Why Choose the Pizzato NX P42CZ1SPK-F61 RFID Safety Switch?
The Pizzato NX P42CZ1SPK-F61 is a compact RFID safety switch with guard locking designed for dependable monitoring and controlled access to movable guards on industrial machinery. Part of the advanced Pizzato NX series, it combines non-contact RFID actuator recognition with a bistable locking mechanism for applications where reliable guard monitoring and controlled release are required.
This model operates in Mode 2, with the OS1 and OS2 safety outputs activated when the actuator is inserted. It provides two safety outputs, one signalling output for actuator-inserted status, two solenoid activation inputs and one programming/reset input, allowing straightforward integration with compatible machine safety controllers and safety PLCs.
The NX P42CZ1SPK-F61 is supplied with the VN NX-F61 high-level coded RFID actuator and features an 8-pole M12 connector for stand-alone connections. Its bistable locking mechanism provides a maximum locked-actuator holding force of 6000 N, while IP67 and IP69K protection, a three-sided auxiliary release and an illuminated RGB LED cover make it well suited to demanding industrial and washdown environments.

Reliable RFID Guard Monitoring and Locking for Industrial Machinery
The Pizzato NX series combines coded RFID guard detection with mechanical guard locking in an exceptionally compact format. In Mode 2 operation, the NX P42CZ1SPK-F61 activates its OS1 and OS2 safety outputs when the actuator is inserted, allowing the machine safety system to monitor the guard position while the bistable locking mechanism is controlled independently.
This operating arrangement is suitable for machinery where guard position must be monitored reliably while access is controlled according to machine conditions. The high-level coded actuator, strong locking mechanism, robust ingress protection and stand-alone M12 connection make the NX P42CZ1SPK-F61 a practical solution for sophisticated industrial safety systems.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard doors and protective access panels.
- Industrial automation and robotic cells.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Food, beverage and pharmaceutical machinery.
- Automated production and assembly equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Machinery requiring controlled access to hazardous areas.
- Safety systems requiring high-level coded RFID guard monitoring and locking.
