Why Choose the Pizzato ST GD420MK-L0T ST G Series Safety Sensor?
The Pizzato ST GD420MK-L0T is a compact RFID safety sensor designed for non-contact monitoring of movable guards, doors and protective access points on industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato ST G series, it combines RFID transponder technology with electronic safety circuitry to provide reliable guard-position monitoring without the mechanical wear associated with conventional electromechanical safety switches.
The ST GD420 architecture operates from a 24 V DC supply and provides two safety inputs IS1–IS2, two safety outputs OS1–OS2, one signalling output O3 and one programming input I3. This configuration supports integration with modern safety PLCs, safety modules and series-connected safety architectures, while integrated diagnostic indication helps simplify machine commissioning and troubleshooting.
This MK version features an integrated M12 connector and is supplied with the compact SM L0T RFID actuator. The L0T actuator has a low coding level and provides an 11 mm actuation distance, making it particularly suitable for installations where a miniaturised actuator is required. IP67 and IP69K protection and an operating range of -25 to +70 °C support dependable operation in demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Safety Interlocking for Industrial Automation
The Pizzato ST G series uses RFID technology to detect a compatible coded actuator without requiring physical contact between the sensor and moving guard. This non-contact operating principle reduces mechanical wear and helps maintain dependable safety monitoring on guards exposed to frequent operating cycles, vibration and normal alignment tolerances. The compact L0T actuator is particularly useful where mounting space is limited.
The ST GD420MK-L0T combines two safety inputs with two safety outputs, signalling output O3 and programming input I3 for integration into modern industrial safety architectures. Its low-level coded L0T actuator uses the standard low-coded recognition scheme, while the integrated M12 connection provides convenient installation and servicing within modular machine wiring systems.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard and access-door monitoring.
- Compact guards with limited actuator mounting space.
- Automated manufacturing and assembly machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Robotic cells and automated production lines.
