Why Choose the Pizzato FS2996E230 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS2996E230 is a robust safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed to provide secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. It prevents machines from operating when safety guards are open, ensuring operator safety and compliance with modern machine safety standards.
Part of the proven 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 230 V AC/DC with an energised solenoid locking mechanism (E working method), the FS2996E230 ensures hazardous areas remain securely locked until safe conditions are achieved. Its compact design and standard mounting configuration make it suitable for a wide range of machine guarding applications.
Key Advantages
- Reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking.
- 230 V AC/DC operation for industrial control systems.
- Locked actuator with energised solenoid for controlled access.
- Improves operator safety and machine protection.
- Standard configuration for easy integration into machinery.
- 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.
- 230 V AC/DC control voltage.
- Contact configuration: 1NC (actuator) + 2NC (solenoid).
- Positive opening contacts for safety circuits.
- Technopolymer housing with high durability.
- PG13.5 threaded conduit entries for industrial wiring.
- Compact design for panel and machine integration.
Reliable Safety Control for Industrial Machinery
The FS2996E230 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 that access is granted only when safe conditions are achieved, making it ideal for automated systems where controlled stopping and secure access are essential.
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.
