Why Choose the Pizzato FS2996D024-F1M2 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2996D024-F1M2 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, engineered for secure machine guarding and controlled access in industrial automation systems. As part of the proven Pizzato FS series, it delivers reliable performance, robust construction and long-term durability in demanding industrial environments.
This model features a separate actuator with guard locking and operates using a de-energised solenoid locking principle, ensuring the actuator remains locked when power is removed. This fail-safe behaviour is essential for preventing access to hazardous machinery during emergency stop conditions or power failure, maintaining operator safety at all times.
With a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply, IP67 protection rating, and a contact configuration of 1 NC (actuator) + 2 NC (solenoid), the FS2996D024-F1M2 is ideal for machine safety doors, guard systems and automated production equipment requiring reliable interlocking and redundancy.

Fail-Safe Guard Locking for Industrial Safety
Safety interlock switches such as the FS2996D024-F1M2 ensure that machine guards remain securely locked until hazardous motion has stopped. This significantly reduces the risk of operator injury and enhances compliance with industrial safety regulations.
The de-energised solenoid locking mechanism guarantees that the actuator remains locked during power failure, maintaining safety integrity and ensuring reliable protection even in emergency conditions.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard doors and safety enclosures.
- Automated production lines and robotic systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Industrial access control systems.
- OEM machinery and automation integration.
