FG 60ED5D0B Pizzato FG series safety switch with separate actuator with lock

Why Choose the Pizzato FG60ED5D0B Safety Interlock Switch?

The Pizzato FG60ED5D0B is a robust FG series safety interlock switch with separate actuator and guard locking, designed for secure access control on industrial machinery, safeguarded machine doors and automated production equipment. Manufactured by Pizzato Elettrica, it combines a durable metal enclosure with a solenoid-controlled locking mechanism for reliable integration into machine safety systems.

This safety switch is intended for applications where access to hazardous machine areas must be controlled until machinery has reached a safe condition. The separate actuator design allows the switch body to be mounted to the fixed machine frame while a compatible actuator is fitted to the moving guard, supporting reliable monitoring of hinged doors, sliding guards, covers and access panels.

With IP67 protection, three M20 x 1.5 conduit entries, 24 V AC/DC solenoid power, 2NO + 1NC actuator-operated contacts, 1NO solenoid-operated contact, integrated key release and one green plus one red LED indicator, the FG60ED5D0B is a dependable choice for machine builders, panel builders and maintenance teams requiring robust guard locking with clear local status signalling.

Key Advantages

• Heavy-duty FG series guard locking safety switch for industrial machine safety.
• Metal housing for robust mechanical protection in demanding environments.
• IP67 ingress protection when installed with correctly rated cable glands.
• 2NO + 1NC contacts operated by the actuator for guard position monitoring and control feedback.
• 1NO contact operated by the solenoid for lock or release status signalling.
• 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply suitable for common industrial control systems.
• Green and red LEDs freely linkable by the user for flexible local indication.

Key Features

• Pizzato FG series safety switch with separate actuator and lock.
• Operating principle D, with locked actuator when the solenoid is de-energised.
• 60E contact block with two normally open and one normally closed actuator contact plus one normally open solenoid contact.
• Key release device for authorised auxiliary unlocking when required.
• Slow-action contact block for controlled safety circuit operation.
• Three M20 x 1.5 threaded conduit entries for flexible field wiring.
• Positive-opening contact design for safety-related switching.
• Supplied without actuator, allowing the correct actuator to be selected separately.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machine Safety

Guard locking safety switches help prevent unsafe access to hazardous machine areas while machinery is still moving, coasting down or presenting a residual risk. The Pizzato FG60ED5D0B supports this requirement by combining mechanical guard locking with both actuator and solenoid contact monitoring for machine control feedback.

The D operating principle keeps the actuator locked when the solenoid is de-energised, making it suitable for applications where the guard should remain locked until the control system energises the solenoid to release it. Its metal housing, IP67 rating and industrial wiring layout make it suitable for production machinery, automated equipment and safeguarded access points where red and green indication is preferred.

Typical Applications

• Machine guard doors and access panels.
• Automated production machinery.
• Packaging and processing equipment.
• Robotic cells and safeguarded access zones.
• Conveyor systems and material handling machinery.
• Industrial equipment requiring guard locking, actuator feedback and solenoid release signalling.
