Why Choose the Pizzato VF KEYD11 Safety Switch Actuator?
The Pizzato VF KEYD11 is a dedicated separate actuator for Pizzato FR, FM, FX, FZ, FK and FW series safety switches. Designed for movable machine guards, doors and access panels, it provides the mechanical interface that operates a compatible safety switch as the guard is opened or closed.
The VF KEYD11 features a straight actuator configuration intended for compatible Pizzato safety switches with separate actuators. When correctly installed on the movable part of a guard, the actuator enters the switch head as the guard closes, allowing the associated safety switch to detect the guard position.
As a genuine Pizzato accessory, the VF KEYD11 provides machine builders and maintenance engineers with a manufacturer-matched replacement or new-installation actuator. It is a passive mechanical component requiring no electrical supply, while the compatible FR, FM, FX, FZ, FK or FW series switch provides the electrical safety switching function.

Reliable Mechanical Actuation for Machine Guard Monitoring
Safety switches with separate actuators are commonly used to monitor movable guards on industrial machinery. The switch body is normally mounted to the fixed machine structure while the actuator is fitted to the movable guard, allowing the safety system to detect whether the guard is in the required position.
The Pizzato VF KEYD11 provides the dedicated mechanical actuator for compatible FR, FM, FX, FZ, FK and FW series switches. Correct alignment between the actuator and switch head is important during installation so that the actuator enters and leaves the switch smoothly without being used as a mechanical stop for the guard.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine guard monitoring.
- Hinged and sliding safety doors.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Automated production and assembly equipment.
- Manufacturing cells and guarded access points.
- Replacement actuator requirements for compatible Pizzato FR, FM, FX, FZ, FK and FW series switches.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Pizzato VF KEYD11?
The VF KEYD11 is a separate safety switch actuator designed to mechanically operate compatible Pizzato safety switches when a machine guard or door is closed.
Which Pizzato safety switch series are compatible with the VF KEYD11?
The VF KEYD11 is intended for compatible Pizzato FR, FM, FX, FZ, FK and FW series safety switches with separate actuators.
What type of actuator is the VF KEYD11?
The VF KEYD11 is a straight separate actuator designed for installation on movable machine guards and safety doors.
Where is the VF KEYD11 installed?
The actuator is normally mounted on the movable guard or door, with the compatible safety switch mounted to the fixed machine structure so that the actuator engages the switch when the guard closes.
Does the VF KEYD11 require electrical wiring?
No. The VF KEYD11 is a passive mechanical actuator and requires no electrical supply or wiring; electrical safety switching is performed by the compatible Pizzato switch.
Can the VF KEYD11 be used as a mechanical door stop?
No. The actuator and safety switch should be correctly aligned and installed so that the actuator is not used as the mechanical stop for the machine guard.
Is the VF KEYD11 supplied as a complete safety switch?
No. The VF KEYD11 is the actuator accessory only; the appropriate compatible Pizzato FR, FM, FX, FZ, FK or FW series safety switch is selected separately.
