Why Choose the Pizzato FS3098D230-F7M2 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FS3098D230-F7M2 is a high-integrity safety interlock switch with solenoid locking, designed for secure guard monitoring in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the robust Pizzato FS series, this device ensures that hazardous machine movements are safely controlled by preventing access until safe conditions are met.
This version operates using a power-to-release (de-energised solenoid locking) principle, meaning the actuator remains locked when power is removed. This fail-safe behaviour enhances operator protection in the event of power loss or emergency stop conditions.
With a 230 V AC/DC solenoid supply, IP67 protection rating, and rugged technopolymer housing, the FS3098D230-F7M2 is ideal for demanding industrial environments such as automated production lines, machine guarding systems, and access-controlled safety applications.

Fail-Safe Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Safety interlock switches such as the FS3098D230-F7M2 are critical components in machine safety systems. They ensure that guards remain locked during hazardous operations and only allow access when safe conditions are confirmed.
The fail-safe locking principle ensures that even in the event of power loss, the guard remains secured. Combined with dual contact monitoring, this enables advanced safety logic and reliable integration into safety PLCs and control systems.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlock systems.
- Automated production and assembly lines.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Robotic cells and CNC equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Industrial access control and safety zones.
