Why Choose the Pizzato FC3393-FM2 Safety Interlock Switch?
The Pizzato FC3393-FM2 is a robust key-operated safety interlock switch with separate actuator designed for machine guarding, access control, and industrial safety applications. As part of the Pizzato FC series, it ensures that machinery can only operate when protective doors or safety guards are correctly closed and secured.
Built for harsh industrial environments, the FC3393-FM2 features a durable metal housing and a high IP67 protection rating, providing resistance against dust, water ingress, and vibration. It is widely used in automated machinery, production lines, and safety enclosure systems where reliable guard position monitoring is essential for operator protection.
This model uses a separate actuator (F + M2 configuration), where the switch body is mounted on the fixed frame and the actuator is mounted on the moving guard. When the guard opens, the actuator is withdrawn from the sensing head, immediately changing the safety contact state and preventing hazardous machine operation. This configuration is commonly used in standard hinged or sliding guard applications requiring M20 conduit entry wiring.
Key Advantages
- Reliable separate actuator safety interlock system for machine guarding.
- Prevents machine operation when guards or doors are open.
- Heavy-duty metal housing for industrial durability.

- M20 x 1.5 conduit entry for secure industrial wiring installation.
- Suitable for hinged, sliding, and removable guard systems.
Key Features
- Pizzato FC safety switch series.
- Separate actuator (F + M2 configuration).
- Contact configuration: 1NO + 1NC (slow action, B33).
- Positive opening safety contacts.
- IP67 protection rating according to EN 60529.
- Metal housing construction for industrial environments.
- M20 x 1.5 threaded conduit entry.
Reliable Machine Guard Protection
The FC3393-FM2 operates using a separate actuator mounted on the movable guard. When the guard is closed, the actuator engages the switch head, allowing machine operation. When the guard is opened, the actuator is withdrawn, immediately triggering a safety response that stops or prevents machine restart.
This ensures operators are protected from hazardous machine movement during maintenance, inspection, or access events, while maintaining compliance with modern machine safety requirements such as EN ISO 14119.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding systems.
- Safety doors and access panels.
- Industrial automation equipment.
