Why Choose the Pizzato FS3096D120 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS3096D120 is a robust safety interlock switch with solenoid locking and separate actuator, designed for secure guard monitoring and controlled access in industrial machinery. As part of the proven Pizzato FS series, it ensures that safety doors remain locked during operation, preventing access to hazardous areas and protecting personnel.
This model operates with a 120 V AC solenoid and uses a de-energised locking principle, meaning the actuator remains locked when power is removed. This fail-safe behaviour ensures safety is maintained during power loss or emergency stop conditions, making it suitable for safety-critical industrial environments.
The FS3096D120 is supplied without an actuator, allowing engineers to select the most suitable actuator type for their specific application. Its rotating head, reinforced technopolymer housing and IP67 protection rating ensure reliable operation in harsh industrial conditions.
Key Advantages
- Safety interlock with solenoid locking for controlled machine access.
- 120 V AC operation compatible with industrial control systems.
- Fail-safe locking (power-to-release) ensures high safety integrity.
- Separate actuator configuration for flexible system design.
- Prevents machine operation when guards are open.
- Durable construction for long-term industrial reliability.

Fail-Safe Guard Locking for Industrial Safety
The FS3096D120 ensures that machinery cannot operate unless guards are securely closed and locked. Its fail-safe design keeps the actuator locked when power is removed, preventing unintended access during power outages or emergency stop conditions.
The separate actuator configuration allows for flexible integration across a wide range of industrial machine designs, making it suitable for complex safety systems and automation environments.
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.
