Why Choose the Pizzato FG60ED1E0Z Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FG60ED1E0Z is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, engineered for industrial machine guard monitoring and controlled access protection. Part of the trusted Pizzato FG series, this model combines reinforced metal construction, monitored guard locking and positive opening safety contacts for demanding industrial automation environments.
Designed for machine guards, access doors and hazardous area protection systems, the FG60ED1E0Z features a rotating head housing for flexible installation in confined machinery layouts. This version uses the E working method, meaning the actuator remains locked when the solenoid is energised, making it suitable for applications requiring power-to-lock functionality.
The switch operates using a 24 VAC/DC solenoid supply and includes 1 NC contact operated by the actuator together with 1 NO + 2 NC contacts operated by the solenoid. This version is supplied without LED indication, making it suitable for installations where external monitoring or PLC diagnostics are preferred.
