Why Choose the Pizzato FS2896E120-FM2 Safety Switch?

The Pizzato FS2896E120-FM2 is a high-performance safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed to control access to hazardous machinery and ensure safe operation in industrial environments. It prevents machine start-up when guards are open and maintains locking until safe conditions are achieved.

Part of the reliable Pizzato FS safety switch series, this model is engineered for durability and consistent performance in demanding automation systems. It is widely used by machine builders and industrial engineers requiring robust and standards-compliant safety components.

Operating at 120 V AC/DC with an energised solenoid locking mechanism (E working method), the FS2896E120-FM2 ensures controlled access to hazardous zones. Its straight actuator configuration and M20 threaded conduit design make it suitable for a wide range of industrial installations.

Key Advantages

  • Reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking.
  • 120 V AC/DC operation for industrial control systems.
  • Locked actuator with energised solenoid for controlled access.
  • Enhances operator safety and machine protection.
  • Durable construction for long service life in harsh environments.
  • Easy integration into safety circuits and automation systems.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FS series safety switch with separate actuator.
  • Solenoid locking (E type) – locked when energised.
  • 120 V AC/DC control voltage.
  • Contact configuration: 1NC actuator + 1NO/1NC solenoid.
  • Positive opening contacts for safety circuits.
  • Straight actuator configuration for standard installations.
  • Technopolymer housing with high durability.
  • M20 × 1.5 threaded conduit entry for secure wiring.

Reliable Safety Control for Industrial Machinery

The FS2896E120-FM2 ensures machinery operates only when safety guards are correctly positioned. Opening a guard immediately interrupts the safety circuit, preventing hazardous motion and reducing the risk of injury.

Its energised solenoid locking mechanism ensures that access is only granted once safe conditions are achieved, making it ideal for automated systems where controlled stopping and operator safety are critical.

Typical Applications

  • Machine guarding and safety door monitoring.
  • Automated production and assembly systems.
  • Packaging and processing machinery.
  • Robotic cells and industrial automation equipment.
  • Conveyor systems and material handling applications.
  • Industrial safety circuits requiring interlock protection.
