-to-lock mechanism enables controlled access management, while the combination of 1 NO and 2 NC contacts provides reliable feedback for safety PLCs and advanced control systems.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlock systems.
- Automated production and assembly lines.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Robotic cells and CNC machinery.
- Industrial safety zones and controlled access systems.
