Why Choose the Pizzato FS2196D024-M2 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2196D024-M2 is a robust safety interlock switch with guard locking, engineered for industrial machinery where controlled access and operator safety are critical. As part of the proven Pizzato FS series, it combines mechanical interlocking with a solenoid-controlled locking system to ensure reliable protection in demanding environments.
This version is supplied without actuator, allowing engineers to select the most suitable actuator for their specific machine configuration. The solenoid locking mechanism ensures that guards remain securely closed during operation and prevents access until safe conditions are achieved.
Operating on a 24 V AC/DC supply, the FS2196D024-M2 is ideal for modern industrial control systems. Its rotating head and durable IP67-rated housing provide flexible installation and reliable long-term performance, even in harsh environments.

Advanced Guard Locking for Machine Safety
The FS2196D024-M2 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 dangerous moving parts and improving overall machine safety.
Its actuator-free configuration allows engineers to tailor installations precisely, making it particularly suitable for complex or customised machinery layouts.
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.
