Why Choose the Pizzato FS2996E120 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS2996E120 is a robust safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed to provide secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. It prevents equipment from operating when safety doors are open, ensuring operator protection and compliance with modern safety standards.
Part of the heavy-duty Pizzato FS safety switch series, this model is engineered for demanding industrial environments where reliability, durability and safety integrity are essential. It is widely used by machine builders and automation engineers in safety-critical applications.
Operating at 120 V AC/DC with an energised solenoid locking mechanism (E working method), the FS2996E120 ensures hazardous areas remain securely locked until safe conditions are achieved. Its rotating head design and flexible mounting options make it ideal for complex machine guarding installations.
Key Advantages
- Reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking.
- 120 V AC/DC operation suitable for industrial control systems.
- Locked actuator with energised solenoid for controlled access.
- Rotating head design for flexible installation.
- 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.
- 120 V AC/DC control voltage.
- Contact configuration: 1NC (actuator) + 2NC (solenoid).
- Positive opening contacts for safety circuits.
- Rotating head for multi-direction actuator entry.
- Technopolymer housing with high mechanical durability.
- Three PG13.5 threaded conduit entries for wiring flexibility.
Reliable Safety Control for Industrial Machinery
The FS2996E120 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 system ensures that access is granted only when safe conditions are achieved. The rotating head design allows flexible actuator positioning, simplifying installation across a wide range of industrial machine layouts.
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.
