FG 61AD1D0Z-F20 Pizzato FG series safety switch with separate actuator with lock

Why Choose the Pizzato FG 61AD1D0Z-F20 Safety Switch?

The Pizzato FG 61AD1D0Z-F20 is an FG series safety interlock switch with separate actuator and solenoid guard locking, designed for monitoring and securing movable guards, safety doors and access points on industrial machinery. Its robust metal construction and positive-opening safety contacts make it suitable for machinery where access needs to remain restricted while hazardous operating conditions are present.

This model uses operating principle D, meaning the actuator remains locked while the solenoid is de-energised, providing power-to-unlock operation. The contact unit provides 1NO + 3NC contacts operated by the actuator, allowing guard position to be monitored through multiple slow-action contacts as part of the machine safety circuit.

The FG 61AD1D0Z-F20 operates from a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and combines a rotating head with a durable metal housing, three M20 × 1.5 threaded cable entries and IP67 protection according to EN 60529 when correctly installed. The F20 variant provides a dedicated actuator configuration, while this model is specified without integrated LED indication.

Key Advantages

• Power-to-unlock guard locking retains the actuator while the solenoid is de-energised.

Reliable Guard Locking for Industrial Machinery

The FG 61AD1D0Z-F20 combines separate-actuator guard detection with solenoid-operated mechanical locking, allowing a machinery safety system to supervise whether a movable guard is correctly positioned and retained. Its 1NO + 3NC actuator-operated contact arrangement provides multiple signalling paths, including normally closed contacts with positive-opening functionality for safety-related circuits.

With operating principle D, the actuator remains mechanically locked while the solenoid is de-energised. This power-to-unlock arrangement is particularly suited to machinery where guards need to remain secured during hazardous movement, machine run-down or other conditions where immediate access could present a risk.

Typical Applications

• Industrial machine guards and safety doors.
• Robotic cells and automated manufacturing systems.
• Packaging and processing machinery.
• Conveyor and material handling equipment.
• Machine tools and production equipment.
• Automated assembly lines requiring controlled guard access.
