Why Choose the Pizzato BC 2Z8A1A1AL5 Passive Junction Box?
The Pizzato BC 2Z8A1A1AL5 is a compact 8-way passive distribution and junction box designed to simplify the connection of safety devices in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Pizzato BC Series, it provides a centralised connection point for multiple safety devices equipped with 8-pole M12 connectors, helping reduce field wiring and create cleaner machine installations.
This model features 8 × M12 female 8-pole inputs and operates from a 24 V DC supply. The output is provided through an axial 5 m PVC multicore cable comprising 2 × 0.75 mm² + 17 × 0.34 mm² conductors, allowing the combined device signals and power connections to be routed efficiently towards the machine control system.
The BC 2Z8A1A1AL5 is housed in a robust 54 × 152 mm technopolymer enclosure designed for industrial use. The BC Series offers protection up to IP67 and incorporates signalling LEDs for rapid indication of connected device status, making it a practical distribution solution for modern safety installations.

Simplified Safety Device Wiring for Industrial Automation
Passive distribution boxes such as the Pizzato BC 2Z8A1A1AL5 allow multiple machine-mounted safety devices to be brought together at a single connection point. Consolidating the individual inputs helps reduce the number of separate cable runs, improves wiring organisation and can make installation, troubleshooting and device replacement more straightforward.
The BC Series is designed for safety devices equipped with 8-pole M12 male connections and can be used to organise installations incorporating compatible Pizzato safety equipment, including devices from the NG and NS families. The 5 m multicore output cable on this variant provides additional routing flexibility where the distribution box is installed some distance from the associated machine control equipment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine safety systems.
- Safety switch and sensor connection distribution.
- Automated production and assembly machinery.
- Robotic cells and guarded manufacturing equipment.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- OEM machine building and industrial automation systems.
