Why Choose the Pizzato FC3393-F Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FC3393-F is a compact key-operated safety interlock switch designed for machine guarding, access control, and industrial safety systems. As part of the Pizzato FC series, it ensures that machinery can only operate when protective doors or safety guards are correctly closed and locked in position.
Built for demanding industrial environments, the FC3393-F features a rugged metal housing and a high IP67 protection rating, providing excellent resistance to dust, moisture, and vibration. It is commonly used in automated machinery, production lines, and robotic systems where reliable guard monitoring is essential for operator safety.
This variant uses a straight actuator/key interface (F-type head configuration), allowing precise alignment with guard-mounted actuators for consistent and secure operation. When the guard is opened or the actuator is removed, the safety contacts immediately change state, preventing hazardous machine movement.
Key Advantages
- Reliable key-operated safety interlock switch for machine guarding systems.
- Prevents machine operation when safety guards are open.

Reliable Machine Guard Protection
The FC3393-F operates using a key/actuator mechanism mounted on machine guards or access doors. When the guard is closed, the actuator engages the switch, allowing machine operation. If the guard is opened or the actuator is removed, the safety contacts immediately switch state, stopping or preventing machine restart.
This ensures that operators are protected from hazardous machine movement during maintenance, inspection, or access events.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding systems.
- Safety doors and access panels.
- Industrial automation equipment.
- Robotic work cells and safety fences.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- OEM machine safety systems.
