Why Choose the Pizzato FS3096D120-F Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS3096D120-F is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid locking and straight actuator, designed to ensure secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. As part of the proven Pizzato FS series, it prevents access to hazardous areas while machines are operating, helping to maintain high levels of operator safety.
This model operates with a 120 V AC/DC solenoid and uses a de-energised locking principle, meaning the actuator remains locked when power is removed. This fail-safe behaviour ensures that safety is maintained during power loss or emergency stop conditions, making it suitable for safety-critical industrial environments.
Supplied with a straight actuator, the FS3096D120-F allows precise alignment on machine guards. Its rotating head and durable technopolymer housing provide flexibility and long-term reliability, while the IP67 protection rating ensures dependable operation in harsh industrial conditions.

Fail-Safe Guard Locking for Industrial Safety
The FS3096D120-F ensures that machinery cannot operate unless guards are securely closed and locked. Its fail-safe locking mechanism prevents unintended access during power outages or emergency stop conditions, maintaining a safe working environment at all times.
The integrated straight actuator provides consistent and reliable engagement with safety doors, while the solenoid-controlled release ensures that access is only granted when the machine reaches a safe condition. This makes it ideal for high-risk industrial machinery and automation systems.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety door interlocking.
- Industrial automation and robotic systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- CNC machines and industrial equipment.
- Access control for hazardous industrial zones.
