Why Choose the Pizzato FY 61BD1D0Z Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FY 61BD1D0Z is a robust safety switch with separate actuator and guard locking designed for monitoring and securing movable guards on industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato FY series, it combines mechanical guard interlocking with solenoid-controlled locking for applications where access to hazardous machine areas must remain restricted until safe conditions have been reached.
This safety switch uses operating principle D, meaning the actuator is locked when the solenoid is de-energised. The D1 configuration features a sealable auxiliary release device, providing a controlled means of manually releasing the locking mechanism when required for installation, maintenance or servicing.
The FY 61BD1D0Z incorporates the 61B slow-action contact block, providing 2NO+2NC contacts operated by the solenoid for monitoring the locking mechanism. It operates from a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and is supplied without signalling LEDs or an actuator, allowing a compatible Pizzato FY series actuator to be selected according to the machine guard installation.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Guard locking switches such as the Pizzato FY series are designed for machinery where hazardous conditions may remain after a stop command because of mechanical inertia, pressure, elevated temperature or other stored energy. The locking mechanism retains the separate actuator until the machine safety system determines that access can be permitted safely.
The FY 61BD1D0Z combines robust guard locking with four solenoid-operated contacts and a sealable auxiliary release device. Its glass-fibre reinforced technopolymer housing, metal operating head and high degree of environmental protection make it suitable for demanding industrial automation and machine safety installations.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard doors and access gates.
- Industrial robots and automated production cells.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyors and material handling systems.
- Machining centres and manufacturing equipment.
- Machinery with residual movement, pressure or elevated temperatures.
