Why Choose the Pizzato FS2196D024-F3 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2196D024-F3 is a high-performance safety interlock switch with guard locking, engineered 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 ensure dependable safety performance in demanding environments.
This version features a jointed actuator adjustable in two directions, allowing precise alignment with machine guards. The solenoid locking mechanism ensures guards remain securely closed during operation and prevents access until safe conditions are achieved, making it ideal for applications where residual hazards remain after shutdown.
Operating on a 24 V AC/DC supply, the FS2196D024-F3 is suited to modern industrial control systems. Its rotating head and rugged IP67-rated housing provide flexible installation and long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments.

Advanced Guard Locking for Machine Safety
The FS2196D024-F3 ensures that machine guards remain securely closed while hazardous motion is present. The solenoid locking system physically retains the actuator until safe conditions are achieved, preventing accidental access to moving parts and significantly improving machine safety.
Its adjustable actuator enables precise positioning, making it especially suitable for complex machinery layouts where alignment flexibility 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.
