Why Choose the Pizzato FX6C1-M2 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FX6C1-M2 is a heavy-duty industrial safety switch with slotted lever actuation designed for machine guarding, door position monitoring, and safety interlocking systems. As part of the robust Pizzato FX series, it is engineered for reliable performance in demanding industrial automation environments.
This model uses a slotted-hole lever mechanism to detect the position of hinged or sliding guards. When the guard is opened or moved beyond its safe operating position, the internal switching system immediately changes state, triggering a safety circuit interruption and helping prevent hazardous machine operation.
Built with a durable technopolymer housing and precision slow-action contacts, the FX6C1-M2 delivers long mechanical life, stable switching performance, and dependable safety operation even in harsh industrial environments. Its compact yet rugged design allows easy integration into machine frames and control panels. ([turn0search12])

- High mechanical durability for industrial environments.
- Compact design suitable for OEM machine integration.
- Suitable for hinged and sliding guard detection.
- Reliable integration into PLC safety circuits.
Key Features
- Pizzato FX series safety switch. ([turn0search12])
- 1NO + 1NC slow-action contact configuration. ([turn0search12])
- Slotted-hole lever actuation mechanism.
- Technopolymer industrial housing.
- IP67 protection rating for dust and water resistance. ([turn0search2])
- Dual cable entry design (typical M20 variant in FX family). ([turn0search2])
- Operating temperature range: -25°C to +80°C (typical FX series specification).
The Pizzato FX6C1-M2 ensures safe machine operation by continuously monitoring guard position through its slotted lever system. When movement is detected, the switch immediately changes state and interrupts the safety circuit, helping prevent hazardous operation and protecting operators and equipment.
This makes it ideal for applications requiring direct mechanical guard position detection, offering a simple and highly reliable safety interlock solution for industrial machinery.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard and door position monitoring.
- Industrial automation safety interlocks.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Conveyor systems and material handling equipment.
- OEM machine safety integration.
- General industrial safety circuits.
