FG 60RD7D0B Pizzato FG series safety switch with separate actuator with lock

Why Choose the Pizzato FG 60RD7D0B Safety Interlock Switch?

The Pizzato FG 60RD7D0B is a heavy-duty safety interlock switch with separate actuator and solenoid guard locking designed for monitoring and securing protective guards on industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato FG Series, it combines positive-opening safety operation, mechanical guard locking and a robust metal enclosure for demanding machine safety applications.

This configuration uses the D working method, meaning the actuator remains locked while the solenoid is de-energised. Its rotating head incorporates an escape pushbutton, providing an emergency release facility for applications where personnel may enter a protected machine area and require a means of releasing the guard from inside.

The FG 60RD7D0B operates from a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and uses a slow-action 2 NO + 2 NC contact block operated by the solenoid. It also features one green and one red freely connectable LED, an IP67-rated metal housing and three M20 × 1.5 cable entries, providing a versatile solution for industrial guard-locking systems.

Reliable Guard Locking with Emergency Escape Release

Safety interlock switches with solenoid locking help prevent access to hazardous machinery while unsafe operating conditions remain present. A compatible separate actuator engages with the FG 60RD7D0B when the protective guard closes, while its solenoid-controlled locking mechanism determines when the actuator can be released.

The D working method keeps the actuator locked while the solenoid is de-energised, while the rotating head's escape pushbutton provides an important emergency-release facility for accessible guarded areas. Combined with positive-opening contacts, visual LED indication and rugged IP67 construction, the FG 60RD7D0B provides a dependable guard-locking solution for industrial machinery.

Typical Applications

• Industrial machine safety doors and protective guards.
• Robotic cells and enclosed automation systems.
• Automated production and assembly machinery.
• Guarded areas requiring an internal escape-release facility.
• Packaging and processing equipment.
• Conveyor and material handling systems.
• Machine tools and automated manufacturing equipment.
