Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60AD1E3Z-F28 Safety Switch with Separate Actuator and Lock?
The Pizzato FG 60AD1E3Z-F28 is a heavy-duty FG Series safety switch with separate actuator and solenoid-operated guard locking, engineered for monitoring protective doors and guards on industrial machinery. Its robust construction combines guard-position detection, mechanical locking and positive-opening safety operation for demanding machine safety applications.
This FG configuration uses an energised-solenoid locking principle and a 24 V DC solenoid supply. It provides 1NO + 1NC contacts operated by the actuator together with 1NO + 1NC contacts operated by the solenoid, enabling an appropriately designed safety system to monitor both guard position and locking status.
The F28 configuration is supplied with the Pizzato VF KEYF28 universal actuator. This jointed actuator is specifically designed to accommodate guards with poor alignment and is adjustable in two directions, making it particularly useful for smaller doors and installations requiring flexible actuator positioning.

Reliable Guard Locking with a Universal Actuator
The Pizzato FG 60AD1E3Z-F28 is intended for machinery where protective access points need both monitored interlocking and controlled mechanical retention. When the separate actuator engages with the switch, the device can provide information about guard position while its solenoid-operated mechanism controls locking according to the machine safety strategy.
A major advantage of the F28 version is its VF KEYF28 universal actuator. Its jointed construction accommodates poorly aligned guards, while adjustment in two directions and multiple mounting possibilities simplify installation on smaller or mechanically challenging guard doors. This makes the FG 60AD1E3Z-F28 particularly versatile for industrial machine-building applications.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine guards requiring controlled locking.
- Safety gates and protective access doors.
- Guards with alignment variations.
- Automated production and assembly machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Robotic and automated manufacturing cells.
- Conveyor and material-handling systems.
- OEM machinery and industrial automation installations.
