FG 60BD5D0A-F28 Pizzato FG series safety switch with separate actuator with lock

Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60BD5D0A-F28 Safety Interlock Switch?

The Pizzato FG 60BD5D0A-F28 is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid guard locking and separate actuator designed for controlled access to hazardous areas of industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato FG series, it combines mechanical guard locking with dedicated electrical contacts for monitoring both guard position and locking status.

This model uses the D working method, meaning the actuator remains locked while the solenoid is de-energised. Its slow-action contact system provides 1 NO + 1 NC contacts operated by the actuator together with 2 NC contacts operated by the solenoid, giving an overall arrangement of 1 NO + 3 NC contacts with positive-opening operation.

The FG 60BD5D0A-F28 operates from a 24 V AC/DC supply and incorporates two green LEDs switched by the solenoid power supply. Its robust metal housing provides IP67 protection according to EN 60529, while the rotating head incorporates a key-operated auxiliary release. The F28 configuration is supplied with a compatible separate actuator for installation on movable machine guards.

Key Advantages

• Heavy-duty safety interlock switch with solenoid-controlled guard locking.
• D working method keeps the actuator locked while the solenoid is de-energised.
• 24 V AC/DC supply suited to industrial machine safety systems.
• Independent actuator and solenoid contacts provide guard position and lock-status monitoring.
• Key-operated auxiliary release provides a manual means of releasing the locking mechanism.
• Positive-opening contacts support dependable machine safety circuit operation.
• Robust metal housing with IP67 protection for demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Power-to-Unlock Guard Protection

The D working method makes the FG 60BD5D0A-F28 suitable for machinery where a protective guard needs to remain mechanically locked while the solenoid is de-energised. Energising the 24 V AC/DC solenoid releases the locking mechanism when the machine safety system determines that access can be permitted.

The rotating head incorporates a key-operated auxiliary release for authorised manual unlocking when required. Combined with independent actuator and solenoid contacts, positive-opening operation and robust metal construction, the FG 60BD5D0A-F28 provides dependable guard monitoring and locking for industrial machinery.

Typical Applications

• Industrial machine guard doors and access gates.
• Robotic cells and fenced automation systems.
• Automated production and assembly machinery.
• Packaging and processing equipment.
• Conveyor and material handling systems.
• Machinery requiring power-to-unlock guard protection with auxiliary key release.
