Why Choose the Pizzato FS1896D024-F8 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS1896D024-F8 is a compact and reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed for machine guarding and industrial safety applications. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, this switch ensures that machine access points remain securely locked during hazardous operation, helping to protect both operators and equipment.
This model operates using a power-to-release (de-energised solenoid) principle, meaning the actuator remains locked when power is removed, providing fail-safe protection in emergency or power-loss situations. It features a durable technopolymer housing and precision-engineered internal components for long-term reliability.
With a 24 V AC/DC supply, IP67 protection rating, and integrated safety contacts, the FS1896D024-F8 is ideal for use in automated machinery, conveyors, packaging lines and access-controlled safety systems.

Fail-Safe Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Safety interlock switches like the FS1896D024-F8 are essential components in machine safety systems. They ensure that guards remain locked during hazardous motion and only allow access when safe conditions are met.
The fail-safe design ensures that the actuator remains locked in the absence of power, providing an additional layer of protection in emergency scenarios. Combined with positive opening contacts, this switch is suitable for integration into safety-rated control circuits.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlock systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Automated production and assembly lines.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Robotic cells and CNC machinery.
- Industrial access control and safety zones.
