Why Choose the Pizzato FS2896E120 Safety Switch?

The Pizzato FS2896E120 is a robust safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, engineered to provide secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. It ensures that equipment cannot operate when safety doors or guards are open, helping maintain compliance with modern machine safety standards.

Part of the dependable Pizzato FS safety switch series, this model is designed for long-term reliability in demanding automation environments. It is widely used by machine builders and safety engineers requiring consistent performance and high integrity protection.

With a 120 V AC/DC operating voltage and energised solenoid locking (E working method), the FS2896E120 keeps hazardous areas locked until safe conditions are achieved. Its durable construction and flexible actuator configuration make it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.

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.
  • Improves operator safety and machine protection.
  • Durable construction for long service life in harsh environments.
  • Suitable for integration into safety circuits and automation systems.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FS series safety switch.
  • Solenoid locking (E type) – locked when energised.
  • 120 V AC/DC control voltage.
  • Contact configuration: typically 1NC actuator + 1NO/1NC solenoid.
  • Positive opening contacts for safety applications.
  • Separate actuator design for flexible installation.
  • Technopolymer housing for high mechanical durability.
  • Multiple conduit entry options depending on variant.

Reliable Safety Control for Industrial Machinery

The FS2896E120 ensures that machinery operates only when safety guards are securely closed. Opening a guard interrupts the safety circuit immediately, preventing hazardous motion and protecting personnel.

Its solenoid locking mechanism ensures that access is only granted once safe conditions are met, making it ideal for automated systems where controlled stopping and secure access are essential for safe operation.

Typical Applications

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