Why Choose the Pizzato FS2196E120-F7 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS2196E120-F7 is a robust safety interlock switch with solenoid and separate actuator, engineered to provide reliable guard locking and access control in industrial automation systems. As part of the proven Pizzato FS series, it ensures that machine guards remain securely locked while hazardous motion is present, helping to protect personnel and maintain compliance with safety standards.
This variant features a jointed actuator adjustable in one direction, allowing flexible alignment during installation on machine doors and protective guards. The integrated solenoid locking system operates with a 120 V AC/DC supply, ensuring controlled unlocking only when safe operating conditions are met.
With 3 normally closed (NC) safety contacts, IP67 protection and a durable technopolymer housing, the FS2196E120-F7 is designed for demanding industrial environments such as production lines, packaging machinery and automated systems.
