Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60FD5D0Z-F28 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FG 60FD5D0Z-F28 is a robust safety switch with separate actuator and solenoid guard locking from the Pizzato FG Series. Designed for monitoring and locking movable guards on industrial machinery, it combines mechanical guard detection with controlled locking to help prevent access while hazardous machine conditions remain.
This configuration uses the D working principle, meaning the actuator is locked when the electromagnet is de-energised. Its contact unit incorporates 1NO contact operated by the actuator together with 1NO + 2NC contacts operated by the solenoid, allowing the safety control system to monitor both guard position and the condition of the locking mechanism.
The FG 60FD5D0Z-F28 features a rugged metal housing with three M20 × 1.5 cable entries, a rotating head with key-operated auxiliary release and a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply. It is supplied complete with the VF KEYF28 universal actuator, provides a locking force of 3000 N and achieves IP67 protection according to EN 60529 when correctly installed with a suitable cable gland.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
Guard-locking safety switches are used where a machine guard must remain secured until hazardous movement or processes have reached a safe condition. The Pizzato FG Series combines separate-actuator guard detection with an electromechanical locking mechanism, enabling safety circuits to supervise both the physical position of the guard and its locked state.
The FG 60FD5D0Z-F28 is particularly suitable for applications requiring the guard to remain locked if power to the solenoid is removed. Its 3000 N locking force, positive-opening safety operation, rugged metal enclosure and universal F28 actuator make it a dependable solution for industrial machinery and automated safety systems.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine guard doors and access gates.
- Robotic cells and automated manufacturing systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Machine tools and machining centres.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Automated assembly lines and guarded production equipment.
