Why Choose the Pizzato FP6R2-FK21 Safety Limit Switch?
The Pizzato FP6R2-FK21 is a robust and high-reliability safety limit switch with manual mechanical delay and separate actuator, designed for industrial machinery where controlled access and secure guard locking are essential. As part of the trusted Pizzato FP series, it ensures dependable safety performance in demanding automation environments.
This model features a manual mechanical delay mechanism of approximately 20 seconds, ensuring that machine guards remain locked after actuation until hazardous motion has completely stopped. This is critical for machinery with residual movement or stored energy, preventing unsafe or premature access.
The K21 configuration provides enhanced actuator holding force, ensuring secure guard retention and resistance to forced opening. Combined with positive opening safety contacts, the FP6R2-FK21 guarantees reliable circuit interruption and compliance with industrial safety standards.
Key Advantages
- High-performance safety switch with manual mechanical delay.
- Approx. 20 second unlocking delay improves operator safety.
- High actuator holding force (K21 version) for secure guard locking.
- Separate actuator for flexible installation.
- Positive opening contacts ensure safe disconnection.
- Designed for industrial safety interlock systems.
Key Features
- Pizzato FP series safety switch.
- Manual mechanical delay (approx. 20 s).
- 1 NO + 1 NC slow-action contacts.
- Positive opening safety contacts.
- High-strength actuator locking system (K21).
- IP67 protection rating against dust and water ingress.
- Glass-reinforced technopolymer housing.
Controlled Safety for Hazardous Machinery
The FP6R2-FK21 is designed for machinery where immediate access could present a serious hazard. Its integrated delay mechanism ensures that guards remain locked until all dangerous motion has ceased, significantly reducing the risk of injury caused by residual movement or stored energy.
Its reinforced actuator locking capability makes it ideal for applications requiring high resistance to forced opening, ensuring compliance with modern machine safety standards.
Typical Applications
- Guard locking systems requiring high holding force.
- Machinery with long stopping times or stored energy.
- Industrial automation and production lines.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- OEM machinery and safety control systems.
