Why Choose the Pizzato FP20R2-L20F Safety Switch?
The Pizzato FP20R2-L20F is a heavy-duty safety switch with manual mechanical delay, designed to ensure controlled machine stopping and safe operator access in industrial automation systems. As part of the durable Pizzato FP20R2 series, it provides high safety integrity, strong actuator locking and reliable long-term performance in demanding environments.
This model features a manual mechanical delay of approximately 20 seconds, ensuring that safety contacts remain engaged after actuation. This extended delay allows hazardous machine motion to fully stop before access is permitted, significantly improving operator safety and helping meet strict machinery safety requirements.
Designed for use with a separate actuator, the FP20R2-L20F enables flexible installation on machine guards, doors and access points. Its rugged construction, high locking force and reliable switching behaviour make it ideal for safety-critical industrial applications.
Key Advantages
- Manual mechanical delay (approx. 20 s) ensures safe machine run-down.
- Flexible installation with separate actuator systems.
- Positive opening NC contacts for safety-critical circuits.
- High actuator locking force (approx. 1000 N) for enhanced safety.
- High durability for harsh industrial environments.
- Designed for integration into modern safety systems.
Key Features
- Pizzato FP20R2 series safety switch.
- Model: FP20R2-L20F
- Function: Manual mechanical delay (approx. 20 s).
- Actuation: Separate actuator required.
- Contact configuration: 1 NO + 2 NC (slow action).
- Positive opening NC contacts.
- Key-operated safety mechanism.
- Heavy-duty industrial construction.
Controlled Access and Enhanced Machine Safety
The FP20R2-L20F is specifically designed for machinery where immediate access could present a hazard. Its extended delay mechanism ensures that moving parts have fully stopped before unlocking or disengagement occurs, significantly improving operator safety.
With its long delay timing, it is particularly suited to high-inertia machinery and applications where longer stopping times are required to ensure safe access conditions.
Typical Applications
- Machine guarding and safety interlock systems.
- Industrial automation with long stopping times.
- Conveyor systems and heavy machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Safety doors and access panels.
- Hazardous motion zones requiring extended shutdown delay.
