Why Choose the Pizzato FS2896E230-F7 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS2896E230-F7 is a high-performance safety interlock switch with separate actuator and solenoid locking, designed for advanced machine guarding and controlled access in industrial environments. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it ensures hazardous machinery remains inaccessible until safe operating conditions are confirmed.
This model features an energised solenoid locking mechanism, meaning the actuator remains locked while power is applied. This enables controlled and programmable guard access using safety relays or PLC systems, making it ideal for automated machinery and safety-critical production lines.
With a 230 V AC/DC supply, IP67 protection rating and a contact configuration of 1 NC (actuator) and 1 NO + 1 NC (solenoid), the FS2896E230-F7 is engineered for high-integrity safety circuits and reliable switching performance in demanding industrial applications.
