Why Choose the Pizzato FC3383 Rope Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FC3383 is a reliable rope-operated safety switch with reset function designed for emergency stop applications on conveyors, production lines, and industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato FC series, it provides full-length emergency stop activation from any point along a tensioned safety rope, ensuring fast and safe machine shutdown in hazardous areas.
Built for demanding industrial environments, the FC3383 features a robust metal housing and IP67 protection rating, ensuring resistance against dust, moisture, and vibration. It is widely used in long conveyor systems and industrial installations where continuous rope pull emergency stop coverage is required.
This model includes a manual reset function, meaning the switch remains latched after activation or rope break until it is intentionally reset. This prevents unexpected machine restart and improves operator safety in compliance with EN ISO 13850 standards.

Reliable Rope Emergency Stop Protection
The FC3383 operates by maintaining tension in a safety rope installed along machinery or conveyor systems. If the rope is pulled or breaks, the internal mechanism immediately opens the safety contacts and triggers an emergency stop.
After activation, the switch remains latched until manually reset, ensuring the machine cannot restart until the fault condition has been safely cleared.

- Conveyor belt systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Material handling systems.
- Industrial production lines.
- Warehouse automation systems.
