Why Choose the Pizzato FS2896D024-FK21 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2896D024-FK21 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed for secure machine guarding and controlled access in industrial automation systems. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it delivers reliable safety performance, high durability and consistent switching precision in demanding environments.
This model features a separate actuator with guard locking and operates using a de-energised solenoid locking principle, ensuring the actuator remains locked when power is removed. This fail-safe design is essential for maintaining operator safety and preventing hazardous access during power loss or emergency conditions.
With a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply, IP67 protection rating, and a contact configuration of 1 NC (actuator) + 1 NO + 1 NC (solenoid), the FS2896D024-FK21 is ideal for safety doors, machine guards and automated production systems requiring dependable interlocking.

Fail-Safe Guard Locking for Industrial Safety
Safety interlock switches such as the FS2896D024-FK21 ensure that machine guards remain securely locked until hazardous motion has stopped. This significantly reduces the risk of operator injury and ensures safe machine operation in industrial environments.
The de-energised solenoid locking mechanism guarantees that the actuator remains locked during power failure, maintaining safety integrity even in emergency situations. This makes it ideal for high-risk applications requiring strict compliance with safety standards.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard doors and safety enclosures.
- Automated production lines and robotic systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Industrial access control systems.
- OEM machinery and automation integration.
