Why Choose the Pizzato FS3098D024-K40 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FS3098D024-K40 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid and separate actuator, engineered for secure machine guarding and controlled access in industrial automation systems. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, it ensures that safety guards remain locked while hazardous motion is present, protecting operators and maintaining compliance with machinery safety standards.
This model operates using a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and incorporates a separate actuator system, allowing flexible installation on machine doors, gates and protective enclosures. Its D-type working principle ensures that the actuator remains locked when the solenoid is de-energised, providing fail-safe protection during power loss.
With a rugged technopolymer housing, rotating head and high ingress protection, the FS3098D024-K40 is designed for demanding industrial environments such as automated production lines, packaging systems and material handling equipment.

Fail-Safe Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
The FS3098D024-K40 is designed to ensure that machine guards remain securely locked while hazardous motion is present. Its D-type fail-safe locking mechanism maintains the locked state even during power loss, reducing the risk of accidental access and improving overall safety system reliability.
The separate actuator configuration provides installation flexibility, making it suitable for OEM machine builders and system integrators working with complex safety systems.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding systems with interlocked access doors.
- Automated production and assembly lines.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- Robotic cells and hazardous area protection.
- OEM machinery safety integration.
