Why Choose the Pizzato FS2096D120-F Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2096D120-F is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with guard locking, designed for industrial machinery where controlled access and operator protection are critical. As part of the proven Pizzato FS series, it combines mechanical interlocking with a solenoid-controlled locking system for reliable and compliant machine safety.
This model features a separate actuator with locking mechanism, ensuring that safety guards remain securely closed while hazardous motion is present. The solenoid locking function prevents access until safe conditions are met, making it ideal for machinery with residual risks after shutdown.
Operating on a 120 V AC/DC supply, the FS2096D120-F is suited for industrial power systems requiring higher voltage control circuits. Its rotating head design and robust construction ensure flexible installation and long-term reliability in demanding environments.
