Why Choose the Pizzato FY 60BD7D0A-F22 Safety Switch with Guard Locking?
The Pizzato FY 60BD7D0A-F22 is a robust safety switch with separate actuator and guard locking designed for monitoring and retaining movable guards on industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato FY series, it combines mechanical guard interlocking, solenoid-controlled locking and independent monitoring of guard and lock status within a durable technopolymer housing.
This configuration uses the D operating principle, meaning the actuator is locked when the solenoid is de-energised. The D7 head incorporates a sealable auxiliary release device and escape release button, providing additional release functionality for machine guarding applications where controlled emergency egress may be required.
The FY 60BD7D0A-F22 operates from a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and provides 1NO + 1NC contacts operated by the actuator together with 2NC contacts operated by the solenoid. It has two green signalling LEDs and is supplied complete with the VF KEYF22 straight actuator with rubber mountings, making it a comprehensive solution for industrial guard-locking installations.
Key Advantages
- Combines guard position monitoring and mechanical guard locking in one industrial safety device.
- De-energise-to-lock operation keeps the actuator mechanically retained while the solenoid is de-energised.
- Integrated sealable auxiliary release and escape release button provide additional controlled release functionality.
- 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply suits common industrial safety and control circuits.
- Separate contact groups allow monitoring of both guard position and locking status.
- IP67 and IP69K protection supports installation in demanding industrial environments.
- Supplied complete with a VF KEYF22 actuator with rubber mountings.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Guard-locking safety switches are used where access to hazardous machinery must remain prevented until operating conditions permit the guard to be released safely. The Pizzato FY 60BD7D0A-F22 combines mechanical guard retention with electrical monitoring of actuator position and solenoid status, allowing the machine safety system to determine whether the protected access point is correctly closed and locked.
The de-energise-to-lock operating principle maintains the locked condition without continuously energising the solenoid. Its sealable auxiliary release and escape release button add useful release functionality, while the VF KEYF22 actuator incorporates rubber mountings that help accommodate the mechanical requirements of suitable movable guard installations.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine guard doors and access gates.
- Robotic cells and automated manufacturing systems.
- Automated production and assembly machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Machine tools and enclosed production machinery.
- OEM machinery requiring monitored guard locking and escape release.
