Why Choose the Pizzato HXBH22-0.2PM Safety Hinge Switch?
The Pizzato HXBH22-0.2PM is a premium stainless steel safety hinge switch from the advanced HX series, designed for reliable monitoring of hinged safety guards in high-spec industrial environments. This model integrates the switching mechanism directly into the hinge, eliminating external actuators and ensuring precise, tamper-resistant operation.
Constructed from AISI 316L stainless steel, the HX series is engineered for applications requiring high corrosion resistance and hygienic design. Its seamless construction and concealed fixing points make it ideal for environments such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, and chemical industries.
This version features a 2 NO + 2 NC contact configuration with slow action switching (make-before-break) and positive opening contacts for enhanced safety. The 0.2 metre cable with M12 8-pole connector, combined with IP67 and IP69K protection, ensures dependable performance in harsh and washdown conditions.
