Why Choose the Pizzato FS2896E120 Safety Switch?

The Pizzato FS2896E120 is a robust safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed to provide secure access control and reliable monitoring of machine guards in industrial environments. It prevents machinery from operating when protective doors or guards are open, ensuring safe working conditions for operators.

Part of the trusted Pizzato FS safety switch series, this model is engineered for durability and consistent performance in demanding automation systems. It is widely used in machine building and industrial safety applications where compliance with modern safety standards is essential.

With its 24 V AC/DC operation and energised solenoid locking (E working method), the FS2896E120 ensures that hazardous areas remain locked until safe conditions are achieved. Its reinforced housing and rotating head design allow flexible installation across a wide range of industrial machinery.

Key Advantages

  • Reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking.
  • 24 V AC/DC control voltage for standard industrial systems.
  • Locked actuator with energised solenoid for controlled access.
  • Improves operator safety and machine protection.
  • Durable construction for long service life in harsh environments.
  • Supports integration into safety circuits and automation systems.

Key Features

  • Pizzato FS series safety switch with separate actuator.
  • Solenoid locking (E type) – locked when energised.
  • 24 V AC/DC supply.
  • Contact configuration: 1NC (actuator) + 1NO/1NC (solenoid).
  • Positive opening contacts for safety circuits.
  • Rotating head for flexible actuator entry direction.
  • Technopolymer housing with high mechanical durability.
  • Multiple conduit entries for flexible wiring installation.

Reliable Safety Control for Industrial Machinery

Safety interlock switches such as the FS2896E120 are essential components in modern industrial machinery. They ensure that access points such as doors and guards are securely monitored, preventing machine operation when safety conditions are not met.
