Why Choose the Pizzato HP AB050C-2SHT6 Safety Hinge Switch?
The Pizzato HP AB050C-2SHT6 is a robust safety hinge switch designed for integrated monitoring of hinged machine guards, access doors and protective panels. Part of the Pizzato HP Series Safety Hinge Switches, it combines the mechanical hinge and electromechanical safety switching functions in a single assembly, providing a compact solution for industrial machine guarding.
The HP AB050C-2SHT6 incorporates a 1 NO + 1 NC snap-action contact block with positive-opening operation. This configuration provides rapid switching as the hinged guard moves while mechanically opening the relevant safety contact, supporting dependable guard-position monitoring in industrial automation systems.
This version features a durable metal body, a bottom cable output and an approximately 100 × 75 mm movable part. It is supplied with a 2 m halogen-free PUR cable with five 0.75 mm² conductors, providing a robust pre-wired connection for demanding machine installations.

Reliable Guard Monitoring for Industrial Machinery
Safety hinge switches detect guard position directly through the movement of the hinge. When a hinged guard or access door rotates away from its monitored position, the mechanical hinge movement operates the internal contacts, allowing the connected safety circuit to detect the change in guard position and initiate the required machine safety response.
The Pizzato HP AB050C-2SHT6 combines this integrated operating principle with snap-action switching, positive opening and a durable halogen-free PUR cable. Its metal construction and bottom cable exit make it a practical choice for machine builders requiring robust, pre-wired guard monitoring without a conventional separate actuator.
Typical Applications
- Hinged machine safety guards and access doors.
- Industrial automation and production machinery.
- Packaging, processing and assembly equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Machine tools and manufacturing equipment.
- OEM machinery and automated production systems.
