Why Choose the Pizzato FS2996E120-F3 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS2996E120-F3 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with separate actuator and solenoid locking, designed for high-integrity machine guarding and controlled access in industrial automation environments. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it ensures that hazardous machinery cannot be accessed until safe operating conditions are achieved.
This model features an energised solenoid locking mechanism, meaning the actuator remains locked while power is applied, enabling controlled and programmable access through safety systems or PLC logic. Its durable technopolymer housing and rotating head design provide installation flexibility and long-term reliability in demanding applications.
With a 120 V AC/DC supply, IP67 protection rating and a contact configuration of 1 NC (actuator) and 2 NC (solenoid), the FS2996E120-F3 is engineered for high-integrity safety circuits and compliance with modern machinery safety standards.
Key Advantages
- Energised solenoid locking enables controlled and programmable guard access.
- Positive opening contacts ensure reliable disconnection in fault conditions.
- High contact redundancy (1 NC + 2 NC) for enhanced safety circuit reliability.
- IP67 protection rating for harsh industrial environments.
