Why Choose the Pizzato FS3096D120-M2 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS3096D120-M2 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking and separate actuator configuration, designed for reliable guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it ensures that safety guards remain securely locked during operation, preventing access to hazardous areas and protecting operators.
This model operates with a 120 V AC/DC solenoid and features a de-energised locking principle, meaning the actuator remains locked when power is removed. This fail-safe behaviour ensures safety is maintained even during power failure or emergency stop conditions, making it ideal for safety-critical industrial environments.
The FS3096D120-M2 is supplied without an actuator, allowing engineers to select the most suitable actuator type for their specific application. Its rotating head, reinforced technopolymer housing and IP67 protection rating ensure long-term durability and reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
Key Advantages
- Safety interlock with solenoid locking for controlled machine access.
- 120 V AC/DC operation suitable for industrial control systems.
- Fail-safe locking (power-to-release) ensures maximum safety integrity.
- Separate actuator design for flexible configuration.
- Prevents machine operation when guards are open.
- Durable construction for long-term industrial reliability.

Flexible Guard Locking for Industrial Safety
The FS3096D120-M2 ensures machinery cannot operate unless guards are securely closed and locked. Its fail-safe locking mechanism prevents unintended access during power outages or emergency stop conditions, maintaining a safe working environment at all times.
The separate actuator configuration allows engineers to select the correct actuator type for different machine designs, offering maximum flexibility across a wide range of industrial automation applications.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety door interlocking.
- Automated production lines and robotic systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- CNC machines and industrial equipment.
- Custom safety systems requiring separate actuator selection.
