Why Choose the Pizzato FX 22C2-A Safety Switch with Slotted Hole Lever?
The Pizzato FX 22C2-A is an industrial safety position switch with slotted hole lever designed for monitoring hinged guards, protective doors and moving components on machinery. Part of the Pizzato FX series, it uses direct mechanical actuation to provide dependable position detection for machine safety and automation applications.
Its slotted hole lever provides a mechanical interface between the switch and the associated guard or moving mechanism. Movement of the guard operates the lever and internal contact block, allowing the connected machine control or safety system to detect a change in mechanical position without using a separate key actuator.
The FX 22C2-A features a 2NO + 1NC slow-action contact configuration and robust industrial construction. This three-contact arrangement provides flexibility for safety-related position monitoring and auxiliary signalling in machine-building, manufacturing and automated equipment.

Reliable Mechanical Guard and Position Monitoring
Slotted-lever safety position switches operate through direct physical movement between the machine mechanism and the switch actuator. When a hinged guard or associated component moves, the lever transfers this movement to the internal contact block, providing an electrical indication of the mechanical position to the connected control system.
The Pizzato FX 22C2-A combines this straightforward operating principle with a 2NO + 1NC slow-action contact arrangement. This makes it suitable for machine builders and automation engineers requiring a durable electromechanical switch for guard monitoring, position detection and associated signalling functions.
Typical Applications
- Hinged machine guards and protective doors.
- Industrial machine position monitoring.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling equipment.
- Automated production and assembly machinery.
- OEM machine building and industrial automation systems.
