Why Choose the Pizzato FS2996E024-FK21 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS2996E024-FK21 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, engineered to provide secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. It prevents equipment operation when safety doors are open, helping ensure operator protection and compliance with safety standards.
Part of the robust Pizzato FS safety switch series, this model is designed for demanding automation environments where reliability and safety integrity are critical. It is widely used by machine builders and industrial engineers in safety-critical applications.
Operating at 24 V AC/DC with an energised solenoid locking mechanism (E working method), the FS2996E024-FK21 ensures hazardous areas remain locked until safe conditions are achieved. This version includes a straight actuator configuration with auxiliary release mechanism, allowing manual unlocking in specific maintenance or emergency conditions.
Key Advantages
- Reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking.
- 24 V AC/DC operation for industrial control systems.
- Locked actuator with energised solenoid for controlled access.
- Auxiliary release mechanism for maintenance or emergency override.
- Improves operator safety and machine protection.
- Durable construction for long service life in harsh environments.
Key Features
- Pizzato FS series safety switch with separate actuator.
- Solenoid locking (E type) – locked when energised.
- 24 V AC/DC control voltage.
- Contact configuration: 1NC (actuator) + 2NC (solenoid).
- Positive opening contacts for safety circuits.
- Straight actuator configuration.
- Auxiliary release (K21 type) for manual override.
- Technopolymer housing with high mechanical durability.
- PG13.5 threaded conduit entries for industrial wiring.
Reliable Safety Control for Industrial Machinery
The FS2996E024-FK21 ensures machinery operates only when safety guards are securely closed. Opening a guard immediately interrupts the safety circuit, preventing hazardous motion and reducing the risk of injury.
Its energised solenoid locking mechanism ensures access is granted only when safe conditions are achieved, while the integrated auxiliary release function allows controlled manual override when required for maintenance or emergency situations.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety door monitoring.
- Automated production and assembly systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Robotic cells and industrial automation systems.
- Conveyor systems and material handling equipment.
- Industrial safety circuits requiring interlock protection.
