Why Choose the Pizzato FS2998D120 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS2998D120 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed to ensure secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it delivers reliable performance in safety-critical automation environments.
This model features a separate actuator design, enabling flexible installation across a wide range of machine guarding applications. The integrated solenoid locking mechanism ensures that guards remain securely closed during operation, preventing access to hazardous areas.
Operating on a 120 V AC/DC supply with a de-energised locking (fail-safe) principle, the FS2998D120 ensures the actuator remains locked in the event of power loss. Its IP67-rated enclosure, auxiliary key release, and positive opening contacts make it suitable for harsh industrial environments.
Key Advantages
- Reliable safety interlock switch with solenoid locking.
- Fail-safe locking when de-energised for maximum safety.
- Flexible installation with separate actuator design.

Enhanced Safety with Redundant Monitoring
The FS2998D120 provides increased safety through its dual NC solenoid contacts, offering redundancy in safety circuits and improving system reliability. This makes it suitable for applications requiring higher safety integrity levels.
Its fail-safe locking ensures that guards remain securely locked during operation and remain locked during power failure, protecting operators and maintaining compliance with industrial safety standards.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlock systems.
- Automated production lines and robotics.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Industrial safety doors and access control systems.
- Conveyor systems with restricted zones.
- Applications requiring redundant safety monitoring.
