Why Choose the Pizzato FS1896E024 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS1896E024 is a reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking and separate actuator, designed to ensure secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. As part of the proven Pizzato FS series, it prevents access to hazardous areas while machines are operating, helping maintain high levels of operator safety.
This model operates with a 24 V AC/DC solenoid and uses an energised locking principle, meaning the actuator is locked when power is applied. This configuration enables controlled release in the event of power loss or emergency stop, depending on the machine safety design.
The FS1896E024 is supplied without an actuator, giving engineers flexibility to choose the most suitable actuator type for their application. Its rotating head, reinforced technopolymer housing and IP67 protection rating ensure reliable long-term operation in demanding industrial environments.
Key Advantages
- Safety interlock with solenoid locking for controlled machine access.
- 24 V AC/DC operation compatible with industrial control systems.
- Energised locking (power-to-lock) enables controlled release behaviour.
- Separate actuator configuration for flexible system design.
- Prevents machine operation when guards are open.
- Durable construction for long-term industrial reliability.

Flexible Guard Locking for Industrial Safety
The FS1896E024 ensures machinery cannot operate unless guards are securely closed and locked. Its energised locking system provides flexibility for different safety strategies, allowing controlled unlocking behaviour depending on power conditions.
The separate actuator configuration allows engineers to tailor the installation to suit different guard types and machine layouts, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial automation and safety applications.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety door interlocking.
- Industrial automation and robotic systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- CNC machines and industrial equipment.
- Custom safety systems requiring separate actuator selection.
