Why Choose the Pizzato FY 60AD1D0A-N17 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FY 60AD1D0A-N17 is a robust safety switch with separate actuator and guard locking designed for monitoring and controlling access to hazardous areas of industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato FY safety switch series, it combines mechanical guard position detection with solenoid-operated locking for dependable machine safety applications.
The FY 60AD1D0A-N17 uses a D operating principle, with the actuator locked while the solenoid is de-energised. Its slow-action switching arrangement incorporates 1NO + 1NC contacts operated by the actuator and 1NO + 1NC contacts operated by the solenoid, enabling the safety control system to monitor both guard position and locking status independently.
Designed for industrial control systems, the FY 60AD1D0A-N17 features a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and a durable enclosure suitable for demanding machinery applications. Its separate-actuator design allows the switch body to be mounted to the fixed section of a guard while the actuator interfaces with the moving door or gate.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Safety switches with guard locking are used on machinery where opening a protective guard before hazardous movement has stopped could create an unacceptable risk. The Pizzato FY 60AD1D0A-N17 combines mechanical detection of the separate actuator with an electrically controlled locking mechanism, allowing a safety control system to determine both whether the guard is closed and whether it is securely locked.
With its D operating principle, the actuator remains locked when the solenoid is de-energised. This arrangement is particularly useful for applications where guards must remain secured during machine operation or while hazardous movement is running down, with the solenoid used to release the locking mechanism when access can safely be permitted.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard doors and access gates.
- Automated production and assembly machinery.
- Robotic cells and safety enclosures.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyors and material handling equipment.
- Machinery with hazardous run-down or stopping times.
