Why Choose the Pizzato FS1896E120-F7 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS1896E120-F7 is a compact and reliable safety interlock switch with separate actuator and solenoid locking, designed to protect operators and control access to hazardous machinery. As part of the trusted Pizzato FS series, it ensures that safety guards remain securely locked until safe operating conditions are met.
This model features an energised solenoid locking mechanism, meaning the actuator remains locked while power is applied. This allows controlled and programmable access through safety relays or PLC-based systems, making it ideal for automated production environments and machine safety applications.
With a 120 V AC/DC supply, IP67 protection rating and a contact configuration of 1 NO and 1 NC solenoid contacts, the FS1896E120-F7 is engineered for dependable performance and integration into modern industrial safety circuits.
