Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60GD5D2Z-F21 Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FG 60GD5D2Z-F21 is an industrial safety switch with separate actuator and guard locking from the Pizzato FG Series. Designed for monitoring movable guards, doors and access gates, it combines mechanical guard detection with a locking mechanism to support controlled access to hazardous machinery.
The FG Series uses a robust metal housing and positive-opening safety contact technology for demanding machine-safety installations. Its rotating-head architecture allows the actuator entry direction to be adapted during installation, while the auxiliary release arrangement provides a practical method of releasing the locking mechanism when required.
This -F21 configuration is supplied with the corresponding F21 actuator, creating a complete separate-actuator interlocking assembly. The FG Series metal enclosure and threaded cable entries provide a durable installation platform for industrial automation, machine tools, production equipment and guarded manufacturing systems.
Key Advantages
- Combines guard-position monitoring and guard locking in one industrial safety device.
- Separate actuator system is suitable for hinged, sliding and removable machine guards.
- F21 actuator configuration provides a complete switch-and-actuator solution.
- Positive-opening safety operation supports dependable safety-related switching.

- Suitable for industrial automation and machinery safety systems.
Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery
A guard-locking safety switch is used where simply detecting that a protective guard is closed is not sufficient. The separate actuator enters the switch when the guard closes, allowing its position to be monitored while the locking mechanism can retain the actuator whenever the machine safety system requires the guard to remain secured.
The Pizzato FG Series combines this functionality with rugged metal construction and positive-opening safety technology. The FG 60GD5D2Z-F21 therefore provides machine builders with a practical solution for guarded equipment where reliable interlocking and controlled access are important parts of the overall safety architecture.
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 equipment.
- Automated assembly lines and guarded production cells.
