Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60BD5D0C-F28 Safety Switch with Guard Locking?
The Pizzato FG 60BD5D0C-F28 is a heavy-duty safety switch with separate actuator and solenoid guard locking for monitoring and controlling access to hazardous areas of industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato FG series, it combines positive-opening safety contacts, mechanical guard locking and an auxiliary key release for dependable machine-safety applications.
The FG 60BD5D0C-F28 uses the D5D operating principle, with the actuator locked while the solenoid is de-energised. An auxiliary key release provides a manual means of unlocking the mechanism when required. The switch operates from a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and incorporates 1NO + 1NC actuator-operated contacts and 2NC solenoid-operated contacts.
This model is supplied complete with the VF KEYF28 universal actuator, providing installation flexibility where guard alignment or movement makes a universal actuator preferable. Its rugged metal housing, three M20 × 1.5 cable entries, freely configurable orange and green LEDs and IP67 protection according to EN 60529 make it well suited to demanding industrial guarding installations.
Key Advantages
- De-energised-to-lock operation keeps the actuator mechanically retained without continuous solenoid power.
- Auxiliary key release provides controlled manual unlocking when required.
- Supplied with the versatile VF KEYF28 universal actuator.
- 1NO + 1NC actuator contacts and 2NC solenoid contacts provide separate guard and locking-state monitoring.
- 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply suits common industrial machine-control systems.
- Orange and green signalling LEDs are freely configurable for useful visual status indication.
- Robust metal housing with IP67 protection supports demanding industrial installations.

Reliable Guard Locking with Auxiliary Key Release
The FG 60BD5D0C-F28 is designed for machinery where a movable guard must remain mechanically locked until the safety system permits access. Its de-energised-to-lock operating principle retains the actuator when the solenoid is not powered, while the dedicated actuator and solenoid contacts allow the safety system to distinguish between guard position and locking state.
The auxiliary key release adds a controlled manual release function, while the universal VF KEYF28 actuator provides flexibility for machine-guard installations. Positive-opening NC contacts, IP67 protection and the durable metal enclosure make this configuration particularly suitable for industrial automation and production machinery.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine safety doors and access gates.
- Robotic cells and automated production areas.
- Machinery with hazardous run-down or stopping time.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material-handling systems.
- Automated assembly and manufacturing equipment.
- Guarded machinery requiring auxiliary key-release functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Pizzato FG 60BD5D0C-F28 used for?
The FG 60BD5D0C-F28 is designed to monitor and lock movable machine guards, helping prevent access to hazardous machinery until the safety system permits the guard to be released.
How does the FG 60BD5D0C-F28 locking mechanism operate?
It uses the D5D operating principle, meaning the actuator is locked when the solenoid is de-energised. The switch also incorporates an auxiliary key release.
What contact configuration does the FG 60BD5D0C-F28 have?
It provides 1NO + 1NC contacts operated by the actuator and 2NC contacts operated by the solenoid, enabling separate monitoring of guard position and locking status.
Which actuator is supplied with the FG 60BD5D0C-F28?
The switch is supplied complete with the VF KEYF28 universal actuator, designed to provide installation flexibility for movable machine guards.
Does the FG 60BD5D0C-F28 provide status indication?
Yes. This configuration incorporates one orange and one green LED that can be freely configured for signalling within the machine-control system.
