Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60BD7E0B-LP30 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FG 60BD7E0B-LP30 is a heavy-duty FG series safety switch with solenoid guard locking and separate actuator, designed for monitoring and controlling access to hazardous areas on industrial machinery. The FG series provides robust guard interlocking for applications where a movable guard must remain secured until the machine has reached a safe condition.
This configuration belongs to Pizzato's established FG family of metal-bodied guard-locking switches, which provides high mechanical strength and a maximum actuator holding force of up to 2,800 N. The series supports both actuator-position and lock-status monitoring, allowing the safety control system to supervise the state of the machine guard and its locking mechanism.
The LP30 configuration provides integrated signalling for clear local status indication, while the FG platform features a robust metal enclosure with three M20 cable entries and IP67 protection. Key-operated and escape-release functionality within this configuration makes the switch particularly suitable for guarded machinery where controlled access and personnel release provisions are required.

Controlled Access with Solenoid Guard Locking
Guard-locking safety switches are used where detecting the position of a protective guard alone is insufficient. On machinery with hazardous run-down times or processes that cannot be interrupted safely by immediate access, the guard can be kept mechanically locked until the safety control system determines that the hazardous condition has ended.
The Pizzato FG series combines separate-actuator guard detection with solenoid-operated locking in a rugged industrial package. With a maximum actuator holding force of 2,800 N, metal construction, status indication and dedicated release functions, the FG 60BD7E0B-LP30 provides a practical solution for demanding machinery access-control applications.
Typical Applications
- Guard locking on automated production machinery.
- Robotic cells and perimeter safety doors.
- Machinery with hazardous run-down times.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Machine tools and manufacturing systems.
- Assembly and material handling machinery.
- Hinged and sliding industrial safety guards.
- OEM machinery requiring monitored guard locking.
